Chocolat (2002) Movie Review
“Chocolat” is a cheat. For me, that is. The movie has gotten a lot of exposure, what having been nominated for a Best Picture Oscar and all.

“Run Lola Run,” if nothing else, certainly lives up to its billing. Our heroine, played by a orange-haired Franka Potente as the titular character, certainly does a lot of running. I’ve never seen a movie by Tykwer before, but he’s certainly someone to watch out for. There is something incredibly strange about “Run Lola Run.” [...]
