Hi,

I just watched the Lost in Translation DVD and I couldn't find any
function that translated or captioned the many scenes of Japanese
dialogue into English. Are there any hidden features that do this? If
not, does anyone know any websites or postings where I can find
complete translations every Japanese-language scene?

Thanks,

Sebastian Nelson

Nope. The whole point is to put is into the position of the
characters.

They don't understand it, we don't understand it.

www.areyouawake.org is a fansite for "Lost In Translation". It includes a
translation of what the director is attempting to tell Bill Murray's character
during the filming of the commercial segment.
