It's wonderfully provocative as only Fassbinder can be.

Reviews for Lola

[An] interesting and rewarding experience for those who can appreciate German cinema and great directors at work.

Lola is a well-acted film which showcases Rainer Werner Fassbinder's laser-sharp social consciousness.
02/04/04
It'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.
09/18/06
Again 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.
03/30/04
A bitter, brisk, sometimes abruptly moving satire about the West German economic 'miracle' of the 50's.
