Run Lola Run?

Yesterday, we released our 100th webisode. You can check it out here and of course, do not forget to leave your comments and thoughts. It is always good to get some feedback.

It was Olivia who came up wth the idea for a 'run' to go with Nick's club beat. But I wanted to take that idea one step further and pay homage to one of the great films of all time, 'Run Lola Run'.

For me, German cinema is probably one of the most underrated schools of film in the world. Germany is funky, vibrant and unafraid to tackle its past. Two world wars and a partitioned country for much of the late Twentieth Century has given German film makers fertile ground for some of the most innovative cinema ever. Apart from Run Lola Run a couple of other classics are the hilarious Goodbye Lenin and the magnificently filmed The Downfall, which is possibly one of the greatest movies of all time.

So there you have it is not all Bollywood, El Director also loves German Cinema. And if you have not done so already, check those films out - you will not regret it.
