The BBC and the Americas
Topic: Buenos Aires Historical

I always enjoy a good story, and all during these years working the web I have always found that the BBC not only writes a good story on any news or subject that they come across but also dedicates some good writing time to our America, meaning the South America of the American Continent. To many people always confuse America with only the North America, and in reality we are 2 different cultures and not only the difference of one hemisphere to another. But this is another story and now for the bit of the news that the BBC gave us on a great collectors find. Read on,......

Long-lost Metropolis scenes shown

Metropolis
The footage comes from a copy made before distributors cut

Lost scenes from the classic sci-fi film Metropolis have been shown for the first time in decades.

The long-lost original cut of Fritz Lang's 1927 silent film was discovered in the archives of the Museum of Cinema in Buenos Aires earlier this year.

The museum's Paula Felix-Didier said it was the only copy of the complete film. Metropolis depicts a 21st Century society divided between a class of underworld workers and the "thinkers" above who control them.

Soon after its initial release at the height of Germany's Weimar Republic, distributors cut Lang's three-and-a-half-hour masterpiece into the shorter version since viewed by millions worldwide.

But a private collector carried an original print to Argentina in 1928, where it has stayed, Felix-Didier said.

'Overjoyed'

In the 1980s, Argentine film fanatic Fernando Pena heard about a man who had propped up a broken projector for "hours" to screen Metropolis in the 1960s - but the version of the film he knew was only one-and-a-half hours long.

For years, he begged the Buenos Aires' museum to check their archives for the man's longer version.

This year, museum researchers finally agreed and in April uncovered the reels in the museum's archive.

Metropolis
The scenes were shown for the first time to a group of journalists

In June, Felix-Didier flew with a DVD to the Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau Foundation in Wiesbaden, Germany, which owns the rights to Metropolis. They confirmed that the extra scenes were from the original.

"We were overjoyed when we heard about the find," Helmut Possmann, head of the foundation, told Reuters.

"We no longer believed we'd see this. Time and again we had had calls about supposed footage but were disappointed."

Around 20 to 25 minutes of footage that fleshes out secondary characters and sheds light on the plot would be added to the film pending restoration, Possmann said, but around 5 minutes of the original was probably still missing.

Released in 1927, the silent film was not a commercial success and nearly ruined the studio behind it.

Soon after its premiere, the movie was heavily cut to make it more accessible, and several new versions of varying lengths emerged.

"The film hasn't left the museum and it won't leave until the city government and the Murnau Foundation decide what to do," Felix-Didier said.

Thank you BBC.

Hallan secuencias de "Metropolis" en Buenos Aires

 

Unas tomas olvidadas de la obra maestra del cine mudo, "Metrópolis", de Fritz Lang, fueron descubiertas en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, informó en Wiesbaden, Alemania, la Fundación Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau

Dormían en un depósito porteño hace 16 años

LANACION.com | Espectáculos | Jueves 3 de julio de 2008
De este modo podrá finalmente ser reconstruida la obra de Lang, el maestro de todos los filmes de ciencia ficción, y presentarlo de nuevo a todo el mundo", dijo a la agencia noticiosa alemana Ansa el presidente del Comité Directivo de la Fundación, Eberhard Junkersdorf.


Télam pudo saber que el hallazgo fue obra de la investigadora Paula Félix Didier (nueva directora del Museo del Cine porteño Pablo Ducrós Hicken), en colaboración con Fernando Martín Peña, periodista y director del área de cine del Malba.


Las escenas recuperadas muestran un trayecto en auto por la "Metrópolis" que Fritz Lang concibió como ciudad del futuro y la relación entre tres personajes secundarios.


Las primeras observaciones del material hacen suponer que, pese a la baja calidad de las imágenes, se podrá reconstruir la obra maestra de ciencia ficción rodada entre 1925 y 1926.


Un despacho de la agencia DPA repasó que el clásico fue estrenado en su versión completa el 10 de enero de 1927, pero pocos meses después la película ya sólo fue exhibida en versiones abreviadas.


Según la Fundación Murnau, la película mostrada en el estreno en Berlín tenía un largo de 4.189 metros y una duración de más de dos horas. La copia encontrada en Buenos Aires tiene casi el mismo largo que la versión original y unos 700 metros más -25 minutos
más- que la versión abreviada alemana y estadounidense.
