Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind
I love the movie.
I think it's really poignant and that being delivered by Jim Carrey, the supposed funny guy, is mind blowing. Him and Kate Winslet were really amazing.
To give a brief glimpse of the story, a guy, Joel, and a girl, Clementine, met and fell in love. their relationship turned sour after the whirlwind start. So Clementine went to a doctor who can erase a certain part of the memory and had Joel removed from her memory. Joel, after finding out about this, went to the same doctor and had Clementine removed from his memory as well. During the process, in his mind Joel realized what made him fell in love with Clementine in the first place and wanted to save parts of his memory from the erasing process.
It's really sad to see Joel trying desperately to save memories of Clementine. A story of forgetting was turned into a story of remembering.
A really good movie.
How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd;
-Alexander Pope
