I've seen around three hundred and fifty films that I'd consider absolutely excellent, Fame.
And here's another one:
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Michel Gondry 2004 US3rd time; DVD A man decides to get his memory erased of his ex-girlfriend, and, halfway through the procedure, realises he still loves her. Extraordinarily resonant exploration of memory, love and flawed relationships. Gondry's direction has a loose feel, very casual and very immediate, and Kaufman's script is so tightly concerned with itself, with its own narrative, that the result is a film which evokes an unusual intimacy without really concentrating on its central relationship... at least not in the conventional sense. It seems, for instance, to relish and concentrate more on those moments of embarrassment, those awkward silences which often speak more than conversations, and since it starts at the bitter end and works its way back, the ending, at once tragic and hopeful, couldn't be more explosive. Together, Gondry and Kaufman grasp these memories and wrap them together as a kind of recollection of dreams, and the real revelation of the film, the real winner, is the undying endurance of love itself. Remarkable.
