While he became famous through slapstick friendly comedies like Dumb and Dumber, Ace Ventura, and The Mask, Jim Carrey proved himself just as readily as a dramatic actor in The Truman Show, Man on the Moon, and 2004’s surreal Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. The stylish, introspective science-fiction romance (or, rather, anti-romance) follows mild-mannered Joel Barish (Carrey), a heartbroken man who undergoes a dramatic procedure that’ll erase his ex-lover, free-spirit Clementine (Kate Winslet), from his restless mind. But as he undergoes the process and relives moments of their lives together, he has second thoughts about the brain-whipping operation. From the deeply imaginative mind of director Michael Gondry and written by the brilliant Charlie Kaufman, Eternal Sunshine is a haunting, inspired portrait of broken love and faded romance, self-perception versus the reality we often choose (perhaps subconsciously) not to confront. It’s well-worth remembering.
