Eternal Sunshine Of the Spotless Mind

Woah! I just saw the above mentioned movie last night and let me tell you, it was one of the most weird, but beautiful movies I have ever seen. It was one of those ones where you feel confused, but it was just so lovely and the filmmaking was amazing! I couldn't believe how much work had been put into this film. The movie is based on a procedure that erases the memories of a certain individual from your mind, so you can move on with your life. The story is based around Joel, played by Jim Carrey, who did an outstanding job. He stepped out of his usual eccentric role and did a beautiful job as a man who doesn't know what to do with his life. Joel falls in love with Clementine (played by Kate Winslet), and their characters clash. They are in love, but they are so different. Clementine eventually erases Joel's memory from her mind and when he finds out, he decided to fight back and have his own memories of Clementine erased. That's when the movie gets interesting, because we are sucked into the world of Joel's mind, following him around his subconscious. Most of the movie is set inside his head, as he decides against the procedure but is stuck inside his mind, unable to escape and call it off. He is forced to live through the memories once more. The ending is extremely dramatic and well-done and thought-provoking. A must-see for romantic buffs, but also for people who just enjoy beautiful films. It was one of those movies for me that I call "Oh-my-goodness-that-movie-was-so-thought-provoking-I-have-to-write-in-my-journal-now" movies. Go see it.

Bye for now
