Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, starring Jim Carrey, is a screwball comedy about a relationship between Joel and Clementine. The two characters are complete opposites and find their relationship on the rocks many times. Joel sees Clementine and to his surprise she has no idea who he is. He later finds out that she had her memory of joel "erased" and will never remember him again. Joel decides that he will do this procedure as well and while he is in the process he takes us through his memory. I thought that the way the story was shown through Joel's mind was very interesting along with the techniques used such as the fades and have voices ecko. The idea of erasing someone's mind was very interesting to me and kept me entertained throughout the film. I also thought that Jim Carrey did a good job playing his character which seemed like it would be hard to act.
