The movie Berlin, Symphony of a Big City by Walter Ruttmann is so important as it highlights a different way to truly write films. The way that this movie is shot and produced is so different, especially for the 1920's. This type of movie was interesting as it showed a different stylistic narrative.
The work in Berlin, Symphony of a Big City is quite similar to many different popular movies and literature in terms of style, it is quite cut up much like a Tarantino film or a William Burroughs novel, which is what makes it so enjoyable. The movie is also a first as it really showed how "big city" life can actually be with the style of the film.
There were many parts in the movie, which was cut up into five chapters, that showed how people actually interact with their environments which is an interesting idea. It really gives the merging and bonding of people with their social environment and somehow separates that from the specific parts of the city.
The movie gives graphic details about how the city works individually from the people who live in it and adds people to function in the city until it erodes with chaos. This is such an interesting film as the idea of a specific city and the people that function in it doing specific things is very intriguing.
This movie is a must see as it shows what Berlin was like in the 1920s and shows how the people could act and the city would act and how people interacted with their city to their surprise and detriment. It is somewhat beautiful as it makes it seem like Berlin is special in its own right from the first part of the scene when nobody is really a main star yet.
