Lost in translation,review
I saw the movie called Lost in translation.The story is about Bob is a American actor.He need to work for the whisky advertisement in Tokyo .A girl call Charlotte ,who is a wife of a photographer.She come to Tokyo because of his husband.Bob and Charlotte they are the person do not have any thing can relate to them.They are stranger,but just put they in the this situation that living in Tokyo,they meet each other,become friends.They came from same country,speak same language ,stay in Tokyo which is totally different culture and language.They start lost themself in this country.The story start from this,and then they find each other,become friend they try to leave lonely and get fun in Tokyo by relying on each other.During the time when I saw the movie,I was thinking they love each other or just bore so they need each other.At the end I realize that they are just friend,need someone to stay and play .They are friend.

Lost in translation,relationship
There are a few scene make me fell that they are just friend.First of all is Chalotte ,Bob with the friends of charlie,they went to karaoke,then chalotte was smoking out side,Bob stay with him they did not say anything.she just put her head on hi,s shoulder,I fell it is more like friend relationship for them,like a friend want to get comfort from other friend.After that they took taxi back to the Hotel.Then Bob leave her room,he called his wife.It means Bob care his wife much more than Chalotte.Second is one night Chalotte is invited to Bob' room .They watched TV first,then they lay on the same bed,they just talk to each other,the topic they talk all is about their wife or husband.OBVIOUSLY,they care about their family,they just need friend to talk.





At one scene, Chalotte go to the temple,she see couple marry there,in my opinion,Chalotte look at them,she can remember that time she married with her husband.They had good time,she still chose her husband.



At once,Chalotte find that a woman sleep with Bob,Chalotte feel angry,but Bob fell that Chalotte do not understand him.But they forgive each other when Bob will leave japan.From this,I can fell that they just can be like friends,because they do not really know each other.

Lost in translation,not adapt live in Japan
Then I would like to talk how the director express Bob and Chalotte can not adapt the life in Tokyo. First is when Bob was making the whisky advertisement , the director for the advertisem
ent can not understand Bob,even though they have the translator there,but Bob can not understand what the direct want to express.Sofia Coppola use the contrast between director's exciting way of talking and the ignorance face of Bob.That contrast make audience fell Bob really lost in this country.For Chalotte,her husband always outside,she is so lonely,especially Sofia Coppola made the scene about Chalotte went to temple,the monks were chanting , but she do not fell anything.From this scene ,we can see Sofia Coppola explain the lonely mood of Chalotte quite well.

Lost in translation,start adapt live in japan
When the time goes,Bob start to adapt into Japanese style,he try to enjoy the entertainment in japan.He went to the club with clarile ,he talk with a Japanese . Eventhough they speak different language when they are talking,but they still can talk for long time,they can still have good time.The other time is Bob went to hospital ,he wait Chalotte outside,at that time,he talked with a japanese old woman.Again they speak complete different language,they talk different topic,but they still can continue talk and have fun.Bob's attitude become positive,because he can not understand what Japanese people say,but he still want to talk,he still can make friends with them he know communication is not only by language.Even though he can not talk Japanese ,however he do not give up live in Japan,he keep going,then he adapt the environment ,such as he can order food in restaurant,he also can go to hospital with Chalotte.At first he just stay at room or go the bar in hotel,after a while he met Chalotte ,he start change his mind and become positive attitude,he try to enter into japan's life.I think most of the reason is Chalotte appear ,they become friend,she go outside with him,let him meet some friend.The other reason of the changing of Bob is that he start know lanuguage is no not only way to live,eventhough language is different, the attitude is most important thing .

Lost in translation,the relationship betwen Bob and his wife
For that scene I want to analysising the relationship with Bob and his wife.His wife asked him which burgundy he like for his study room?However he even do not know which one is burgundy.From this scene I can see their relationship have problem.maybe his wife think they are fine , but for Bob who think they do not have enough talking and his wife just spend a lot of time on children.Bob try to figure out their problem.,even though Bob do not know about burgundy,but he still tell his wife he like burgundy,the only reason for that is his wife like burgundy,he just want to make his wife happy.But his wife still do not know what Bob think finally.Sofia Coppola make this scene here is to make a contrast.Bob can not understand Japanese ,but he still can have good time in Japan ,he can go to club and talk with local friends.In contrast,he can talk with his wife speak in the same language,but they still have many problem.Sofia Coppola want to tell us that language cannot be the problem between two people's relationship.As I said,attitude is more important than that.

Lost in translation,Chalotte
Let's talk about Chalotte,at the beginning ,she is so lonely ,always stay at home smoking..Sofia Coppola took many shot of that Chalotte sit near the window.From the window it can see the japan's view.Chalotte just look at the view,she are afraid of go into the Japanese life. From the window,we can see the cars are moving,the colorful life is outside,but Chalotte just sit there,it can see all the colorful and cars outside are different from Chalotte's life.She just look at yhe change of Japan day and day.She do not want to change herself into it.


Lost in translation,Bob is leaveing
For this shot in the movie,Bob will leave japan soon,when he was in the car,he saw Chalotte on the street by herslef,I fell that the people around her is walking,but she looks different from i=other people,she is not belong to here.When Bob saw this,he feel Chalotte lost in the street,she lost in the city again,because of his leaving.So he get out of the car,give her a hug.They do not say many word,all emotion of them is quit,they do not need to express by word.After that Bob went back to the car with smiling because he do not have any regret.Chalotte go into the crowd street again,it means she still need to face all thing,she still need to live in Japan.

Lost in translation,contrast scene
At the begining of the movie, Sofia Coppola took shot about the street view in japan at the same time Bob's face looks strange to all this view and building.At the end of the movie,Sofia Coppola also take a shot when Bob leave Japan,Sofia Coppola also take the shot of the street view in Japan.But this time the camera go from the side of street to the font of the road. It means Bob recall the japan's memery,then he need to look forward in his life.Japan just part of his life station .
