    Honestly, despite the movie being nearly a century old, the electronic instruments actually kind of fit for this scene, giving it that old-timey vision of the future vibe. I genuinely believe if synth type instruments were around when this was made, this probably would've been the exact kind of music they'd use.

      I disagree for several reasons. Early electronics were far less expressive than acoustic instruments and difficult to control Also, film music tradition relied heavily on late romantic/early 20th century composers for the most part.

    Metropolis is the most technically advanced and revolutionary film of all time. the film was produced in 1927, cost the unbelievable sum of 5 million Reichsmarks and was a financial debacle. the audience and the critics tore the film and the production company UFA had to be sold in 1927. the original was then stored and all cinema copies destroyed. the film was just too far ahead of its time.
