Lost in Translation Filming Locations: Shibuya Scramble Intersection
<p>Some of the most iconic scenes of the film are the early shots of Charlotte (Scarlett Johansson) walking through the famed Shibuya Scramble intersection on a rainy day among a sea of pedestrians wielding clear plastic umbrellas. Charlotte weaves through the chaotic intersection and looks up at the landmark Q FRONT building (8 stories, completed in 1999) which at the time was one of the tallest buildings in Shibuya. The building’s front face is covered by a large digital display called ‘Q’s Eye’, measuring 19 meters wide by 24 meters high, which is the main focal point for pedestrians waiting to cross Shibuya’s scramble intersection and bathes the entire area in its neon glow.</p>
