Sure, you could spend your time rating lads on Tindr, or you could just agree with me that Robin Hood is the sexiest Disney cartoon character.
A couple takes a date outside, sharing cheap wine, a few weird jokes, and then things go really sideways. The young woman asks if her date had a favorite cartoon character growing up. Like, a favorite. Like one they thought was really hot. What follows is an unfiltered, weird-as-hell conversation that makes, strangely, a lot of sense. The dialogue, while odd and off-color, yes, is charming and bizarrely relatable.
Newly-represented by OPC, director Sophia Smith delivers wit and weirdness in equal measure. Lola is a film that invites you to laugh at the characters, but doesn’t actually polish them into someone you’d want to hang out with. Ultimately absurd, Lola is a great showing from a talented new director.
