Argument :
Bob Harris is a former movie star instead of making films, lends image for television commercials.
This time, it has to star in a whiskey and heads to Tokyo (Japan) to roll.
Once there, you feel very lonely in the hotel as they do not know anyone and it is a culture totally opposed to American.
Everything changes when he meets a lonely young American who is staying in the same hotel as him.
is called Charlotte and is there because her husband is a famous photographer who has several sessions in Japan's capital and how it is not engaged in anything, has decided to accompany him.
Together, they will live quite special experiences that will lead to a very strong friendship and even confused with love.
Review: For starters I love the first frame of film :
Yes friends, is the fabulous Scarlett 's ass. Butt separate think "Lost in Translation" is certainly a good movie, a classic, but above all it is a different movie.
The film style, it is clear that Sofia Coppola printed in their films, slow situations, well cooked and especially addresses the issue of lonely women lost (as in "The Virgin Suicides "and" Marie Antoinette ") but in this case, the clear star of the story is a man.
The two protagonists are absolutely fabulous and get a chemistry that a priori, it would seem impossible for reasons of age ( Bill Murray was 52 years old when filmed and Scarlett Johansson 17).
I love the relationship established between them, so pure, confident, ... is as if we move to a world in which there are only two of them. They are surrounded by 36 million people (Tokyo is the world's most populous city, by the way) and seems to exist only for each other.
Also, Coppola we meant (in my opinion) a metaphor for showing us the protagonist sitting in the window intended to see that despite the number of people living in Tokyo, she is all alone.
The feeling I've felt over watching this movie is exactly that, the loneliness, when she sits in the window, when both U.S. call family members and virtually ignore them when protagonist is alone in the bar, etc.
My favorite scenes in the film are, when they sit in a room after singing in the karaoke, when he is waiting for her in the hospital waiting room and especially the end when he pursues the city, give a hug, tells her ear, kiss, he goes and sounds "Just like Honey" group The Jesus and Mary Chain .
best: is a very unusual love story and in fact, I do not know if it can be seen as a love story, is more, much more special.
I think very well in the end the film does not know the words that he says it, I do not need to listen and become open-ended.
Worst: not please those who believe that a movie is good, must have many special effects or extreme situations. This is just a movie rodades $ 4 million in less than a month. And would like a lot ...
