In Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless
Mind is a romance movie starring Jim Carrey. Not seeing Jim Carrey in a comedy movie
made me think I wasn’t going to like it adding to the fact that I don’t even
like falling in love and then erases each other from their memories, literally.
They find each other again and fall in love again then find out about their previous
relations and start again knowing it might repeat. I thought this movie was
cool because they weren’t your typical couple. They didn’t have any ridiculous obstacles
they had to overcome to be together. They mutually broke up because they didn’t
like each other anymore and had real problems. They both go to a place where
they can have the other person wiped completely from their mind. To do this
they must get rid of every single thing they have that relates to the other.
Then they go to their homes at night and undergo the process in your sleep. During
Jim’s procedure he wanted to stop it and was trying to hide in his memories
while saving his memory of Clementine, his girlfriend in the movie. There’s a
cool camera technique they use when he’s in one of his childhood memories where
he is hiding under the table. The movie makes it one scene, but It took many
takes because it switched from his view he is a kid being played by a different
kid actor. When Clem is looking at him he is Jim Carrey. They both however fit
under the table which means that they had two different tables for the scenes.
They also have the beginning of the movie really be the ending which is cool.
There is also the part where he is in his memories and the movie goes from
romance to sci-fi action. Cars start falling they are traveling memory to
memory. It gets more dramatic and fiction like. This movie was a good romance
movie that wasn’t lame like other ones, and very cool characters and an
interesting story.
