Show Notes
Jackie and Greg descend into the depths below the city of METROPOLIS, Fritz Lang's sprawling sci-fi touchstone from 1927. Topics of discussion include the grand scale and ambition of Lang's vision, how it inspired every piece of science fiction cinema that followed, the film's connection to the Nazi party, and whether its message and ending are worth a damn.
