Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - (Michel Gondry;2004;USA) - ****
When a man's ex-girlfriend gets her memories of him erased, he does the same only to realize during the process he doesn't want to forget them.
I was thinking about this film for a little over a half-hour soaking it in again like I did with my first viewing. I had to see it again after last night. This is truly one of the most creative films to come out of recent Hollywood. It's not only an outstanding film visually, but also in it's writing. I hope to see more of Kaufman's writing. This was by far the best of 2004. It also brings out a good performance from Jim Carrey in his best role, and another very good one from Kate Winslet. Gondry's direction is excellent, and it doesn't lose it's touch. The music is also great, in fact, so is everything else.
