Plot Outline: In a futuristic city sharply divided between the working class and the city planners, the son of the citys mastermind falls in love with a working class prophet who predicts the coming of a savior to mediate their differences.
Plot: It is the future, and humans are divided into two groups: the thinkers, who make plans (but dont know how anything works), and the workers, who achieve goals (but dont have the vision). Completely separate, neither group is complete, but together they make a whole. One man from the "thinkers" dares visit the underground where the workers toil, and is astonished by what he sees...
Crazy Credits: We know about 2 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
In the opening credits, the roles of "The Creative Man", "The Machine Man", "Death" and "The Seven Deadly Sins" are listed, but no performers are named.
Goofs: We know about 5 goofs. Here comes one of them:
Continuity: When Fredersen and Rotwang leave Rotwangs laboratory to observe Marias secret meeting, they descend a spiral staircase that spirals clockwise. When they reach the bottom of the stairs, they are seen descending a spiral staircase that spirals counterclockwise. This is repeated when Freder uses the same staircase later in the film.
