To bad the o-neg was destroyed in 1997 to create the special edition.

More metropolis footage is a welcome find and i will buy the next dvd edition from kino as i'm sure my public library will as well.

Kino also put out restored versions of siegfried and kriemhildes revenge by Fritz Lang. I believe they also have a version of his murder movie M.

Kino rules they put out the definitive douglas fairbanks sr. editions with the tri strip technicolor, as well as the restored nosferatu.

Criterion has released M. Go for the more current re-release depicted in the image following:

Great news indeed! I know the footage will be restored for the DVD and Blu-ray. Here's hoping Kino will also release more Buster Keaton, Douglas Fairbanks Sr., Nosferatu, Der Golem and other films under their banner.
