    Metroplis - the visuals in this 1927 film remain stunning in every way. Just a seminal piece of science fiction.

    And thus our tenth and final part of The Great Movie Tournament comes to an end, and our best film of the 1920s is Metropolis (1927), directed by Fritz Lang.

    Nearly 100 years later, and then name of Metropolis still holds sway in the hearts and minds of cinema lovers. I love that.
