Coppola, whose script for “Lost in Translation” won the Oscar for original screenplay, partly used the dissolution of her marriage to fellow directoras inspiration for the film, which follows a college graduate who accompanies her celebrity photographer boyfriend on a trip to Tokyo. While he’s out flirting with a Hollywood actress , she befriends a faded movie star who’s in town to shoot a commercial.
“He apologized to me about that,” Coppola said about Gondry. “He scolded me at my premiere, but he apologized. I think he was being a good friend. He thought he was defending Spike, but he was putting me down at my premiere. It came out of him trying to be a good friend to Spike.”Jonze’s directorial effort “Her” released in theaters 10 years after “Lost in Translation,” and many moviegoers took it as a response to Coppola’s film in that it represents his perspective on the end of a marriage.
Coppola was also asked about Anna Farris’ “Lost in Translation” character, which some have theorized is based on Jonze’s “Being John Malkovich” star Cameron Diaz. That film opened in 1999, the same year Jonze and Coppola got married.
