1920's Number One Film

HEY GUYS! Welcome back to Carl's Take! If you are new to Carl's Take, welcome! Now that we have established the roots of how film started I would like to get into certain eras of film. I want to cover the top movie or movies from that time, and why they were top. So let's dig into a film in the 1920's!

First off in the top spot for several years in the 20's is Metropolis. Running 153 minutes this movie was set in a futuristic world, where there is a social division between the city workers and city planners. This type of movie had not been thought of and seen yet, so many believed it could be true. Director Fritz Lang made a very convincing and eye catching film in a time where airing it may be somewhat risky. Some say this film started science fiction as we know it! So check out this awesome trailer for the movie!



I hope you have enjoyed Carl's Take! Please stay tuned for new posts and videos!
