We recently asked you, our audience, to vote for the films you’d most like to see on the big screen when GFT re-opened. Lost in Translation came out on top.
Winner of an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay and three Golden Globes including Best Actor for Bill Murray, Sofia Coppola's poignant drama about Americans abroad stars Murray as faded actor Bob Harris. He is in Tokyo to film an inane whisky advert, when he meets Charlotte (Scarlett Johansson), a lonely wife drifting apart from her photographer husband.
These two lost souls find an unexpected and meaningful connection over a few days together. Coppola’s dreamlike mood, combined with Murray’s deadpan humour and the unique chemistry between the actors, make Lost in Translation a modern classic.
