lost in translation (the late show)

well not the late show really. the early one.

went to the preview just now. missed the first half hour cos i had to file the bloody story. was hoping it wouldn't be for tomoro's paper but no... since zaobao was there, had to file it. so ya'll can read it tomoro, if u get yr hands on a copy that is.

(a quick aside here: when pp find out that i work for the paper, they always say they can't get a copy, whether it used to be delivered to their homes or dunno where to find it etc.... always the same story)

anyway back to the movie. missed the first bit, which my colleague later filled me in with, something about a Japanese prostitute who said 'lip my stocking' and bill murray went: 'lick your stocking?'' . she actually was saying Rip my stocking... in japglish.

anyway i liked the movie, the way it was shot but i left wondering, now what exactly went on there? i mean, it was like a movie about nothing really... but i liked that it wasn't the typical hollywood movie and ending. it reminded me a little of Before Sunrise...
