Default Metropolis (1927)

This black and white German science fiction movie is noteworthy for its biblical themes set in a dystopian world. The poor labor underground so the elites can live lives of leisure in Art Deco skysc****rs. Turner Classic Movies recently aired a restored version made from lost footage found in 2010 in an Argentinian film museum.

This film has inspired everything from Superman to C3PO in Star Wars to Dr. Strangelove. H.G. Wells thought that it was silly and wrote "Things to Come" as his response.

There are a few risque scenes. There are a couple of scenes with dancers who are topless under sheer blouses. And, this scene where Brigitte Helm performs an erotic dance in a nightclub for almost a minute wearing bejeweled pasties. This clip is watermarked, so I can only post the link.
