明日をつかもう！！
この映画は脚本をデイヴ･クラーク自身が選別し許可を出したスタイリッシュな映画、日本では評価が不当に低いのが不満です。DVDで日本版を出して欲しいです。

A picture of Hel
In the back ground we see a picture of the Metropolis that was watched over by Johhan 'Joh' Fredersen (Alfred Abel). He stole the heart of Hel from C.A. Rotwang, der Erfinder “The Inventor” (Rudolf Klien-Rogge) and married her. It was speculated that Hel fell for Joh’s position of power more than love. Hel dies in child birth.

Rotwang being lonely invents a robot replacement for Hel. Rotwang loses a hand in the process. We see the machine person Hel on the poster the same way Joh saw it when he learned of its existence.

Meantime it looks like Jon’s son Freder Frederson (Gustov Fröhlich) has been smitten by a kindly girl Maria (Brigitte Helm) with a mission. This mention is stated in the beginning credits as the “Head” and the “Hands” will be brought together by the “Heart.”

Joh must squelch the son’s infatuation and put the workers in their place.

Looking at the sight of the machine person, an evil plan forms in Joh’s mind. Little does he know what is in Rotwang’s.

But we do.

Hel is the name of the queen of Helheim, the Norse underworld.

This is a 1927 movie, made at the UFA studios. Learn more of UFA in the book “The UFA Story: A History of Germany’s Greatest Film Company” by Klaus Kreimeier
