Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind

I know the movie is old, but I just watched it...I thought it was friggin' brilliant.

The concept of being able to erase memories is quite fascinating when you think about it......

...and I wish Jim Carey can get some respect as a serious actor, he is quite good. It'ss too bad he has been stereotyped from the Ace Ventura movies....

Yes, I think I've seen that movie...the title certainly rings a bell. I seem to remember that I enjoyed it.

I've been dying to see it. I love bizarre, out of the ordinary movies like that. You're right about Jim, too. He doesn't get the credit he deserves. Damn funny guy though.

I couldn't agree more. Watching it was so refreshing because most of what Hollywood produces these days is nothing but more of the same! I thought this film deserved a lot more recognition than it got. Ah well, for those of you who haven't seen it, I full-heartedly recommend it!

Eternal Sunshine is a fantastic film on all fronts. I liked it so much I posted a thread about it a while back.

Eternal Sunshine was a really brilliant movie, made even more amazing by the presence of Kate Winslet, a truly amazing actress.

It was nice to see her play an unstable American. Made a refreshing change from all parts her as beautiful English maidens in period dramas...

........... mmmm i fuckin love this flim. this is my 2nd favortie movie of all time... only under Fight Club of course. if you watch the special features the director used no special effects he did it all w/ tricky camera business.... makes it much more amazing to watch after knowing that. and Charlie Kaufman is the best screen writer in hollywood. i wish he would team up w/ david fincher and make hollywood bow down to the greatness that would be too come.

Michel Gondry is known for his mastery of visual trickery. He's done some cool music videos, too: 'Star Guitar' and 'Let Forever Be' by The Chemical Brothers, 'Around the World' by Daft Punk and that White Stripes one with the lego. Very cool, very French, slightly mad.
