    This morning's film is Run Lola Run. Loved this movie years ago. Hoping it holds up well. Imdb says it cost 1.75m to make and made 23 million in ticket sales internationally. Proportionally, that's amazing. In actual numbers, not so much. I'm guessing it was only shown on a few screens.

    This is one of the first speaking films I saw in German film class in college ("Lola rennt". I believe in English it was called "Run Lola, Run").

    just got out of the theatrical release of Run Lola Run and it was better than i remembered. this is an easy recommendation for #filmsky. if you haven't, check out this film. it's not long, not heavy, yet entertaining and gives you plenty to think about. (listen to it as loud as possible)

    Favorite movie from 1999? At the time i probably would have said Dogma. Maybe Magnolia if i was trying to show off. Run Lola Run was a top contender. As was every movie in the quote chain before this. So many great movies from 1999, seriously But by Grabthar’s Hammer… i think this is it.

    Wow, so many replies to this! Your film/tv knowledge is impressive. My favourites are E.T., Lord of the Rings(!), Paddington, and Run, Lola, Run. And @davidho.bsky.social showed me a great Jackie Chan bike chase scene. But so many are pretty old films… we need to get today’s filmmakers on the case!

    Since it's a 26-year-old German film, I guess I should sing the praises of Lola Rennt (or in the US, Run Lola Run). It's an absolutely PERFECT film that never stops, has philosophical elements about destiny, an amazing performance by Franka Potente, just, perfect. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run_Lol...

    When Run Lola Run was released in the US I couldn't find a theater that was showing it and then I just never got around to watching it until tonight. I really enjoy this 90s hyper-kinetic film making style. I wouldn't want every movie to be this way, but I wish more were.

One of the most creative movies ever made * Run Lola Run - Surreal modern-style impossible narrative movie from way before movies really did that, also *very* well done * O Brother Where Art Thou - Damn, we're in a tight spot * Schindler's List - Warning, very very very heavy obviously, but there…
