Linotype: the film DVD. The first use of Metro Nova.

There seems to be a misunderstanding that the film used Metro Nova (this article for instance), but it used the faithful digitisation of the hot metal Metro for the sake of authenticity. Everything made after the film itself, notably DVD cover and booklet, was set in Metro Nova.
