Missing a thousand miles

The film is a bit like "The Birth of a Word" by Hong Kong director Wei Jiahui. "One" wants to talk about how people's poor choices will lead to different results. And "Lola" wants to talk about the truth of missing a thousand miles. The former is more subjective, the latter is more objective. The film is divided into three basically identical stories. Each episode starts with Lola running, and what Lola experiences in these three episodes differs only by a tiny bit, even a few seconds, and ultimately leads to very different endings for each of the characters in the three stories . A little difference can make or break things, for better or for worse. A small difference, a thousand miles away, should be the truth that the film wants to tell.

    Tom Tykwer is really a style. The opening is too big. Of course, these questions are very powerful, and they are also what I pondered over and over again. The problem is that I haven't seen you really discussing after that. The performance of the intersection of fate and the whole body can only be regarded as a superficial design. Of course, this inadequacy is just a little picky, it doesn't harm the film, it's cool enough anyway. A touch of red hair rushes around, DV sense shots, animations and photo insertions, the elements and techniques are all outstanding. →18.9.1 Two brushes.

Run Lola Run quotes

  • [first lines]

    [subtitled version]

    Narrator: Man... probably the most mysterious species on our planet. A mystery of unanswered questions. Who are we? Where do we come from? Where are we going? How do we know what we think we know? Why do we believe anything at all? Countless questions in search of an answer... an answer that will give rise to a new question... and the next answer will give rise to the next question and so on. But, in the end, isn't it always the same question? And always the same answer?

  • Manni: What if I were in a coma, and the doc says, "One more day?"

    Lola: I'd throw you into the ocean... Shock therapy.
