Lost in Translation

ComedyDramaRomance102 min

An aging movie star in Tokyo to shoot a whiskey commercial crosses paths with a young American adrift while her photographer husband chases work. Bill Murray is Bob Harris, jet-lagged and stalled out in a luxury hotel; Scarlett Johansson's Charlotte is newly married, restless, and unsure what to do with herself in a city she barely knows. Between late-night bars, whispered conversations, karaoke, and the blur of Tokyo streets, the two carve out a private connection that sits somewhere between friendship, flirtation, and a temporary escape from the lives waiting for them back home.
