2003 Directed by Sofia Coppola
Two lost souls visiting Tokyo -- the young, neglected wife of a photographer and a washed-up movie star shooting a TV commercial -- find an odd solace and pensive freedom to be real in each other's company, away from their lives in America.

For the sake of science, I am going to take the most liked review of this movie, Google Translate it into Japanese, then Google Translate it back into English. Let's see what happens.
Original review by Lisa Bettany: "Who doesn't love a movie that starts on Scarlett Johansson's bum?"
Lisa Bettany's review Lost in Translation: "Who starts in the ass of Scarlett Johansson, you do not love movies?"
I always manage to get incredibly anxious and wary over the prospect of rewatching the films that I love. To the point where my favorite films intimidate me, they scare me. Because if I saw such a clear reflection of myself in them at one point in my life what if when I look back into them I can't see my reflection anymore? What if I changed and didn't notice? What if the love I felt so strongly before turned out to be just transient white noise? What if.
Ebert once said that a favorite film is one you can watch over and over again and continuously fall in love with in new ways. He was right and I am…
Sofia Coppola you fucking weirdo.
I was really looking forward to this.
Lost In Translation takes a look at a blossoming love affair between 2 Americans isolated in Japan. My problem with this is that I found the depiction of Japan and of Japanese people by the film to be, how do I say, dogshit. Like half of the film's runtime is Bill Murray making fun of the fact that the Japanese people don't have perfect English pronunciation while completely ignoring the fact that they speak two languages while he speaks one. The jokes get way more racist and uncomfortable than that, but I don't want to spoil the gut-busting humor that Sofia Coppola packed into this Oscar for Best…
Hate this movie so much that it's probably David Ehrlich's favorite film of all time
loved the two ladies in the waiting room of the hospital who couldn’t stop chuckling in the background throughout the whole scene
Look over here. Look at this pretty, pretty film. Look at this wacky and vibrant city they call Tokyo. Look at the ocean of neon signs and how the city seems to come alive at night because of them. Listen to the busy crowds, the clinking of glasses. Listen to the girl as she takes on half the world. Listen to the old man and the young girl whisper, then watch as the city swallows up their words, the giant wave of Japanese phrases drowning theirs. Look at these two lost souls finding each other at the right place but the wrong time. Look at the exhaustion in their eyes, hear the regret in their sighs. Forget that they're actors,…
There are films, and then there are films that act as reflections. They allow the viewer to take away what they want from the film, as well as pondering the nature and details of the characters. Lost In Translation is a film that I had never seen before, and it's one experience that has been greatly lacking in my life. The emotion and beauty in this film is staggering, even monumental. The characters feel real, and the setting reflects their feelings and thoughts. Simply put, Lost In Translation is an astonishing movie that I completely fell in love with.
The Awesome: Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson have electric chemistry in this film, both crackling with energy and emotion. The screenplay…
“Let's never come here again because it would never be as much fun.”
A beautiful sadness slowly but surely permeates Sofia Coppola’s sophomore feature, Lost in Translation, a portrait of two lost souls yearning for purpose and meaningful connection. Bob and Charlotte are at an impasse in their lives where they mutually feel neglected by loved ones and disoriented by the greater outside world.
Bob is a fading Hollywood actor in a midlife crisis. Charlotte is a young woman apprehensive about her future. Finding an odd solace and familiarity in their shared struggle, they unexpectedly encounter a blossoming intimacy that reignites their curiosity of life and sense of belonging; they both recognise something in their connection achingly pure that transcends…
well now i want to run through the neon lit streets of tokyo with my soulmate ....... i'm sad
As vezes me pego pensando que eu amaria mil vezes mais esse filme se no lugar do bill fosse um ator bonito e o ship neles não me fosse barrado por ele parecer o pai dela, de resto o filme é perfeito Scarlet Johanson inventou a egirl de cabelo rosa.
filme chato, medíocre, não tem NADA de interessante, apenas brancos reclamando de tudo e de todos e sendo racistas. odiei se vc gostou desse filme eu te vejo como um idiota que acha que os asiáticos “criaram” o coron4 virus
Watched this Movie for the Very First time Today; I've been wanting to watch it for last 2 or 3 Years.
Well Today I finally watched it and needless to say; I was not disappointed by it, I very much enjoyed it the Movie.
I thought the film had an excellent Soundtrack list; the Cinematography was great, The Performances were excellent and definitely one of both Bill Murray & Scarlett Johansson's (who was actually 17 at the time when this Movie was being filmed and was 18 when it was released) best movies.
If You haven't seen the Movie; I highly recommend checking it out it's fantastic.
I rate it: 8.5 Out Of 10
Note: This is My First Review on Letterboxd (so I do apologize for some typeing errors)

Un film qu'il est plutôt franchement bien : acteurs géniaux, BO au œil, décors magnifiques super bien filmés... Mais en terme de thématiques, il me donne vraiment une vibe de bourgeois problems. Surtout qu'il s'y passe franchement pas grand chose. Mais je l'aime bien quand même. Je crois juste qu'il m'énerve un peu.
i bought this on dvd at a thrift store bc i heard it had a great soundtrack. meh, first mistake. waste of money.
the film per se wasn't bad, i liked the cinematography a lot and the soundtrack was nice, as well but i just couldn't ignore how blatantly racist this was, making fun of japanese culture and their language ALL the fucking time. also, i just didn't get why they would fall in love, what does a 20 year old (i mean scarjo was 17 when the movie was made) want with a 50 year old. i also didn't really think it was funny, apparently people found it funny?? the movie just leaves me with a weird feeling.
The performances are so good, this film just isn't for me. I comprehend the vibe, I understand the vibe, I felt the depression and I didn't want it.
