    What do you think Charlotte whispered to Bob at the end of the movie? (The part when Bob was on the way to the airport and he sees Charlotte and gets out of the car)

    It was a great movie. Just curious about what others thought :D

    hmm i forgot that scene, but i think it cost me a good deal of night's sleep not knowing what charlotte said.


    i like the carpet color sample scene in the story. you know your marriage is in trouble when your wife sends you carpet swatches :)

    She said, "I'm gonna be a bigger star than you in a couple of years". :D

    Just Kidding...

    Sofia Coppola says she'd never tell. Too bad.

    I could not get into that movie. I got to the point where he was in the club watching a naked girl dance. It was painful even to get there. Guess I wasn't in the mood or something, I heard it's supposed to be really good...

    She probably didn't have a script for that scene :D

    This was one of the best movies I've watched in recent years. I guess I'm in love with Japan :)

    I thought i would enjoy the movie as an expat living in china however i didn't get into it at all. I think its one of the worst movies I've seen..

    I think I fell asleep by the point where she whispers something to him..

    Good movie, it was a bit depressive to me at first watching. Haven't watched it for the second time :).

    I liked the movie lot.

    It's just proof that you don't need car chases, explosions or a couple trying to be together against all odds to make something interesting.

    I must say that I don't remember that particular scene, though.

    I have seen that movie long ago. I can't recall the exact words but I do remember the scene.
    I also agree that the movie is a nice one.

    I was living in Asia when I saw it...and thought it was great. I really didnt enjoy being there...and I thought that showed the continual culture shock. Being illiterate sucks.

    I suppose some people went into this movie with the idea that Bill Murry was going to be in his typical gag-a-minute game show host style, but he wasn't.

    I knew this, and because I was aware of this being an ostensibly serious film, I was looking forward to seeing him hold down a serious role.

    I found the film to be really enjoyable, seeing how westerners really stand out and feel awkward in such a culturally different country, albeit one that looks for all the world like any modern, westernised city.

    Like I said, it's all about what you want from a film.

    I call this the Brother In-Law Factor, since one of my brother's in-law can't watch a film if: a) someone hasn't been shot to death, b) something or someone hasn't been blown up, or c) a mad ubervillain hasn't committed to overthrowing the fee world, or d) a combination of the previous points.

    All of which must take place within the first 15 minutes or he walks out of the film, allegedly...

    Hmm... I don't recall that scene. It's been a while since I watched it though. A good film. :)

    thought it was good, really kind of captured empty loneliness feeling of the characters
