Avis sur le produitLost in Translation (VHS, 2004)

Excellent Movie...

starring Scarlett Johansson and Bill Murray in his greatest performance as two Americans in Tokyo who are unhappy with their marriages and the situation they find themselves in, and find solice in one anothers company. Murray is a washed-up TV star in town for a TV whiskey commercial shoot. We see amusing scenes of Murray's confusion with the Japanese director and most other natives he comes across along the way. He makes us laugh, but his performance is so subtle, it's amazing how he holds back and let's just enough of his "Bill Murray" persona to seep out. There is even a Karoke scene where Bill revives his old "Nick the Lougesinger" persona, albeit only briefly before he is again reminded of his own pain and the joy leaves his voice as he sings "More Than This" by Roxy Music to Johansson. It's a really great performance, I can't say enough about it. Johannson also delivers the goods as the wife of a photagrapher on assignment in Japan, who leaves his wife alone in the apartment to contemplate what she is missing in her life. By chance Murray and Johannson spark up a conversation at a bar, and identify with each others misery. They become fast friends and we watch as they experience Japan and grow closer as the movie progresses. There is little action in the movie, it is more of a character study. Almost like "Last Tango is Paris" but without the sex. Sofia Coppola, daughter of Francis Ford Coppola, directed this fine film and I recommend it to those of you who don't mind a movie that moves along slowly, dealing more with emotion than eventsLire l'avis complet...
