I have never noticed the section of the Berlin wall with the Maria / robot from Metropolis mural on it before - next to the gate-house on the right.



Leica M10 + 35mm Leica 35mm Summilux M f1:1.4. ISO 200, 1/750s at f1:8.0. PP in LR / PS and Nik ColorFX Pro 4.

I like the image, Pete, but have no idea what you are talking about (not for the first time ). I can't see Maria. Where exactly should I be looking?

Ah. Very good. The original film is stunning. It really blew me away when I first saw it.

I have yet to see the restored (and proper length and sequenced) version and only know the shorter, more common release.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Me too.

I saw the restored one and haven't seen the better known version. It really is a fabulous piece of work.
