## Resource

In the mood for a quiet night in, Rob introduces Gila to Fritz Lang's 1927 silent scifi drama "Metropolis." How will Gila take to such a large dose of iconic German expressionism from between the World Wars? How much delicate explaining will Rob have to do? What's with all that floppy hair? Listen along as we break some new ground of our own. Wikipedia link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropolis_%281927_film%29 Questions? Comments? Suggestions? We'd love to hear from you!
