Oh, Habib, what a delightful story! Gave me some good chuckles.:) I also adore the redone version of Metropolis with the rock score.
You can certainly see the influence of the film in many newer sci-fi films, and even some that are not sci-fi.
Luckily, I recorded it when shown on PBS many years ago, as it is quite expensive to buy now. I even bought the soundtrack.
I like this wild little photo you've attached here in the comments, too.:) Thank you, Habib!:)

this is amazing.
i just want to start off by saying Metropolis is my favorite movie of all time! i remember the first time i watched it was by accident, i was only 6 and i was at the video library, the video cover caught my eye, i did not realize i was taking home a movie that was around 60 years old!
i had to enjoy my selection or else i would have got a backside whooping by my mother!
it was the Giorgio Moroder version you speak that i took home(i was/am a fan of electronica/pop especially in soundtracks or tv themes!), so i sat down to watch the cut down version of the movie for the first time.
i absolutely loved it, the story was perfect, and the music was fantastic to boot.
i do believe i was probably the youngest person i know of to have actually sat down to watch that movie & understand the true meaning at the age of 6.
okay, back to this photo, this is the reason why it had caught my eye scrolling thru your portfolio.
good work!
see-ya.

Thank you so very much, dear Doyle!:)
Have you seen the film? That is why her eyes look like that. Here is a link to the album cover so you can get the 'feeling': http://www.amazon.com/Metropolis-1984-Re-release-1924-Film/dp/B00000260Q

Nicely done Shirley . . . the eyes (to me) seem distracting - almost metal . . . but overall . . . a great job to you both and Stan's BG is a great choice here too . . . :)
Regards, Doyle I <~~~~~

That was the first thing I thought when I saw it. Dead on metropolis feel to it. The soulless eyes are perfect.

Shirley,
I can't decide if it's Art-Deco or Disco. A fine image either way!
Cheers, Terry

The spell has touched me ! The look in her eyes is... mesmerizing (is that enough ?). In great sync with the song : you could make it to the album cover.
