From Corey Holms – Lost in Translation:
This movie captivated me to no end. Not for a minute do I think I’ll forget the experience I had the first time I saw it in the theatre.

Ah, yes, thank you! Another person who is absolutely fascinated by this movie.
I cannot even tell what it is, I couldn’t say why I like it that much, what makes it so special. I don’t know. I don’t understand, why it takes such a grip of me every time, damn! But I even cry tears when I watch it — and I’m a guy, for fuck’s sake! Because it is THAT good. Sofia Coppola has done a GREAT job with this one. Probably her best ever.
Would it work with other actors? No! Absolutely not. These two, Johansson and Murray, make a perfect match here. It’s great casting! In fact, Coppola said she wanted Murray for it and wouldn’t have shot it if he had said ‘No’.
And, ah, yes, since I’ve seen Lost in Translation I’m forever in love with Scarlett Johansson. Bummer. Bummer, because I fear she’ll never ever be that good in a movie so perfect. Alas, she’s young, so there’s hope.
