Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind (2004) 8/10

Starring : Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet, Elijah Wood, Kirsten Dunst, Mark Ruffalo, Tom Wilkinson
Director : Michel Gondry
Running Time : 104 mins

Joel Barish (Carrey) discovers that his girlfriend Clementine (Winslet) has had all evidence of him erased from her memory in the hope of moving on with her life. Devastated, Joel decides to undergo the same process, but as his memories start to disappear, he remembers all the good times they had together and fights to keep all knowledge of her intact.

A charming film, filled with typical Charlie Kaufman motifs, this could be quite confusing for people who aren't used to the back-and-forth method of direction used to tell the story in this film. Other than that it's a fantastic movie, well worth looking into if you get the chance!
