Lost in Translation (2003)
Cannot understand what the fuss is about
Watched the DVD. I didn't care for this movie. Then (as usual) I began to doubt my own sanity since "the whole world loves this movie". I came to IMDB 'User's Comments" and was very comforted to see that others felt as I do. I cannot fathom why Bill Murray and Scarlett Johanson got mentioned in Best Actor categories. As someone else pointed out, he acts just like Bill Murray. The first thing I noticed about Scarlett was her puffy lips, then later I noticed that she seems to be trying to look like Uma Thurman. But best actor? And the story ... I guess I feel very let down, and have a strong sense that the story could have been much better.
The Burial Society (2002)
I enjoyed this film
I saw this film at the London showing of the Moving Pictures Film Festival. I like it overall, but the ending was problematic. The film boasts high production values, and the actors were uniformly very good. I did not know most of them. The story had the feel of a Coen brothers production.
