Lost in Translation Movie Synopsis
Bob Harris (Murray) and Charlotte (Johansson) are two Americans in Tokyo. Bob is a movie star in town to shoot a whiskey commercial, while Charlotte is a young woman tagging along with her workaholic photographer husband (Ribisi). Unable to sleep, Bob and Charlotte cross paths one night in the luxury hotel bar. This chance meeting soon becomes a surprising friendship. Charlotte and Bob venture through Tokyo, having often hilarious encounters with its citizens, and ultimately discover a new belief in life's possiblities.
Love this movie, found it very sweet and touching how these two characters found solace and company in one another. It also makes me want to go visit Tokyo!
As someone who does not know much about movie making I simply enjoyed this one. It is refreshing, light and yet touching, and really seems to have that feminine touch. Along with "The Life Aquatic" my favorite movie in years.
got to be one of my top 5 movies!!! Highly recommended!
