Lost in translation
It's about a middle aged American actor and a college graduate who meet in japan.
I am glad that I watched this movie. Though its looks a bit old as more than 15 years have passed since it's release. But the screenplay is amazing. The story line, music, dialogues everything still holds true at present. The acting looks effortless. It's not the quintessential romance were people meet and fall in love. It's about how they meet when they have their own crisis going on and how an unknown culture and country binds them into a companionship. It offers you everything drama, romance, emotions mixed with a dash of comedy. The story line flows smoothly and transitions so well from them being just
acquaintances to developing a platonic relationship and ultimately a deep sense of affection for one another. There is no mushy love or heartbreaks which one might expect. There is this soothing connect and bond between the leads mixed with a certain amount of lingering sadness. It ended on a pretty satisfying note according to me though I will always wonder about it.
