File:Metropolis (1927).webm (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Hinnk (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

Copyright claims states "This image is in the public domain in the United States because it was first published outside the United States prior to January 1, 1929." However, the source listed is the Masters of Cinema blu-ray. I own a copy and in the liner notes it states "This product is licenced for private home use only. Any other use including copying, or reproduction in public in whole or in part, is expressly prohibited by applicable laws. While the film is out of copyright, we can't source home video copies like this. Andrzejbanas (talk) 21:14, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep For English Wikipedia, we go off the U.S. copyright status. The copyright notice on a UK release of the film isn't that pertinent, given that Metropolis remains under copyright there for another ~23 years. This file doesn't include the copyrightable elements of the release—the soundtrack is excluded, and you'll see that the subtitles don't use their English translation of the intertitles. The German intertitles use the original text as preserved in the German censorship records, the image faithfully reproduces the original footage, and any editing decisions made in previous restorations of the film were effectively undone by the discovery of more complete versions of the film. hinnk (talk) 01:03, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This product is still being sold online at a reasonable price. It should be possible to buy one and take a freely-licensed photo. Ixfd64 (talk) 21:24, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
