I wasn't too affected by the previous seasons and haven't watched Season 3 yet (except episode 00 pre-netflix with Mr Mad Men), but if you're up for it and really want to feel emotionally exhausted after a motion picture, I can recommend Denis Villeneuve's Incendies (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1255953/). If Lost in Translation leaves you disillusioned, then Incendies will be a punch to the stomach you feel for another day. It's one of those rare movies you appreciate and regret watching at the same time. A longer running movie with similar themes (I mean mini series) is the UK production The Honourable Woman, but it doesn't leave you as emotionally affected, so I wouldn't recommend it as a must watch.

It seems that Haruki Murakami is the Leonardo DiCaprio of Nobel prizes.

He.. She.. It.. They? Didn't create the sphere though!

To anyone not getting the reference, read Pandora's Star by Peter Hamilton[1]. It's a lovely read.
