TFA blurb review

edit

Lost in Translation is a 2003 romantic comedy-drama film written and directed by Sofia Coppola. It stars Bill Murray as Bob Harris, a fading American movie star who is having a midlife crisis when he travels to Tokyo to promote Suntory whisky. There, he befriends Charlotte, a recent college graduate played by Scarlett Johansson. Coppola started writing the film after spending time in Tokyo and becoming fond of the city. During filming she kept a flexible schedule with a small crew and minimal equipment; the screenplay was short and Coppola often allowed improvisation. The film premiered on August 29, 2003, at the Telluride Film Festival and was a critical and commercial success. Critics praised the performances of Murray and Johansson, as well as the writing and direction of Coppola, who won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. The film won three Golden Globe Awards and three British Academy Film Awards. (Full article...)
