Of course, I love Freddie Mercury. Just his moustache alone would make me his slave.
I also am wild for the film Metropolis, both for the overall look of it and the way the actors flail around the screen.
Combining the two was brilliant, and this video is able to edit the whole movie down to a brisk 4 minutes. My favorite part is Maria's hoochy koochy dance. I often recreate it when I'm all alone.

ReplyDeleteSuuuch a striking movie. The images are so vivid, the scenery so beautifully designed. The scene when the robot opens her eyes gives me shivers every time.
