Ethan and Talia discuss Sofia Coppola’s 2003 Lost in Translation. How in our history of rewatching this film our empathy has changed from Scarlett Johansson to Bill Murray; how the use of the Jesus and Mary Chain, My Bloody Valentine and Air on the soundtrack elevated this to something above great; and seeing glimpses of the real awe-struck relationship between the young Scarlett Johansson and Bill Murray.
