Lost In Translation

Sofia Coppola, 2003
editor: Sarah Flack
cinematography: Lance Acord

"Adrift in an unfamiliar place, two lonely people find each other. It's an old story, but Sofia Coppola's stunning second feature makes the developing relationship between stars Bill Murray (as a past-his-prime movie star scoring a quick buck shilling for Japanese whiskey) and Scarlett Johansson (as a young woman trying to find out how she fits in the world) feel as unpredictable as the sights and sounds of its bustling Tokyo streets. Their encounter is brief, but has any film better captured how a few in-between days can put life in focus?" -Keith Phipps
