i finally got to see lost in translation last nite…yay! marisol and paulie were gonna go see it…and i wasnt sure whether i could go with them b/c i had to work on some freelance work. after determining that id jus suck it up and stay up however late i had to to finish the work, i trotted off to catch the 10pm showing with them in times square. i haveta say…im in love with japan all over again. nicely paced, subtle dialogue, and gorgeous shots of japan. must…buy…plane tickets. the only gripe i had with the movie was the tart sitting 2 seats down from me. every time there was a new scene, i could hear him telling his girlfriend stuff like “see that temple…thats the heian shrine. when i was in kyoto….” or “thats harajuku…when i was there…” dude…we get it. you’ve been to japan…congratu-fucking-lations. you kno those kind of ppl. argh. otherwise still a lovely movie.
