Transcendence

Rating: 9/10 (3 January 2004)

Bill Murray is transcendent in the role of a faded movie star in Japan for an advertising gig. The movie is hip, yet somehow reminiscent of 1950's sweet romance...it is direct and immediate, yet complicated.
A perfect 10 by Murray, with a great supporting performance by Scarlett Johansson... and superb direction by Sophia Coppola... (the apple doesn't fall very far from the tree..)
