Again these ratings aren't a reflection of my thoughts, but my mom's, on the latest Kathy's Korner where we watch a movie and talk about it later. She just watched and hated Eternal Sunshine
Mom: Bizarre. I-I've never done LSD but I thought i was on it. I was probably tripping heroin or something, i'm stuttering I can't understand what I saw. What's scarier is my son thinks is one of his favorite movies. I don't know who needs a shrink, me or him. The only thing I got out of it was Jim Carrey was in it. I-I-I don't know what to say, I'm at a loss of words, I don't know what I just watched. Bizarre. Put it…
Also! Remember love is dead and always has been, nothing matters and we're all going to die anyway. Happy Valentine's Day!
I’m not sure I have an all time favourite film but if I was pushed to pick one then Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind would be a strong candidate. It is such a wildly inventive and beautifully crafted film, both behind and in front of the camera, that it never fails to impress or surpise me, no matter how often I watch it.
Charlie Kaufman is the great screenwriter of his generation. His work is unique (even with a few imitators springing up), incredibly creative but also heartfelt and honest. It is the latter quality that elevates his scripts from being mere quirky curiosities to becoming the basis of some of the finest films of the past twenty years.…
i love this movie but when i was 16 it inspired my high school ex bf who was really into film to manic pixie dream girl-ify me & treat me as a concept which im pretty sure is what this movie says NOT to do ......! please just let us "manic pixie dream girls" be ~quirky~ in peace!
Charlie Kaufman is a man I've expressed time and time again as my new favorite filmmaker for a number of reasons. From the brilliant use of high concept filmmaking, to down the rabbit hole meta playfulness, to soul crushing drama, really, he's a man of many talents and ideas. Always ready with a story and just waiting for the right chance to tell it.
I have mad respect for the man when it comes to his craft and I've been looking forward to viewing this film for quite some time. I think even dating back to before I even knew who the man was, since anything with Jim Carry always caught my eye growing up.
So what's the story he…
How I didn't see this before my 27th lap around the sun is beyond me. This movie is so good. So original. It's films like this that reignite my burning love of cinema. #InstantFavorite
Bedsheets untucked, the curtains pulled as colors, scents and memories faded away before a person knew it. Even the inexpressible emotions he/she had once cherished drew back, retreating to some undiscovered province of forgotten territory, while his or her memories shaped-shifted with each shift they gradually became indistinct in color, vaguer than ever. Each layer was now unmistakably a layer built upon a layer of a shadow of a bigger shadow. What remained tangible and perceptible was the sense of profound absence, although not one speck of dust left behind. Eternal Sunshine has that capability to empty out your emotions then pour them back in again. Each time you see it, you discover something new, like peeling out parts and pieces of your subconsciousness to recollect what had been eradicated. Whether it is Montauk or not, you are meant to meet someone somewhere very special. It all meant "wake up and let's go."
This movie has my whole heart. IMO one of the best films ever made.
My "vocabulary is lacking." Therefore unable to really put my feelings about this film to words.
Clementine single handedly takes the pixie dream girl trope and smashes it repeatedly on the wall and i am so here for it and i love her even more for it as well also her attitude towards relationships is actually so relatable i might cry
This movie’s great and all (five stars), but if the technology to erase an ex from your memory existed, I’d camp outside to be first in line.
