Unlikely friendships, wandering the streets of Tokyo, and growing emotional intimacy over bowls of noodles. On this episode we discuss the 2003 comedy-drama Lost in Translation, directed by Sofia Coppola and starring Scarlett Johansson and Bill Murray, and the 2007 comedy-drama Adrift in Tokyo (Tenten in the original Japanese), directed by Satoshi Miki and starring Joe Odagiri and Tomokazu Miura. We explore two very different sides of this fascinating city and ask the question: what can the rest of the world learn from Tokyo? Spoiler, a lot! Learn how Tokyo has tamed the car, invested in transit, avoided the affordabilty crisis, and made peace with the inevitable cycles of destruction and renewal.
