It was shown in Berlin with the extra 30 mins previously thought to be lost. Hopefully a widespread DVD is not far away.

This is one of those movies that I've never seen, but always meant to get around to watching.  Guess I have a good excuse for waiting now.   :smile:

Hmmm... I wonder if George Lukas will restore Metropolis like he did with Star Wars...

I'm happy to hear but I'm a little confused... I remember hearing the orginal version something like 6 hours long... was that true?

Maybe you're thinking of GREED (1924).
