Using Running to Highlight Feminism——A Comment on the Artistic Features of the Movie "Lola Run" German director Tom Tykwer directed "Lola Run" in 1998, which is a brand-new film contributed by Germany to the world cinema in the new century. Through novel narrative structure and visual impact audio-visual language, Lola, a socially representative female character, expresses to the audience that the era of feminism is coming! Feminist characters. The external image of Lola's red hair and white vest is running in the city. Unlike the previous elegant and dignified heroines, Lola has a feminist image that is undefined and does not care about other people's eyes. The TV animation of Lola going down the stairs three times uses acrobatic montage, from the first escape to the second tripping and finally back to intimidation, which also reflects the awakening of Lola's feminism and the development of the character's character towards feminism. The first two times Lola asked her father to get money and the last time she went to the casino independently to win 100,000, which reflected the awakening of Lola's independent personality. At the same time, Lola also represented the awakening of feminism and independent personality of the majority of women. The director shoots the running situation of Lola from an upward angle, which reflects Lola's heroic image with a sense of authority, praises the feminist women represented by Lola, and also highlights the theme of feminism. From the lines of Lola's father, it can be seen that Lola's mother is not friendly to her father at home. In the film, Lola's mother has no job and stays at home all day watching TV and chatting with friends on the phone. This is a manifestation of deformed feminism, and we can't help thinking about feminism. The real meaning of it is equality between men and women, not a feminist society. Unique narrative structure. This film uses the origin distribution structure, Lola's life can be restarted like a game, which is also a unique feature of the origin distribution structure. Using the origin-distributed structure, the film tells the story of Lola's three runs, each more passionate, and more successful each time. This is a symbol of the gradual victory of feminism, and it is the feminism that Laura shows by running. "Lola Run" pushes the narrative structure of the origin-scattering structure to the pinnacle of film and television. Subtle and far-reaching theatrical props. The red phone that connects the 3 runs highlights the tension and passion of Lola's running, rendering a tense atmosphere. The red ambulance and the red plastic bag in the bank robbing money depict a tense environment, implying the development of the plot, and implying that death is imminent, paving the way for Lola to be shot and killed by the police. The clock in the shape of a small monster with sharp teeth not only expresses the ruthlessness of time passing and the devotion of time to human life, but also reflects the gamification of the film, which enhances the audience's sense of tension when watching the film and increases their interest in watching the film. A pistol that symbolizes power. In the hands of most of the male characters in the film, Lola also picked up the pistol in the film, reflecting Lola's feminist symbolic character. At the end, Manny gave the pistol to the beggar, indicating that the man gave the right to the pistol. Hand it back to society, the era of equality between men and women is coming, and the battle of feminism is about to be won. "Lola Run" takes the audience into the world of feminism in the way of beautiful women saving "heroes", which makes people feel happy or sad, relaxed or heavy with Lola. In the end, with its unique narrative method, rich visual symbols and clever use of sound and picture, the film vividly showed the feminism represented by Lola to the audience, deepened the theme of feminism, and allowed the audience to watch the film after the end. Still deeply aftertastes.
