The move is silence. It was made in 1927 and was nearly lost the world. Some parts we see today are remakes later added because so much of the original was destroyed.

Books that I've written are "Clash with the Immortals, and eleven others which are part of the "Unholy Pursuit saga,". She has been working on the Chronicles since 2007. She wished to complete them all before introducing them to public so the readers wouldn't have to for the continuation to be written. The ideas of the book come from classic literature such as whose work greatly influence the world world such as Homer, Sophocles, Herodotus, Euripides, Socrates, Hippocrates, Aristophanes, Plato, Aristotle and many more. The "Book of Enoch" influenced the usage of Azazael as a main character and love interest. I created the primary main character from the Chronicle of Saints. I wanted to show them as real flesh and blood with thoughts, desires and yearning as any human. Not as they are so often depicted. So I created one of my own to show her as a real human that everyone can relate to.

It is also based on a novel, apparently. It is a true classic.

  Yes, I heard it was based upon a novel. A book I haven’t read yet. According to what I found on the book it was written in 1925. Metropolis is a novel by the German writer Thea von Harbou. The story is set in 2026 in a technologically advanced city. I know the movie was made in 1927. I don’t see the big deal about it as to why it was banned. I can see where Brave New World and 1984 took their outlines from Metropolis. I was reading the author’s autobiography and it proves unconventional for a woman that era.
