The Princess and the Warrior
"Endlessly imaginative and unpredictable... A dazzling fable of love, destiny and redemption." -Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
From the director (Tom Tykwer) and star (Franka Potente) of the internationally acclaimed, fast-paced smash hit Run Lola Run comes a startling fresh and compelling romantic drama that will leave you breathless.
When shy, beautiful nurse Sissi is the victim of a horrible car accident, a handsome small-time criminal miraculously saves her life. When she recovers, Sissi sets out to find him and discovers a violent man with a conflicted past and dangerous future. Soon, the two meet again in the middle of a deadly bank robbery, and Sissi realizes her fate is pre-destined. Or is it?

First the director tell a different kind of story. This movie is well acted by all and the story follows a bit of a winding path. I liked the move and if you are into the different takes on plot this is a good movie for you. Recommend you watch it at least once. REReview - Princess and the Warrior - maw-
Tom Tykwer's films are always a little different, but I like them. This film follows the story of a girl who works in a mental institution and becomes obsessed with a man who saves her life. It explores themes of fate, love, loss, obsession, loneliness and isolation, among others.A Beautiful Fable - nessmonster
I see that some of the other reviewers found this to be a slow movie and it is compared to Run Lola Run but I think it is a beautiful and moving story that made me feel like I was watching a fable. I was lucky enough to watch (and understand) it in German so I am not sure if that made a difference.
I really recommend this movie but only if you are in the mood for something subtle and touching.
