Lost in Japan / Translation

MFYE Season 1 Episode 6

Shawn Mendes plays Bill Murray in “Lost in Japan,” a shot-for-shot remake of “Lost in Translation” by Sofia Coppola. But somehow the somber and quiet film is turned into a flirty, cutesy rom-com with Shawn’s boyish good looks. Kevin and Jose discuss how visuals dictate tone and what is the difference between homage and theft? We debate “Fancy” by Iggy Azalea featuring Charli XCX and “Countdown” by Beyoncé.
