October 15, 2007 By Professor Arielle Saiber

fritz-lang-metropolis-1927“At about 80-90 minutes into the film, the Seven Deadly Sins with Death are presented as statues in a church. Death is playing a bone as if it were a flute, and the statues of the Seven Deadly Sins come to life.”    –Ian Eternick
