Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind: Mini Review Two


Oh, Eternal Sunshine. The first movie we watched in this class and probably my favourite of the ones we have watched. This movie tells the story of Joel and Clementine, two former lovers who are having their memories erased of the other. This movie has a very creative plot and at the beginning I'm sure everyone wishes they could contact Lacuna to have their memory erased, but as the movie goes on you realize this procedure is more of a curse than a blessing, especially to Joel. As a girl, I can be a bit partial to romantic movies, and although this was a bit of a different kind of romantic movie, there was still that romantic aspect in there that I enjoyed.
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is very different from any other of Jim Carrey's typical comedic movies, and although some actors don't do very well switching from one movie genre to the next, Jim Carrey definitely did a very good job in acting in a much more dramatic movie.
