The translation of a good film

Rating: 8/10 (7 March 2008)

Nominated for three Academy Awards,Lost in Translation is a movie as the title suggests,needs no translation.It isn't complex nor simple in terms of it's storyline but there is one thing that it is;well written.It won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay(Sofia Coppola) who was also nominated for Best Director.The other Oscar nomination the film received was Best Actor-Bill Murray.It is completely original and has a good storyline.Bill Murray stars as Bob Harris who is an aging Hollywood movie star and meets Charlotte(Scarlett Johansson) by chance whilst in Tokyo.The movie is excellent in terms of the relationship shown between the two main characters which is what keeps the power of this film rolling.Highly recommended.
