Just saw Lost in Translation Ahh! Do yourself a favor and see it. Brilliant, brilliant movie! I just find it really hard to articulate why...

(I confess being thrilled slightly to pieces seeing Scarlet Johnasens hair looking all together normal at various points)

It's a step and a half up from Broken Flowers (pretty sure Bill Murray was in that one too).

I think I also like straying from the cliche's...

Perhaps it's all just a reflection on the postmodern in me?
