Lost in Translation
Directed by Sofia Coppola
Two lost souls visiting Tokyo -- the young, neglected wife of a photographer and a washed-up movie star shooting a TV commercial -- find an odd solace and pensive freedom to be real in each other's company, away from their lives in America. From TMDB

neutral · AI labelView post →#FilmHistory On this day, 2003, Sofia Coppola’s Lost in Translation was released in the US. One of cinema’s great unanswered moments: Bill Murray whispers something we never hear, Scarlett Johansson smiles through tears & “Just Like Honey” by The Jesus & Mary Chain carries the film into the credits.
neutral · AI labelView post →BTW, this joke was about the taste of the Oscar voters, not the film. I was likening it to GET OUT, LOST IN TRANSLATION, and PULP FICTION.

neutral · AI labelView post →Keep thinking about “Lost in Translation”, a fantastic film l a) really wish I could remember what I thought of it when I saw it as a teenager and b) I wish I’d watched again in my early 20s, just to track my own feelings about it.
positive · AI labelView post →currently watching Lost In Translation and like wow this movie must hit so hard if you dont know anything about japan and have a vague fondness for orientalism

neutral · AI labelView post →This is why I LOATHE the film LOST IN TRANSLATION. The epitome of "white woman ennui" "I went to this temple and all these monks were chanting and I didn't feel anything" WTF should you? You're not Buddhist. You don't even know what they were chanting! Find meaning in a language you understand!

positive · AI labelView post →The movie LOST IN TRANSLATION features Bill Murray playing a movie star who goes to Japan to shoot commercials, because movie stars used to go to other countries to hide that they did this.
neutral · AI labelView post →It feels very goofy to say that I had a week-long, movie-like experience while on a work trip but the past week has felt like my own version of Lost in Translation, Crazy Rich Asians, and X-Men where a mutant who thought they were a freak learns they're actually qualified to work with Professor X.
neutral · AI labelView post →Lost in Translation is a brilliant movie because, speaking as someone who was sexually assaulted at 19, it's a wish fulfillment movie for people that have been taken advantage of. Bill Murray is clearly tempted to do the wrong thing but chooses to just be a friend instead, that's a lovely fantasy
positive · AI labelView post →There it is, THE SECRET LIVES OF DENTISTS in HD on Netflix. Easily the best film Alan Rudolph made after his ’80s heyday. Placed 7th in the 2003 Skandies, just above LOST IN TRANSLATION. Arguably career-best work from Campbell Scott, Hope Davis, Denis Leary. Was long unavailable. Not to be missed.
neutral · AI labelView post →LOST IN TRANSLATION (Sofia Coppola, 2003) Another formative film. You're 12 years old. Everyone tells you to watch Tarantino. The new hotness is Nolan & Aronofsky. You don't realize how little space was made for femininity until you watch her movies and fall in love with cinema in a new way.
positive · AI labelView post →this morning I was biking to the train station and I remembered that in Lost in Translation the big sign that the Movie Star woman is a dipshit is that her hotel reservations are under the name George Sand but she doesn't know that George Sand was a woman
neutral · AI labelView post →the premise of Lost In Translation is very dated now because no movie star is embarrassed enough about doing corny commercials to only do them overseas
neutral · AI labelView post →i think when youre doing an allegedly contemplative movie that is literally named Lost In Translation and its about a culture clash its absolutely essential that you dont direct the foreign culture individuals to make a stereotype of themselves
negative · AI labelView post →Scene studies from Lost In Translation. I wouldn’t say that I had an all out favourite film, but this would likely make the list. Despite only watching it a year or so ago, I’ve been besotted with it ever since. I often feel like there’s a chunk of me missing. A hollow, kind of sadness. Somehow
positive · AI labelView post →#NW Lost in Translation (2003). I love the tone of this movie. The unsaid love between two people and exploring that unfold and grow into something beautiful but also sadly unattainable. 3.5/5 ⭐ #filmsky #moviesky #cinemasky #movie
positive · AI labelView post →-sees critical consensus that MEGALOPOLIS is a likely career-ender film for all involved -reminded that Coppola hasn't made anything worthwhile in 30 years -sees people defending LOST IN TRANSLATION and MARIE ANTOINETTE -reminded that most film bro types don't actually watch films

positive · AI labelView post →Lost in Translation I know the film is meant to be a metaphor, but as someone who has been to Japan and can speak Japanese, seeing both characters not even be able to say arigatou or onegaishimasu after THREE MONTHS in Japan is despicable. They abuse everyone and they're both horrifically selfish.
negative · AI labelView post →What’s a song that was not written for a movie but was used in a movie scene in a way where you always associate it with that movie/movie scene? "More Than This" by Bill Murray ("Lost in Translation", 2003; original by Roxy Music, 1982)
