Does that make it actually entertaining for a modern audience? No. The moral of the story ranks on the absurd --- that the only thing that keeps an oligarchic society from being a problem is a lack of heart for the working class. So long as the uber rich love the working destitute, there's no problem with keeping the two classes separate. The scenes are more like elongated moving photos than actual scenes. People move about in repetitious ways in many of the scenes, not actually going anywhere or doing anything, but using their body motions to convey a feeling for the scene. Long stretches go by with the actors "talking" to each other, yet no dialog to explain what they are saying but for a sentence or two occasionally. It's hard to believe this film is separated from Gone With the Wind by only 12 years. See more Albert G. @RT62941283 Mar 30, 2026 Tremendous technical achievement, but a bit of a narrative shamble. The main character is a spoiled brat. Nonetheless, there are elements of its critique of technology and industrial society that are still relevant 100 years later. See more Read all reviews
