Sophia Coppola won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, so the movie is not based on a book. However Virgin Suicides was okay to me, but I had read the book before the movie came out and I had high expectations. The book by Jeffery Eugenides is really a work of art and I give her props for trying to fit it all into a two hour movie.
I've gotten mixed reviews around the board for Lost in Translation, my parents hated it but I guess I'll just have to judge for myself.
