Hull Independent Cinema: Audience Choice Screening – Lost In Translation

YOU CHOSE  AS THE AUDIENCE CHOICe:! Lost In Translation.

Bob, a lonely, ageing movie star, is filming an ad for a Japanese whiskey brand in Tokyo. Charlotte is a young, conflicted newlywed accompanying her photographer husband while he works on a new project. Strangers in a foreign land and with time to themselves, their paths cross in a hotel bar, and the two find escape, distraction and understanding in one another, forming an unlikely but meaningful bond.

Sofia Coppola’s writing and direction are a fine platform for the talents of Scarlett Johansson and Bill Murray as the lonesome leads. Winner of the Best Original Screenplay Oscar, three Baftas, three Golden Globes and awards and prizes around the world, including the Best Foreign Film César.

Starring Scarlett Johansson, Bill Murray, Giovanni Ribisi

Dir Sophia Coppola | 2003 | USA/Japan | 102 mins | 15 | English, Japanese, French and German with English subtitles

This season the Audience Choice Screening at Vue Cinema, Princes Quay, will be a celebration of female filmmakers.

As usual, Hull Independent Cinema gather your suggestions and combine them with ideas to create a shortlist of great films, with the final choice of which one we screen being down to an audience vote.

Keep an eye on our social media channels or email newsletter for details of how to get involved.

Once we know what the film will be, tickets will cost the usual rates, but before the film is chosen, you can buy tickets at the special ‘Mystery Movie’ price of just £4 – or only £1 if you’re a HIC member!
