Wow, excellent film.

Rating: Null/10 (24 May 2004)

Charlotte and Bob are two lonely Americans caught in the hustle and bustle of Tokyo. Bob is doing a whiskey commercial and Charlotte is there with her workaholic photographer husband. A casual encounter in the hotel bar starts a short lived but powerful friendship that will last the rest of their lives.
Scarlett Johanssson and Bill Murray are wonderful together as the lonely couple. They both click very well together and both are charming and engaging. One of Murray's best performances and Johansson is definitely on the rise. Written and directed by Sofia Coppola the film is a gentle reminder of the bonds between close friends and their lasting effects. Shot and lit wonderfully Lost is a surprisingly touching film with charismatic performances and establishes Johansson and Coppola as Hollywood rising stars and Bill Murray as more than the hapless groundkeeper from Caddyshack. One of the best of 2003.
