There are frequent questions for foreigners who visit in Japan such as
'Can you use chopsticks?' or 'Do you eat Natto?'.
And relatively one of the latest might be
'Have you ever watched Lost in Translation?'.
And interesting thing is that people who are familiar with Japan well
or live in this country for a long time didn't really like that movie.
(Including me)
I was asked by my friend why, I replied that
Sofia Coppola emphasized strange things of Japanese a little bit too much.
The Japanese hooker didn't have to be that old woman with such degrading English.
The director must have intended it to compare to the heroine who was young and a white beautiful girl.
By the way, I and my other friend went to the bar at Park Hyatto in Shinjyku to experience Lost In Translation in last January.
The hotel was splendid.
All these three picture were being taken by her camera.

There is no exception for liking for that movie??
I can't recall even when, where and with who I watched that film!
I remember watching this movie a long time ago, but more for trying to understand an older man going thru "midlife crisis".
I don't understand why Asian women have surgery to make their eyelids like Western women. You are beautiful just like you are. Big business for surgeons I guess taking advantage of people and their insecurities.
