Perhaps the most famous and influential of all silent films, Metropolis had for 75 years been seen only in shortened or truncated versions. Now, restored in Germany with state-of-the-art digital technology, under the supervision of the Murnau Foundation, and with the original 1927 orchestral score by Gottfried Huppertz added, Metropolis can be appreciated in its full glory. It is, as A. O. Scott of The New York Times declared, "A fever dream of the future. At last we have the movie every would-be cinematic visionary has been trying to make since 1927."

Metropolis takes place in 2026, when the populace is divided between workers who must live in the dark underground and the rich who enjoy a futuristic city of splendor. The tense balance of these two societies is realized through images that are among the most famous of the 20th century, many of which presage such sci-fi landmarks as 2001: A Space Odyssey and Blade Runner. Lavish and spectacular, with elaborate sets and modern science fiction style, Metropolis stands today as the crowning achievement of the German silent cinema. Kino is proud to present the definitive, authorized version of this towering classic, at a length over one-third longer than any previous release, for the first time on DVD.

《大都会》是朗格在乌发电影制片厂内拍摄的最昂贵的一部影片：类似纽约的摩天大楼，未来世界的机器人……都是在摄影棚内搭出来的布景。大都市——未来世界的城市，富人们住在摩天大楼内，而工人们只能在地底下工作与生活。工业主约汉·弗赖德森仔细地检查城市的每个角落，可他儿子弗赖德反对父亲的独裁统治，特别当他爱上了一位被压迫者玛丽娅后，企图帮助工人们摆脱工业主的剥削和压迫。弗赖德森意识到事情的危害，请发明家罗特万造了一个与玛丽特长得非常相似的机器人，以此来威胁工人们，这就是不听话人的下场，不过他的把戏不久被戳穿。影片最后工业主还是工人们握手言和。这样的结尾说明作者在当时政治情况下的妥协，也是不可信的。不过，本片特技，对未来现代化都市富有想象力的设想在世界影史上也享有很高声誉。
