Run Lola Run (1998)

I'm not sure how exactly I came across this film, but it was before this project was anywhere near inception, and I remember it being a clever and interesting film.

Where others before it had shown parallel story lines, or even intersecting cuts of the same timeline, Lola shows the same time line in three different ways. How can your actions, however minute, affect the entire lives of others?

Depending on the route taken by her, and her footsteps on that path, she will alter her own, her boyfriends, and several incidental characters lives. All without becoming a pretentious art film.
