Let’s do the time warp again. We’re celebrating the 25th anniversary of the banner movie year of 1999 with the eye-popping restoration of this sensational film with style for days. Underrated journeyman Tom Tykwer—soon after a close confidant of simpatico cyberpunk visionaries the Wachowskis—races through a triptych of chaos theory in this German-language stunner, one of cinema’s greatest adrenaline rushes. Run Lola Run is as propulsive a movie as you’ll ever see, a pulse-pounding hypercapitalist techno fairy tale. When Lola’s partner, Manni, leaves a bag with 100,000 Deutsche Marks on the U-Bahn, she’s tasked with coming up with the cash in 20 minutes to save his life. Tykwer tells then retells then retells again this real-time dilemma as our rebel hero hustles across the city trying and trying and trying for a big score until she gets it right. Franka Potente sprinting through the streets of Berlin with her Kool-Aid red hair and powder blue tank top is one of the the signature images of the ’90s—an instant punk icon is born. ~OO
