I thought, "Yes, I remember this song from
this (Shallow Hal) movie.
NO NO. Web confirmed song was
remembered from this movie, Lost in Translation.
The song, Phoenix

| * Purchased ticket and got in
theatre late (Bob gets 'forgot Adam's birthday' fax) due to delay at Target.
Got up at "Premium Fantasy" scene to get snack, but got back to theatre well
into photo shoot scene. Decide to abandon this showing and saw "School of
Rock" for second time. (3) Guy and his girlfriend
yapping at various points in movie. People behind me also briefly talking a
various points during the movie and the closing credits music. Both
conversations were regarding the movie.
(2)
Lady in front row literally laughed like a hyena during the first third of
the movie.
(1) Guy on cell phone during the closing credits. He
mentioned to his girlfriend that Kevin Shields was responsible for the
music. He was interested in knowing who did the music but won't allow others
to enjoy the music over the closing credits.

| A
problem exist with the 'Lost in Translation'
time line. As seen in the final cut of the movie.
About day 2 -- Charlotte, in a call to Lauren,
questions her marriage to John. She said she tried Ikebana and that
she doesn't know who she married. After that call she puts on make up
and is wearing a nice sweater. John is seen packing his
camera.
About Day 3 -- Charlotte is
seen performing Ikebana and acts like it is her first time. (This
is after she told Lauren that she tried Ikebana).
About Day 4 -- John is seen
leaving on his trip to Fukazawa. He is holding his camera case, gives
champagne to Charlotte and kisses her goodbye.
(Both John and Charlotte are wearing the exact same clothes they wore two
days earlier and Charlotte is wearing her make-up the same as two days
earlier).
The correct sequence is for Charlotte to question her
marriage to John the day he leaves for Fukazawa. This makes the most sense.
She is left alone for a few days while he is out working. She sees him
interacting with Kelly and trying new hair products.

Cut -- Final cut or not, the timeline in Lost in Translation needs to
be corrected. This is a work in progress too. The detailed times (i.e. 9:14
a.m.) are all estimates. This is done to try and clear the time line and
sequence. Sequence of events will be clearer when clothes are matched up
from one scene to next. All day references, i.e. Day 2 and Day 3, are
relative to Bob's arrival in Tokyo which is considered Day 1.
Day 1 --
1:20 p.m. - Charlotte, perhaps jet lagged, is seen resting
on the bed in her panties. This is the opening shot of the movie, the title
shot.
Day 2 --
4:33 a.m. - Charlotte can't sleep. She tries to get John's
attention in bed. John ignores his beautiful 22 year old wife. Idiot.
7:28 a.m. - John leaves Charlotte in bed and rushes out to
work.
8:21 a.m. - Charlotte and Bob Harris make eye contact on the
elevator. First Contact.
11:00 a.m. - Charlotte walks around Shinjuku - perhaps the
Pachinko parlors.
Day 3 --
9:17 p.m. - John and Charlotte are in lounge. She sees Bob
in the N.Y. bar after his photo shoot. He is in a tuxedo with make up. He
looks very dashing. She sends over mints or something.
Day 4 --
12:37 a.m. -- Charlotte can't sleep and goes back to the
N.Y. bar. She talks with Bob Harris, who has also returned, for the first
time.
9:27 a.m. -- Charlotte and John meet Kelly. John tells
Kelly their here for a week and he's going to Fukazawa.
11:44 a.m. -- Charlotte sees Kelly's interview and tries
Ikebana.
Day 5 -- Charlotte gets on
subway goes to shrine |
