ロスト·イン·トランスレーション

Hi everyone
This time I wanna told you about movies I like, its really hard for me to choose just one film, I like all kind of movies (well, Im not a great fan of horror movies really)... animated movies are really great, specially Hayao Miyazaki films..love the stories, the characteres and feeling like Im a child again. Anyway, this time Im not going to talk about an animated film...I really cant choose my favourite, so Im going to talk about one of my non animated favourites: "Lost in Translation".
This is a Sofia Coppola film from 2003. This is the second movie written and directed by Sofia Coppola after "The virgin suicides" that I actually really like too.
The film is about two strangers who meet in Tokyo. He is an actor called Bob (Bill Murray) and Charlotte is a young wife (Scarlett Johansson). They was in the same hotel and one noght they meet at the bar, they become fast friends and explore Tokyo together. Bob and Charlotte share a similar dissatisfaction with their lives, they are alone in a strange city, so they get closer, its a short but very significant relationship, they are both lost in the japanese culture and meet each other.
What I like about this movie, and about Sofia Coppola style, is the "time" in the movie, seems to be slower, sometimes there is a distance between the story and the viewer, the characters not talk too much, but we know them through other ways. We could know the inner world of Bob and Charlotte through the hotel peaceful life and the crazy city, respectively...through the aesthetics. 
There is a lot of things I like about this movie..the plot, the cast, the music. I like how Coppola tell the story and the resources she used. If you like this director I totally recommend this one.

    Hello Nina!
    I didn' see this film but -like Alejandra says- look very interesting, primarily by movie title because if you live in a world where you can't translate the signs of their civilization that must be very difficult!
    Greetings!

A COUNTRY I'D LIKE TO VISIT

I'd really like to travel abroad, I have visited just some places in Chile, north and south, and I'd really like to know other countries, I can think of in a lot of countries I'd like to visit, but if I could choose I'd probably travel to south american countries first. I think one of my favorite countries would be Brazil, first of all because I think this country has incredible landscapes and places to visit such as the Amazon rainforest, Rio de Janeiro, beaches and islands...I can imagine myself on  a tropical beach , drinking some caipirinha and just relaxing. I have a friend who travelled to Brazil and decided to stay and live there, this friend told me that brazilian people are really cheerful and very friendly, they have a tropical climate, a great biodiversity, a lot of beautiful places to visit, and a great night life. If I traveled to Brazil I'd like to go to the beach and do ecotourism and adventure travel...but I'd also like to do some  historic ...

About a singer

Image
I like a lot of music, singers and bands. I really dont know what is my favourite, but now Im going to talk about Bjork, who is one of my favourites female musicians. This is an icelandic singer songwriter, her music can be defined as a mix of rock, pop, folk, electronic and even classical music. She's also an actress in the movie Dancing in the Dark , a musical movie that have very good songs. Her first solo album was called Debut and release in 1993, one single of this album that I like is Venus as a Boy.  What I like about Bjork is that she has a very particular style, very unique, I like her voice and her music videos. Here is a video, enjoy (:
