Germany 1957: Lola (Barbara Sukowa), a seductive cabaret singer–prostitute,
exults in her power as a tempter of men, but she wants more—money, property,
and love. Pitting a corrupt building contractor (Mario Adorf) against the new
straight-arrow building commissioner (Armin Mueller-Stahl), Lola launches an
outrageous plan to elevate herself in a world where everything—and everyone—is
for sale. Shot in childlike candy colors, Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s Lola, an
homage to Josef von Sternberg’s classic The Blue Angel, is a
wonderfully satirical tribute to capitalism. (1981, 115 mins)
