Can anyone help.....what did Bill Muray whisper to Scarlet at the end of the film "Lost in translation " ?

Great film by the way.

It's purposely left as a mystery -- the viewer isn't supposed to know, although everyone has his own theory.

In that case he could have said....." I bet the British 4 x 100 metres relay team beat the usa in the Olympics" ?

or ..." I only took this role because Jackson wouldnt let me be Aragorn "

I know we've already had a thread discussing it, but I felt that that ending was excellent. Possibly because it was the only ending acceptable to the viewer, but th kind which is rarely carried out.
I loved that film.

Yes, the movie was very good and to anyone who has been to Japan it had double meaning in many of the scenes. Well done.
