Full Plot Details

Ten years after the war, West Germany's market economy is booming. Into an unnamed city that's rife with corruption comes a new building commissioner, Herr von Bohm, committed to progress but also upright. He's smitten by Marie-Louise, a single mother who's his landlady's daughter. Von Bohm does not realize she is also Lola, a singer at a bordello and the mistress of Schuckert, a local builder whose profits depend on von Bohm's projects. When von Bohm discovers Marie-Louise's real vocation and looks closely at Schuckert's work, will this social satire play out as a remake of "Blue Angel," a visit of Chekhov to West Germany, or an update of Jean Renoir's "Rules of the Game"?

Movie Reviews

Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 9/10 by Ken HankeI'm delighted to see someone running Rainer Werner Fassbinder's Lola. Actually, I'm just delighted to see someone running any Fassbinder film.
TV Guide - 9/10 by Michael ScheinfeldIt's a political fairy tale about duplicity and hypocrisy in which everything, including ethics and human flesh, is for sale, and self-esteem and worth is measured only in terms of money.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzIt's wonderfully provocative as only Fassbinder can be.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Bruce McCabe"Lola" is indelibly, ineffably Fassbinder, a demanding, compelling film that virtually imposes a reaction on its viewer. To realize that the intelligence behind these images has been stilled is to be truly saddened.
The Gate - 8/10 by Andrew ParkerA fascinating satire and skillfully mounted drama, Lola works because its post-World War II setting has a lot more in common with early 80s politics than I think most people at the time realized.
Film4 - 8/10 by Tom DawsonAgain Fassbinder returns to Germany's past to reveal the workings of its stagnant moral present to powerful effect, boldly combining melodramatic storytelling, vibrant performances, garish visuals and searching analysis.
CineVue - 8/10 by Christopher MachellLola transcends broad satire and, as with Fassbinder's best pictures, finds the raw humanity at the heart of the film's heightened reality.
User Review - 10/10 by Pasi VA masterpiece by Fassbinder, good story, humorous, great music and then Barbara Sukowa...
User Review - 10/10 by Carly RI loved this movie. Out of the BRD trilogy it's totally the best one.
User Review - 10/10 by Matthew TThis is probably my favorite Fassbinder film. It manages to create a happy ending that isn't really all that happy, like a Sirk film. It's a shame Fassbinder never worked Mario Adorf again, as his performance is fantastic and he almost steals any scene he's in.
