Lost in Translation

Dir. Sofia Coppola · United Kingdom, United States of America · English, Japanese

Everyone wants to be found.

What happens

Two lost souls visiting Tokyo -- the young, neglected wife of a photographer and a washed-up movie star shooting a TV commercial -- find an odd solace and pensive freedom to be real in each other's company, away from their lives in America.

What the critics said

Notable Critics

"In Japan, the most extreme delicacy goes hand in hand with garishness, and Coppola offers up both for our delectation. It's a heady, hallucinatory combo."

— Peter Rainer

"Very much a mood piece, the film's deft balance of humor and poignancy makes it both a pleasurable and melancholy experience."

— David Rooney
