What will happen if two lovers would have had their first meeting in different setting? Will they still fall in love?
If they do fall in love will they have the same fights or different ones?
In my opinion(read interpretation), above things forms the central core of ‘Eternal Sunshine…’. Yes, there is a love story involved. Yes, there is a slight sci-fi angle that never overpowers the plot. Yes, there is question of morality regarding the memory erasing idea. It is a delight to understand the whole story of as it shuttles between present and past.
Kate Winslet is adorable as the girl with changing hairstyles and difficult attitudes. Jim Carrey proves once again that he has acting chops enough to portray any role. Kirsten Dunst, as the nurse madly in love with her doctor, is superb. All the characters are relatable and hence heartbreaking for what they are going through.
Sequence where Jim Carrey is trying hard to resist erasing memory of Kate by burying it in other memories is hilarious and heart breaking at the same time.
The morbid cinematography helps set the feel of film right; screenplay layered and great. The movie has taught me that, even if a love relation doesn’t last, irrespective of fight that happen, we still have cherished moments which make every ordeal in love worth it.
PS- The colored hair of the girl friend in ‘Scott Pilgrim vs. the world’ to me seem to be inspired from ‘Eternal Sunshine …’
