Plot Summary

From acclaimed writer Charlie Kaufman and visionary director Michel Gondry comes Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. An all-star ensemble cast shines in this comical and poignant look at breakups, breakdowns and breakthroughs. Joel (Jim Carrey) is stunned to discover that his girlfriend, Clementine (Kate Winslet), has had their tumultuous relationship erased from her mind. Out of desperation, he contacts the inventor of the process, Dr. Howard Mierzwiak (Tom Wilkinson), to get the same treatment. But as his memories of Clementine begin to fade, Joel suddenly realizes how much he still loves her. Kirsten Dunst, Mark Ruffalo and Elijah Wood co-star in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - a memorable film that The Wall Street Journal calls "a romantic comedy unlike any other!"

Fresh: It's the kind of film that could mean more to people after they've left the theater and thought about it awhile. – Peter Rainer, New York Magazine, Sep 27, 2004

Fresh: The thinking is shallow. The emotions are tepid. But the creativity is dazzling. – Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle, Apr 9, 2004

Fresh: Audacious, thought-provoking and ruefully funny. – Lou Lumenick, New York Post, Jun 24, 2010

Fresh: Neither wholly cynical nor wholly romantic, Kaufman's story is a balance of smarts and sentiment. – Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post, Jul 16, 2008

Wrong genre

I loved this movie, but I dont think it should be listed in comedy

one of my fav's....should be yours to

I'm shocked that this has only a few reviews, but then many likely own the DVD already. This is the thinking mans romantic movie. Very poignant and touching. Very well acted by Jim Carey, who is unfortunately sticking to his tired comedy roots. Brilliant in their time, but so overused and overplayed that it's just enough already. His natural talent for drama is amazing and this movie is no exception. The rest of the cast is spot on as well. Rent, buy....you'll love it.

Simply Brilliant

The best movie I have ever seen. Ever.
