One fascinating film trivia I learned recently is that Sofia Coppola and Spike Jonze’s marriage from 1999 to 2003 partially inspired Coppola’s 2003 film Lost In Translation and Jonze’s 2013 film Her.
Coincidentally, both films star Scarlett Johansson as the main female protagonist, both films were nominated for the Oscar Best Picture, and both films won the Oscar Best Original Screenplay for Coppola and Jonze.
Wow, gainers vs decliners paints a pretty grim picture right now... https://www.nzx.com/markets/NZSX Relieved I don't have much exposure to the market. I gather the picture is even more bleak in the bigger markets.
