I love Lost in Translation and Bill Murray's performance....what else would I like?
LiT is growing on me even more, and I've seen it 4 times now.
What other movies would I like? More importantly, what other Bill Murray performances would I like? I know I gotta catch Rushmore and such, but at least I've seen Royal Tenenbaums. I'm just looking for more of that dry Bill Murray humor. |
Groundhog Day!

While there's obviously no Bill Murray in them, some of Wong Kar-Wai's movies have largely the same feel as LiT; namely people being "lost" in big cities. WKW's pretty much universally have great music, really inventive cinematography, and quirky characters.
I'd recommend: Chungking Express Fallen Angels In The Mood For Love <- less quirky then the 2 above, but still like LiT Oh yea, and for dry humor they don't come much dryer then Jim Jarmusch's movies: Stranger Than Paradise Dead Man Down By Law |
Although more comical, I really like his performance in "What About Bob?". I just saw it for the first time this month since it's been on HBO On Demand.
The aforementioned Groundhog Day is also great. |
neither of these have Bill Murray, but recently released on DVD are "American Splendor" and "The Secret Lives of Dentists"
both are funny, well-acted and written. Dentists has a hilarious turn otherworldly turn by Denis Leary plus Campbell Scott and Hope Davis. Paul Giamatti and Hope Davis star in Splendor. those are just low budget type of indie-ish comedies. |
You've never seen Ghostbusters? Caddyshack? Groundhog's Day? Ed Wood? Charlie's Angels? Scrooged? Little Shop of Horrors? :eek:
