ABOUT THE FILM: Based on a classic manga by the late, great Osamu Tezuka (with whom Rintaro worked on such 1960s classics as “Astro-Boy” and “Kimba”), METROPOLIS is not a remake of the legendary Fritz Lang silent – although it’s not without similarities. In an enormous, retro-future city where robots and androids do most of the work, there is nonetheless great unrest. The government is a tool of the evil billionaire Duke Red, and the seeds of rebellion grow underground. Stir into this crucible of turbulence a young man, his detective uncle, a youthful assassin and an angelic blonde who doesn’t realize just what she really is, and the result is as compelling as it is eye-popping, and as unusual as the Swing-era music on the soundtrack. In Japanese with English subtitles. FORMAT: 35mm DISTRIBUTOR: Sony Repertory
