Revealing mistake: When Lola screams and the glass clock smashes, you can see the small pellet that makes it shatter, go through the glass and then bounce off the wall. (00:20:40)
Run Lola Run (1998)
Directed by: Tom Tykwer
Starring: Franka Potente, Moritz Bleibtreu, Herbert Knaup, Nina Petri
Revealing mistake: When there is a car crash, and a motorcyclist flies over one of the cars, as he rolls towards the windshield we see the whole windshield intact. Then when the motorcyclist rolls and hits the windshield, large cracks are clearly visible, way before the man hits the glass. (01:00:30)
Continuity mistake: After the failed accident, you can see Lola's bra revealed on the right side. After a cut, the shirt covers it.
Trivia: The blind woman is played by Monika Bleibtreu, Mannie's (Moritz Bleibtreu's) real mother.
Trivia: I always thought it was very funny that the boyfriend in need of money is actually called Mannie.Then of course it's also funny that the running girl's name is Potente and the faithful boyfriend is played by (Moritz) Bleibtreu =stay true/faithful. And these are the actors' real names.
Manni: What happened to you? Did you run here?
Herr Schuster: The ball is round, a game lasts 90 minutes, everything else is pure theory. Off we go.
Question: I don't understand the scene in the casino. She screams and the roulette ball hits her number. What happened here?
Chosen answer: In the casino scene, Lola breaks the "rules" several times. She doesn't have enough money for a 100 mark chip, she defies the dress code, and the scream is a manifestation of her willpower overriding the laws of chance and probability itself to make the ball land on the number 20 twice in a row.

Answer: He stares at her thinking that she is a prostitute. After he makes some snide remarks, he relizes that she is Lola and has a heart attack. She later basically saves his life by simply holding his hand in the ambulance.
