It will change the way you think about life

Rating: 10/10 (17 December 2004)

"lost in translation" is not a big story. But it is a much bigger movie than the ones which tell huge, silly stories. Sofia Coppola's great success is her ability of showing us how forgettable our lives are. Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson help her with the best performances of 2003. And the music is terrific, too. Even though it has won a lot of awards, I still do think that it is underrated. But it is all about Sofia. Because if she hadn't lost something in translation, we wouldn't have a chance to see such a wonderful movie.
Sofia Coppola's script includes the most lovable characters I've ever seen. No matter how old are you, you can understand and love both bob harris and charlotte. So, to make friends with someone who lives a life just like yours, watch this movie.
