Well, what is there to say about "Lost in Translation"?
If you've seen the movie you'll know why I chose to make a video about it - and if you haven't watched the movie yet you should definitely give it a try. :o)
"Lost in Translation" is one of the very few movies that I remember watching more than once at the theater (instead of waiting for the DVD release).
The underlying sad truths and the uplifting note (yep, both there at the same time) lingered with me for quite a while, and even made me think about a couple of things (or lack thereof) in my own life.
"I just don't know what I'm supposed to be."
"You'll figure that out. The more you know who you are, and what you want, the less you let things upset you."
:o)
I had a hard time finding a song to go with all the scenes I wanted to include (way too many by the way, but I hope I still managed to combine my favorites without making an unstructured mess), but eventually settled for Electric President's "Insomnia".
Apart from the fitting title, it matches the mood of the movie very well, being both tragic as well as hopeful...
And speaking of hope, I hope you enjoy watching this. :o)
