(Sofia Coppola, 2003)

101 Films You Need to See Before Graduation

Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson stand in front of a tiger striped wall.

Two strangers find unexpected connection in the neon glow of Tokyo in this modern classic from Sofia Coppola.

When a weary actor (Bill Murray) and a disillusioned young woman (Scarlett Johansson) cross paths far from home, their shared sense of isolation transforms into something tender, humorous, and indescribable. With Sofia Coppola’s dreamy direction and striking visuals, Lost in Translation captures the magic of being understood, if only just for a moment. Winner of an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. (103 mins., DCP)
