...this new version became possible when Paula Felix-Didier, the curator of Buenos Aires' cinema museum (and Metropolis fan), decided to sift through old archive material, following a tip-off from a former film club director, and discovered two dusty film cans containing a 16mm copy of the original. Felix-Didier took the material to Berlin to have film experts, amongst them Rother and Wilkening, confirm its authenticity before exclusively allowing the German weekly Die Zeit to make the findings public. Indeed, it has subsequently come to light that a long version of the film was first sent to Buenos...

At Cannes, you simply will not find, say, a film on Northern Ireland's Troubles that is sympathetic to its English occupiers, or an Israeli film hostile to the Palestinians. This year, Hunger, the story of IRA leader Bobby Sands' fatal hunger strike in 1981, won the Camera d'Or (debut film) prize for Afro-Irish director Steve McQueen; and Waltz With Bashir, an animated documentary about Israeli filmmaker Ari Folman's sense of guilt over the Sabra and Shatila massacres of Palestinian refugees...
