I’ve watched Lost  in Translation at least 100 times over the last 15 years. It is my go-to meditation, my peaceful reminder of the simplicity of joy,  even if  nothing around you makes sense. No other film brings that feeling to the table. None. Scarlett and Bill are perfect examples of the ambiguity of connections, and the setting, a perfect nod to the lack of straightforward meaning in all things. Epic.

Here's the place you come to when you've finished watching Lost in Translation, trying to cope with that feeling of emptiness that just an awesome movie can leave you with.
Thanks for posting!

Sofia recaptures moments of joy and sadness in life that no other director seems to care about or have time for.

ちゃんと聞き取れるｗ

This is vlogging 2003 style. I fucking love it.

One of the greatest film ever made. I just keep coming back every so often.

I just realized that Bill Murray was literally just being himself in the film, which adds even more of my enjoyment to it haha.

Stunned by the amount of work in a “alternative” movie. So gigantic project, so many people and stuff

Watching Lost In Translation is like putting on a great album... obviously it helps that the soundtrack is pretty much the best of all time.

I spent 5 years in Japan... And even when i go on holiday i feel different... Alone... Sometimes fun and sometimes bored... Disconnected... So many people around but empty and full in same time... Summer makes you feel full and wanna be alone... Winter makes you feel sad, alone and wanna meet people...

I often watch this movie to remember this feeling...the feeling that I'm alive... Weak and nothing on this earth...

Tokyo makes you feel like that.

About ten minutes into your video and I realise that there's no way you could have shot this now or even ten years ago. Heck, I could barely shoot B-roll in Shinjuku and Shibuya in 2006 with a video camera that had a matte box, French flag and side wings without getting a small crowd building. If I tried to set up a tripod to do really long focus pulls and tracking shots, there would be a cop coming along pretty soon to ask what I was doing even if I was tucked well out of the way. And you know getting a permit for filming was near impossible so you just quietly did it and moved on ASAP. Lost In Translation was a movie that hit hard for me. I swear I still feel parts of that movie as if it was part of my own life having visited Japan so many times and lived in Tokyo. Great film!

I lived something much like this story a year or so earlier staying at the Hyatt Regency. This movie captures the vibe so incredibly well. She was from Taipei. We were never meant to spend our lives together. And I'll always miss her.

Fall, 2004 or so. 9am in the morning. I was alone at the press screening in one of the most impressive cinemas in Vienna, the Gartenbaukino, and this movie had a huge impact on me. Thanks Everybody involved.

Hard to believe this great film is almost 20 years old!

2:45 "That could be the poster"

It was!

Spike just disappears through this haha😂

Sofia seems so shy n lovely

This material is gold.

I just saw a interview with Scarlett were she said she felt isolated from the rest of the crew.  You can see it in this documentary.  It may have been an accident or it may have been a way to get Scarlett to better portray loneliness and depression.
