The 1998 German film, Run Lola Run seems longer than only 81 minutes. The same event happens 3 times and each time it gets better and better. Lola needs to fulfill a task that helps her boyfriend who is at risk of being killed if she doesn't come up with 100,000 dollars in 20 minutes. This film seems longer than what it is because it shows the same event happen 3 times with different ways of Lola getting the money.
This film is really cool because it shows animation and reality. I was really attracted to the soundtrack and the bright red color of Lola's hair. It really grasp my attention how there was so many different kinds of lighting in this film. There was black and white, and all red scenes when Manni and Lola are laying in bed together talking about their love for each other. The editing caught my eye because I enjoyed how they created quick flashes of people and places in a certain scene. For example, in the beginning of the film when Lola is trying to figure out who to ask for help, it flashes quickly to so many faces of who she is thinking of. This film is thrilling and has issues of fate and destiny about each person who Lola runs into. I recommend watching this film because it's high sense of urgency really drew me in and it is spontaneous editing.
