I'm not a big fan of silent films, but I do like the original "Metropolis";
one problem with silents is that the actors tend to overact/emote to make up for
the lack of dialogue. I've already stated I'd consider
using colortints in certain scenes and not in others; the music groups I
listed were available back then and should have been affordable. I too liked the 1984 version, and felt some of the
colortints improved upon the original; some of the score numbers come across as OK, but others are incongruous to me - and at times, I felt
I was getting that "Flashdance" feeling. It would be my intuitive
choice at this point to use German music groups whose music would resonate
with and amplify the theme, tone, mood and atmosphere of "Metropolis". In
lieu of the lack of dialogue, an optimal musical score would enhance the already stunning set design and visual effects of the film.
By doing that, one could maximize an already great film, and increase its
enjoyability to boot. - AH
