Before Scarlett Johannsson became a pouty A-lister peddling perfume she was the perfect wide-eyed ingénue, stuck in Tokyo with no one to talk to except Bill Murray in this classic, deadpan Sofia Coppola comedy.

"Very much a mood piece, the film's deft balance of humor and poignancy makes it both a pleasurable and melancholy experience."
—
Variety
Variety"An engaging examination of angst and desire, hampered by a reliance on racial stereotypes. Walks a line between vacuous and profound."
—
Total Film
Total Film"Cinematic cherry blossom."
—
