We were lucky enough to watch Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind in Art of Film. This movie is about a man named Joel who fell in love with a psychotic girl named Clementine. The thing he doesn’t know is that he had Clementine erased from his memory after she erased him. This confusing plot makes for a great film.
I found it amazing how director Michel Gondry was able to make the movie so captivating with little special effects. I thought it was cool how Joel kept on running away from his memories being erased and as he did things behind him would fly into the sky and vanish. It made you wonder how long can he run away from his memories before he gets sucked away too. My favorite part though was when Joel went into the memory erasing office and he sees Elijah Wood’s face without any of the facial features. It was sweet!
This movie has suspense, passion, confusion and everything you could want and then some. It was a great movie, even though confusing at times. Jim Carrey did a great job playing someone that is different from his typical roles. The only thing bad I can say about this movie is that Kirsten Dunst can’t act. She tried to be all sad when she found out her memory was erased but you could totally tell she didn’t feel anything.

Finally someone who says Kirsten Dunst can't act. I also liked the minimal special EFX, but the blotched out faces were very nice. Good post.
for sure, Jim Carry did a great job acting on something he never has before. i think kristen dunst was good and cute.
