Whatever It takes!
Forget the cool german hi-techno music ( alone worth the viewing) and forget the subtitles; they are really unnecesary! This is about when desperation and hopelessness are offset by what human love will do to ward off the inevitable. Lola runs - man, does she run, and would that we could have such a runner on our side!Lola runs for and against all those things we write off to fate, but Lola runs to erase fate. Lola runs with one purpose in mind - love will find a way!Love will find a way where there is no way. Love will find a way where there is no hope. Love will find a way becuase that is what love does.Love is the joker in the deck. Love says "I recognize no rules!" Love doesn't give up and neither does Lola!Run, Lola, Run. For when Lola runs, resignation and surrender have met their match!Leave it to those cold-blooded germans to remind us what love is all about!This movie say in the most simplistic terms ( with some existiantial variations) that when it come to true love, fate and the universe are but a minor hurdle to leap over!This is a movie of desperation; it leaves no time for analysis. It tells us love must act, not think! See it!
