The Run

This is displayed in the film ‘Run Lola Run’ by Tom Tykwer and the picture book “The red tree” by Shaun Tan, which represent similar ideas and themes throughout these visual texts.

In this essay, i will be focusing on the middle section of Tom Tykwer’s Run Lola Run (Lola Rennt, 1998) starting at the bank where Lola takes her father hostage, demanding 100,000 Marks from the cashier, to the post death scene of Manni (45 minutes to 53 minutes).
