Many of the
images, ideas and characters, first seen in this birth of science
fiction cinema still prevail today, setting the standard for modern
practitioners. The story itself, the timeless struggle between
capital and labour, conjures up images as powerful and relevant
as when it was first released. A truly landmark film.
Critics
"Few
films have ever been more visually exhilarating... the first great
sci-fi film... astonishing originality" - Roger
Ebert.
