  3. I don't think of Run Lola Run as an independent film in the way that Living In Oblivion is indie. I do love Run and thought Franka Potemke made the first two Bourne films more deeply realized and entertaining. She's a great actress.

    I hate the American version of Run that is dubbed with high pitched American voices. The voices of the characters in the original German film are part of the story.
