Description

This multiple award winner from Tom Tykwer (The Princess And The Warrior) stars Franka Potente as Lola, the orange-haired punk girlfriend of Manni (Moritz Bleibtreu), a small-time courier for a big-time gangster. Manni is working a standard pickup/drop-off, and everything is going fine until an unforeseen incident makes Lola late to pick him up. One stroke of bad luck leads to another, and by the time Manni calls Lola, he has a big problem: He is supposed to meet his unforgiving boss in 20 minutes with 100,000 marks that suddenly he does not have. Lola rushes out of her apartment, attempting to get to Manni and somehow pick up 100,000 marks along the way. As the seconds tick down, the tiniest choices become life-altering (or -ending) decisions, and the fine line between fate and fortune begins to blur.

    One of my favorite movies of all time and at 75 years old I’ve seen a lot of movies!

    Movie, I love….however…iTunes seems to ne incomplete. Disappointing to buy it only to learn it doesn’t show English subtitles (oddly it has some English CC but that just says things like [man speaking] and doesn’t translate from German). They need to fix this. Interestingly when I view it on my iPhone I do see English subtitles. Go figure. Can somebody figure out what is going on?

  • Love the movie

    I’m watching the movie in my lit class right now, and wanted to rent it for a project i have to do. After two years, there’s still no subtitles! Big bummer!!

    This idea of multiple timelines has been done before and better. This fails for me due to the unsympathetic characters. The leads are just amoral crimininals, so I don't care what happens to them. That just makes the story pointless. A wasted effort.

  • Great Film with English Subtitles

    Hang on to your seats for a multilevel ride of a story. I saw this film years ago at The Seattle International Film Festival. It is a twisted film thast like that Japanese film not only tell the story from different viewpoints, but with a different result each time through. It enven takes a lot in Anime. This is a fantastic film WITH English subtitles. Make sure you go into Settings on your Mac or Apple TV. Turn on Subtitles. Enjoy!!! No Extras, but for $4.99, it's a great buy of a fantastic film.

    Rented the movie prior to getting on a long flight only to discover mid flight there were no English subtitles although iTunes Store said there was. Bummer.

  • Awesome!

    Tom Twyker is an interesting talent. Love him or hate him, this is the height of his directorial skill, in my opinion. It’s an existential action film that packs a surprising emotional punch. Bought this a long time ago. It is not an English language film, though. So, if you’re not into dubs or subtitles, stay away.
