finally saw 'lost in translation.' it was brilliant. scarlett gives an excellent performance as does bill murray. this is one of those subtle films where you must read between the lines. there are several scenes where both characters are for the most part silent. and you infer meaning from their nonverbal communication. dialogue is secondary. the cinematography is beautiful too. it's really rapid and fast paced... mimics tokyo. alright so this is the second good film i have seen lately. wow. finally!
