Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind


           This film was a very interesting film, it needs your 100% attention to watch it.
its about a guy called Joel Barish (played by Jim Carry) who is a loner, so to speak, very awkward and keeps to himself a lot. he falls in love with a rather crazy and out going girl called Clementine Kruczynski (played by Kate Winslet). After a very long love affair between them they get into an argument and break up. they feel so depressed about the break up that they go to this witch doctor who managed to create a technology which erases an ex lover or present lover who you would like to forget about.
             The story begins with the ending of the film and plays back through how everything happened. After the break up clementine acts like Joel doesn't exist and is seen with another man, it makes us think that she is being selfish and doesn't want anything to do with him any more. Joel then goes to this witch doctor who puts him onto a machine and they start playing back all the memories of Clementine and Joel together, first the bad ones so it makes us realise why he is doing this. She is portrayed as a selfish person who is always arguing with Joel and doesn't really love him. Then all the good memories start to come back and Joel realises that he doesn't want to forget Clementine any more, so he tries to go into memories which clementine was never in to begin with. Unfortunately the which doctor manages to pin point which part of the brain Joel is hiding Clementine, on this machine, and when he wakes up he forgets that she ever existed
            They somehow find their way back together and find out that they both had each other removed from their memory. they fall in love all over again.
            This film is a very good example of destiny in the fact that even though Joel and Clementine lost their memory of them two ever being together they some hoe found a way back to each other and fell in love all over. they were destined to be together.
             I really enjoyed this film and thought it was particularly sweet because it gives hope to every type of person, weird, depressed, etc, to find love. I was like nothing could keep them apart even though they don't recall anything of each other.

this is a good memory of Clementine, and he is trying to not forget her so he takes her to his past.

After they both found out that they erased each other from their minds and still get back together.


In this film conflict is shown, but not really in a physical way but in more of a psychological way. The facet that they went to erase their memories of each other because they were so depressed that they weren't together any more. this is the type of conflict that is shown throughout this movie, along with the fighting between Joel and Clementine.
