“Metropolis”
is not just a science fiction film but a work of class warfare, an another way to comparable attack on capitalism. The controlling rich symbolized by the greedy Joh Frederson and the lowly slave workers working down in the underground city. It is also a story of father and son struggles and the mad power of science to create mankind in its own image. Actually, I was very interseting at the very first of the story. I havent watched the black and white film before in my life and it was amazing! I am not feel so strange with the color or feel like it need some more color. It looks very classic and can show every feeling as good as the color film. The movie was start off with images of machine and engines. The scene was about the industrial wokers, they presented by make all of them look nothing different: same hair same cloth same shoes and even their walking step is also thesame. Obviously, it shows the feeling of workers' life, thier life were boring and no civilization. This film make me think about the "mob", is it possible for this film to want to make something to be sarcastic to the social. "Flash Mob" is the kind of mob that a group of people are making something for example dancing together at the crossroad, standing and doing nothing together in the supermarket. The concept is to be sarcastic about some topic, sone problem and they do same thing to gether at the same time to make it to be a big impact for the watcher. from the movie, it's like they try to show "how boring they are" by this scene of film, and if it a mob, it was successful.. it impact me a lot. ?
The fisrt half of this story is about Freder whose dad is built everything in this city, He grown up in the world of rich people, convenience and fully of happiness while the industrial workers are leaving underground, have a fully different life with freder. But one day, Freder was playing with her girl friends as usaul and he saw the mysterious girl, She was coming with many kids and then go back to the door. Freder try to find that girl, so he came in to the door where the industrial is located. And the story begin, from this scene, it's compose of a lot of machine and workers whose work all the time. In the underground world, it's like another city, they have similar house, no decoration and not much window or door. It's definitely different from the architecture in the town of freder. After he found this place, he tried to changed it by telling his father but it's not seem to be work. What freder willl do is the thing that I look forward to know in the next week class.
In my point of view, the architecture in this film is very amazing, it's like the future world, despite this film was built in 83 years ago, the hight rise building with autometic system and made out of glass, transportation by a sky train and private air plane. The craxy doctor who built a human robot. It is just amazing. I think that this film is not just an influence for many film director but it's also inspired many architecture, scientis or the workers to do something new. I am just waiting to watch the next half of it, hope that I'll got inspired from this film again...
