Newcomer Scarlett Johansson makes a splash in Sophia Coppola's subtle and sensitive sophomore film.

Coppola's impressive debut film "The Virgin Suicides" is already an instant classic.

Here, Bill Murray plays Bob Harris, an aging American actor making high paying whiskey commercials for a few days in Tokyo.

The boredom is grueling.

Charlotte (Scarlett Johansson) is visiting Tokyo with her workaholic photographer husband John (Giovanni Ribisi).

Charlotte catches Bob in midlife crisis, but can't resist his company.

Their orbit is strong.

"Lost In Translation" is a deceptively simple study in attraction that succeeds in spite of minor problems with neglected sub-plots.

Rated R. 102 mins.
