Lost in Translation, the most beautiful love story that isn't quite a love story

Rating: 10/10 (11 January 2019)

There is never a bad time to watch this. It's so perfectly shot, the cinematography is absolutely gorgeous. The soundtrack completely sweeps my off my feet every time I hear it.
The most striking scene to me would probably have to be when they're lying on the bed together and Charlotte asks Bob:
"Does it get easier?"
Their relationship is portrayed so beautifully, it's amazing how two people who should be at completely different points in life can still have so much in common. Watching these two strangers grow closer until they inevitably have to say goodbye feels very intimate, in a way. It touched me more than any openly romantic film I've ever watched.
It's odd because on the one hand this movie always makes me feel melancholic but I would also consider it comforting.
