When a weary actor (Bill Murray) and a disillusioned young woman (Scarlett Johansson) cross paths far from home, their shared sense of isolation transforms into something tender, humorous, and indescribable. With Sofia Coppola’s dreamy direction and striking visuals, Lost in Translation captures the magic of being understood, if only just for a moment. Winner of an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. (103 mins., DCP)
