Lost in Translation (2003)


A romance by Sofia Coppola, starring Bill Muray and Scarlett Johansson.
A celebrity and an unsatisfied bride are bored in a Japanese hotel. They meet and become friends, developing an almost romantic relationship.
I normally don't go for romance, but this was a little different. I like Bill Murray as an actor and there was a little comedy involved. So, the plot and characters were alright. I think I liked the style best of all. The film did a good job of portraying a chance encounter of bored strangers developing an unexpected relationship. I was really surprised that there wasn't even an implied sex scene, but I think that made it classier. I'm rating this adequate.
