Run Lola Run

This was one of the weirdest movies I have ever seen. It was interesting though because even though there was repetition about how every different story began, the ending changed a lot and it made me want to find out what was going to happen. I didn't think of it while watching it, but you mentioned that it was like a fairy tale because it was told in 3s. This already makes it mythical. It was a very dramatic film and certain things could not possibly happen. For example, when Lola screams and shatters the glass, or when she screams at the casino and gets the ball to roll exactly where she wants it to. I also thought it was unrealistic about how the time seemed to go very slow when she was running. For example, when she needed to meet Mannie by 12, it was 11:59 and she was still blocks away but somehow made it there by 12. I guess the movie sort of teaches a lesson too. The lesson would be to always do the honorable thing because in the last story, Lola does not steal money, she wins it and Mannie gets his money back from the homeless man who took it. The other stories didn't work out because they were stealing and using weapons to get what they needed.
