Lost in Translation

A fabulous movie. Simple, subtle and does quite pull your heartstrings, even though its doesnt necessarily fall into the romantic comedy genre. Wont bother talking more bout it. I am sure there are way too many movie buffs and VCD/DVD libraries in town.

The movie does leave one a little bit ruffled though...more often we try to translate all that happens around us, try to figure out the whys and wherefores of a chance meeting or the hidden meaning in some movie, or a total stranger saying something that hits the nail right on the head. It kinda re-affirms your faith in the possibilities of life showing up at a time (and place) when you least expect it. Out of the blue. Like no matter how hard you try to fight, you are aware of the futility, but still keep trying. And if you took the path of least resistance there could be so many drastic consequences. And your best chance would be admit to them and see where things move on from there. Being open to the innumerable possibilities that could come to life.......
