Lost in Translation

Sometimes you see a movie where you think "Wow, they really got it right". The other night I saw "Lost in translation" which is about Westerners feeling trapped and isoloted in the chaos of Tokyo. For anybody who has ever spent time in Asia then you know exactly what these characters are going through and for those of you who have not experienced Asian culture then it gives you a glimpse at how completely isolated one can feel in the worlds most populated area. The movie is hilarious as it it completely hits the nail on the head at how difficult it sometimes is to communicate and adjust to foreign surroundings.
