Rather, it is now (more or less) the film that Fritz Lang always meant it to be but which, for almost its entire lifespan after its 1927 premiere, lacked long passages of lost footage – only for a near-complete print to be located in a dusty corner of a Buenos Aires film museum back in 2008, with the hitherto missing scenes authenticated and slotted into a new edit.This we'd like to see. We like Metropolis so much we stole a few seconds of it just a few yrs. back.An excellent excuse to post even more crap that's old enough to have voted twice already.

Metropolis returns. The Guardian's typist approves. We're on the bandwagon too, especially w/ added footage & an (alleged) director's cut. ("Really, he would have wanted it this way.")
