You are a movie star?
Yeah, yeah, I should be doing movie.
Bill Murray plays Bob Harris, a middle-aged American matinee idol in Tokyo to film a whiskey commercial.
For relaxing times, make it some toy time.
(Japaneses...)
Read intensity.
Is that everything? It seemed you said more than that.
As the film's title suggests,more than Bob 's work is Lost In Translation, besides the language barrier, he is suffering from the isomnia that afflicts many int'l travelers and Murray explains Bob is lonely.
He didn't have his world and it's just a shock of consciousness where, all of a sudden, you're stuck with yourself. That's what it is. When you go to a foreign country truly foreign, there is a major shock of consciousness that comes on you. Well you are just, you really see it. Oh, god, it's just me now. There are no neighbors, no friends, no phone calls,just room service.
<...>
Can you keep a secret? I'm trying to organize a prison break.I'm looking for a complice.We have to at first get out of this bar, then the hotel, then the city, and the country. Are you in the ()?
How many?
Lat at night or early in the morning,in the hotel bar, Bob meets the young American newlywed accompanying her husband on a business trip. Charlotte, played by Scarlett Johansson.
I don't think Charllote feels totally lost in Tokyo. She knows where she's going, but because she feels so vulnerable and confused and overwhelmed in her life, being in that environment just adds to the craziness.
Charlotte and Bob become friends helping each other cope. There is clearly an attraction between the two, but unlike so many screen relationships, this one does not lead to romance or intimacy. Johansson says that would have been wrong for these characters and this story.
You have this feeling that they would wake up, look at each other and go 'why did we do that? Everything is different,
Why did we ruin what we had? You know, it's just wasn't right.My character is in love with her husband and it just wasn't appropriate. It didn't feel right and it was never a question.
I think that would just become a whole other movie. So I wanted it to be about the kind of relationship that is on the verge of something but doesn't turn into that.
Writer/director Sofia Coppola says Lost In Translation was inspired by her own experiences on international trips, often with her father, Oscar-winning filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola.
It came from all my trips to Japan. I went to Tokyo (), and stayed in that hotel and had different experiences there. So it definitely came from my observations of being in Tokyo. And then what <...> definitely relate to. There are parts of me in both Bill Murray's character and Scarlett's character.
Like her critically acclaimed debut film The Virgin Suicides,Lost In Translation is a detailed character study; and Coppola says she wrote the Bob character specifically for Bill Murray. |
