Review of Lost in Translation (2003) by Aleksandar B — 26 Sep 2017
The film is not crazy complicated, actually it's very simple and very convincing in portraying loneliness. It is a sequence of beautiful shots, comedic scenes that make you chuckle, and scenes of hoplesness that don't really sadden you, but make you question yourself.
This protagonist duo is indeed not a conventional one, just like these people are not in real life, but it works, they work, maybe it's because of the circumstances, maybe not. The film is constantly trying to portray loneliness and does it in quite a realistic way, but that's where it falls short as a film, it becomes a bit dull.
Nevertheless, the film does what it is supposed to do. Tokyo looked beautiful too.
