Lost In Translation (2003)
Bob Harris (played by Bill Murray) is an American film actor, far past his prime. He visits Tokyo to appear in commercials, and he meets Charlotte (Scarlett Johannson), the young wife of a visiting photographer. Bored and weary, Bob and Charlotte make ideal if improbable travelling companions. Scarlet is looking for "her place in life," and Bob is tolerating a mediocre stateside marriage. Both separately and together, they live the experience of the American in Tokyo. Bob and Charlotte suffer both confusion and hilarity due to the cultural and language differences between themselves and the Japanese. As the relationship between Bob and Charlotte deepens, they come to the realization that their visits to Japan, and one another, must soon end. Or must they?. Het mooie aan deze film vond ik dat ie zo verschillend is van al die andere Hollywood-films. Genomineerd voor een aantal Oscars en zal er waarschijnlijk ook wel wat winnen. Mijn score : 7.5/10. IMDB Score : 8.2/10 (#140 in top 250).
