"Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" Is A Movie You Have To See

"Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" is very confusing but it is an amazing film. It has Joel, played by Jim Carrey, living his life alone and wanting more out of life. He meets a woman that is intriguing to her because she is so different from every woman he has ever dated. Her name is Clementine, played by Kate Winslet. Clementine is a gutsy, risk-taking strong woman who lives life to the fullest. What is most unique about her hair style, she dyes her hair multiple times in the film. They essentially start dating and really start liking each other but they just cannot stay together because they are just too different. Clementine is so distraught she decides to go through a procedure where she erases all of her memories that revolve around Joel, essentially wiping that idea out of Joel out of her head. And while this is going on Joel decides to do the same thing, not knowing she did the same thing. So they both go through the procedure. The procedure has both of them gather every kind of memorabilia that will trigger any kind of memory between them. By going through this procedure they remember every good time and bad time of their relationship. Wile the procedure is going on Mary (played by Kirsten Dunst)  Stan (played by Mark Ruffalo) and Patrick (played by Elijah Wood) are working on Joel and things go wrong when Joel wants to stop the procedure. Joel and Clementine realize that they are want to be together by the end. It is a great story that has an interesting concept.

Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet are perfect together. Kate Winslet is perfect in what ever she does, she can  almost any role and be spectacular at it. Jim Carrey is not afraid to play a dramatic role and this is probably his best film at a dramatic standpoint. He is great as the protagonist and you just feel for him every step of the way. This movie is also great because of the writing. Charlie Kaufman is one of my favorite screenwriters and he nailed it in this film. This film is one of the best love stories ever told and it is a great film to see.
