Another related restoration, or rather reconstruction, is the remake of the Machinenmensch. The original costume was long lost and this reconstruction is almost a true copy of the original. Albeit al lot slimmer.
To top it all off, you can watch this movie in the theatre!!! This movie will play betwee June 11 and 20 at the Detroit Film Theatre, and from Sept. 11 till 14 at the Michigan Theatre in Ann Arbor.
This is history.
