Details RUN LOLA RUN (Tom Tykwer, 1998, 35mm, 80 mins)
Tykwer’s third feature is a ​“hyperkinetic pop culture firecracker” (Kenneth Turan) starring Franka Potente and Moritz Bleibtreu. With propulsive editing, kinetic camerawork, bursts of animation, and a pulsing electronic score, it follows the tangerine-haired Lola as she careens through the streets of Berlin in a dash to save her boyfriend who’s on the hook for losing a gangster’s loot. In a race to beat the clock, split-second decisions have seismic consequences. The thriller won seven German Film Awards, including German Film of the Year. ​“RUN LOLA RUN is fun, fun, fun” (Rick Groen)! 35mm print from the Yale Film Archive.

​“Sundance Revisited” features a selection of films from our collection that had their American or world premieres at the festival.
