Lost in translation

It would have been a good title for my upcoming post about my trip to Istanbul, but I guess I will have to find another one.

It's just that I found out today on Youtube what it is that Bill Murray whispers in Scarlett Johansson's ear (remember that time when she was not excruciatingly annoying ?) in the last scene of the film.


It is like hearing a secret, something you have died to know for ages. And then someone lets it slip and the magic is gone.

Suddenly it's like it doesn't belong to you anymore.

That's the secret about secrets, they'd better stay untold.
