NB: Ever since its very first release in 1927, Metropolis has been edited and re-edited several times over the years which resulted in different running time versions. Please find Below the main versions and their respective running time:
Time Mapping Considerations:
Most silent films were shot at slower speeds than "talkies" (sound films). Typically 16fps to 20fps frames per second for a silent film as opposed to the standard 24fps, so that unless special techniques are used to show them at their original speeds they can appear unnaturally fast, which reinforces their "unnatural" appearance. However, some silent films were intentionally undercranked to accelerate the action; this form of stylization was done with comedies far more often than with dramas.
We have time-mapped frame by frame using the latest technologies in order to reach a 24fps "natural pace" projection result which added 30 minutes to the 2h30 minutes 16fps original speed. NB: It might seem a little counterintuitive but the higher the frame rate, the smoother and slower the motion will appear in this specific case we slowed the motion in order to reach a full organic and natural pace.
