Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind

quote:
After years of a rocky relationship, Joel (Carrey) discovers that his long-time girlfriend, Clementine (Winslet), has undergone an experimental procedure in which all of her memories of Joel are removed. When Joel realizes what she's done, he's frustrated by being in love with a woman who doesn't remember him or the time they spent together, so he goes to the psychiatrist (Wilkinson) to have the same procedure. The procedure erases each memory at a time, with the most recent ones going first, and as this is happening, Joel realizes he doesn't really want to forget Clementine. He begins to hide her into parts of his memory where she doesn't belong, and in the process, alters his other memories.

Carlos and I went to watch this movie on thursday and all i have to say is this movie is amazing... Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet are outstanding. This has got to be one of my fav. movies of all time.

Has anyone else watched this movie???

lol thanks alot for giving the ending away!!! Now i know it has a typical "happy" ending.

Anyway, my co-worker saw this movie a couple days ago, and she said it was really good. She said Jim Carrey did a great job as a serious actor. Kate Winslet is also a great actress.

I wouldn't mind watching this.

I really wanted to see this,
is it similar to vanilla sky though?
the trailers remind me of it...

Posted by mot10n on Apr-25-2004 04:00:

it's written by Charlie Kaufman who also wrote Adaptation, Being John Malkovich...

so you know it's a messed up movie!!! i wanna see this too. adaptation was amazing, i reccommend that one.

I liked it, and I definitely recommend. It gives off the feeling of Vanilla Sky to me.

I rented Thirteen last night. Yikes, that shit scares me. I don't ever remember being anywhere close to that kind of life when I was that age.

I went in with high expectations because of Kaufman, but the subject matter seemed SO boring...it was excellent...so much better than I had expected.

Posted by Carney on Apr-26-2004 21:51:

yea it actually kind of reminded me of vinilla sky too
