What point in your life did you see it?
FutureHylian
When you think about it, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is a really sarcastic title given the film.
ilikebabyfoodhotdogs
Its from a long ass poem by Alexander Pope. https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/44892/eloisa-to-abelard
tyjet3
"How happy is the blameless vestal's lot! The world forgetting, by the world forgot. Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!" Seems fitting.

well ? WELL? you're still crying aren't you ...
I didn't cry. I didn't feel anything. What does this mean?
kevincow
Eternal Sunshine didn't really have much effect on me beyond "That was kinda trippy," but that's probably because I've never been in love.
i saw it at two points: Romanticizing relationships then After a bad breakup and a realization about "Love". Meant more 2nd time
fluhatinrapper
Personally, never liked it. Can't get into it for some reason.
cheesymouth
I watched it at 14 when it first came out, and then again after a messy breakup. It mean something different the 2nd time around.

I was in a destructive relationship for 5 years that I ended a year and a half ago. I remember browsing Netflix with one of my friends 1/2
2/2 and the exact moment I stumbled upon this movie, she looked me dead in the eye and said "don't". I wasn't ready then, maybe I am now?

Anonawesome
Negative, he seems to hate them http://jezebel.com/friends-say-jim-carreys-late-girlfriend-married-a-scien-1786861403
it seems i was wrong. damn.
He was against them in the sense of wanting companies to test them out more which is fair. Higher standard skeptics are the good kind.
No he thinks they cause autism http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jim-carrey/the-judgment-on-vaccines_b_189777.html
especially when you have a child with autism. People act like he's being militant about it when things like that are very reasonable.
Did you not read it all the way through? He believes it and what he wants done about it is more testing to be done, to be sure things are
safe which is a fair thing to believe. Don't have to agree with him, not like I do about the first bit, but asking for more testing is fine,
YourWaifuIsTrash
Seriously though, he gets typecast so much as a wacky comedy actor, but he's been amazing in serious films like this one and Truman Show.
leftypride
My parent took me to see The Truman Show when it came out in 1998, I was 7. It fucked me up for a long long time. I love it now though.
DukeDarkwood
Love Truman Show. Stellar performance. Also liked what he did in Liar, Liar. On the other hand, also love his pure comedies, like AV2.
But kinda scared to watch Sunshine based on what I'm seeing here. I get the feeling it might not be good for someone clinically depressed.

Mutual break up. Her parents hated me. It's been 2 years now and i am still sad abt it.
razetherunner
that is exactly the worst possible time to have seen that movie. it has some interesting stuff you need to be NOT traumatized to appreciate.
IvnWng
My last "serious" relationship was nearly a decade ago, I'm pretty much emotionally dry at this point. Would this be a good timing?
it'd be a good time to enjoy it for the underlying, sci-fi elements, which i liked, and the rest can still be appreciated from a distance
But... I also think I have some appreciation for how he was feeling throughout the entire ride. Being so sure of his pain 1/2
And his realization and desperation to go back and do what he can to cling to her, no matter how she hurt him. Because he was happy once 2/2
Imthinkinaboutthosebeans
Maaaaybe I shouldn't watch this one

You should watch it! Just perhaps not straight after a breakup

Same. I watched Finding Dory in theatres, and I cried through the whole movie. I'm a whimp when it comes to sad movies.

Go watch I Am Legend.
Actually I have, and that's a good movie. I also cried at the end of that one.

Sad movies? Finding Dory? Where was Dory, in a tuna can?
No, it wasn't, that's the point. It had really meaningful parts that kept me crying through the movie. It wasn't that it was a sad movie.

I've seen 'Grave' once as part of a Miyazaki marathon attempt. Had to stop after that. Even watched the credits out of stunned disbelief.

fine, ill watch it and report back.
Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood didn't even hurt me like Eternal Sunshine hurt me. Not even close.
YouCantGuessMyTHIRDDDFavoriteColor
So I should or shouldn't watch it with my girlfriend this weekend?
angelah353
Yes. It's a beautiful movie.
ZekeWildfire
Depends on how much you value the last moments of the relationship you have with her
mrtrentoncomedy
To be perfectly honest I would watch it alone first and then decide bc there's a good chance you'll never look at each other the same after
This is one of those movies where the experience is somewhat infringed upon if you have someone you love with you. It needs to be savored.
Amazingamandaaaaa
Don't, the ugly cry is real with this movie. It may bring up conversations you don't want to have with your current SO.

I don't think those two movies can be reasonably compared. Both movies affect people using different aspects of relatability.
The pain of loss over a younger sibling is different from the pain of loss of someone your soul yearns for.
Agreed, but they share 1 thing: they will fuck up your day and you will only watch them once.

I wouldn't recommend it. I can't even watch it again a year after my heart was broken. Started and had to stop.
SadToSay
It's a good movie but don't get delusions or romanticize something you won't get back. As corny as it sounds take time for you.
*SPOILERS* Which is interesting, because the original intended ending was for them to keep breaking up and forgetting and repeat

I'd wait until you've recovered a bit. It's a depressing flick, but one of Carrey's best. (I'm not a fan of his slapstick comedies) - I'd /
argue that Eternal Sunshine is not a romcom at all, but a psychological drama. It's good, but I wouldn't watch it while you're vulnerable.

This was on my list of breakup movies. Forgetting Sarah Marshall and 500 Days of Summer were on there. I don't remember all of them. It was
A rollercoaster of emotions that week but it was cathartic & helped me heal from that 6 year relationship.
For some reason, the Johnny Depp Lone Ranger made me cry my eyes out after the last time I was dumped. Movies definitely help the process.

I've never understood why people hate it. I know it's over the top, but it's SUPPOSED to be. It's a beautiful movie.
JimmySmits
I've never thought of it as over the top. I thought it was exactly what it should be. It's a perfect movie. As is Eternal Sunshine.

I don't hate it. I love it. It's just a total mindfuck for me.

I was in a destructive relationship for 5 years that I ended a year and a half ago. I remember browsing Netflix with one of my friends 1/2
ZOMG7788
2/2 and the exact moment I stumbled upon this movie, she looked me dead in the eye and said "don't". I wasn't ready then, maybe I am now?

Do it. You'll be glad you did. It not a movie. It's a life experience that you deserve to know. Hyperbole? Maybe, but not by much.

InternationalPhoneticAlphabet
it seems i was wrong. damn.
YoullBePerfectWhenYoureDead
He was against them in the sense of wanting companies to test them out more which is fair. Higher standard skeptics are the good kind.
Anonawesome
No he thinks they cause autism http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jim-carrey/the-judgment-on-vaccines_b_189777.html
YoullBePerfectWhenYoureDead
especially when you have a child with autism. People act like he's being militant about it when things like that are very reasonable.
YoullBePerfectWhenYoureDead
Did you not read it all the way through? He believes it and what he wants done about it is more testing to be done, to be sure things are
YoullBePerfectWhenYoureDead
safe which is a fair thing to believe. Don't have to agree with him, not like I do about the first bit, but asking for more testing is fine,
YourWaifuIsTrash
Seriously though, he gets typecast so much as a wacky comedy actor, but he's been amazing in serious films like this one and Truman Show.
leftypride
My parent took me to see The Truman Show when it came out in 1998, I was 7. It fucked me up for a long long time. I love it now though.
DukeDarkwood
Love Truman Show. Stellar performance. Also liked what he did in Liar, Liar. On the other hand, also love his pure comedies, like AV2.

But kinda scared to watch Sunshine based on what I'm seeing here. I get the feeling it might not be good for someone clinically depressed.

It's for this reason and brain damage induced memory issues that I have not seen it. My greatest fear is forgetting my wife.
CharlesOffdensen
Mine is forgetting my husband, still one of my fav movies. It suggests that even intentional deletion can't erase real love. Watch it.

I used to be deathly afraid I'd forget certain people. These days it hurts so much I wish I could.

Mutual break up. Her parents hated me. It's been 2 years now and i am still sad abt it.
razetherunner
that is exactly the worst possible time to have seen that movie. it has some interesting stuff you need to be NOT traumatized to appreciate.
IvnWng
My last "serious" relationship was nearly a decade ago, I'm pretty much emotionally dry at this point. Would this be a good timing?
razetherunner
it'd be a good time to enjoy it for the underlying, sci-fi elements, which i liked, and the rest can still be appreciated from a distance
ImGonnaRickRollYou
But... I also think I have some appreciation for how he was feeling throughout the entire ride. Being so sure of his pain 1/2
ImGonnaRickRollYou
And his realization and desperation to go back and do what he can to cling to her, no matter how she hurt him. Because he was happy once 2/2
Imthinkinaboutthosebeans
Maaaaybe I shouldn't watch this one
Snorky0
You should watch it! Just perhaps not straight after a breakup
JuliaWhite16
Same. I watched Finding Dory in theatres, and I cried through the whole movie. I'm a whimp when it comes to sad movies.
fuckbeans
Go watch I Am Legend.
JuliaWhite16
Actually I have, and that's a good movie. I also cried at the end of that one.
Alvatore
Sad movies? Finding Dory? Where was Dory, in a tuna can?
JuliaWhite16
No, it wasn't, that's the point. It had really meaningful parts that kept me crying through the movie. It wasn't that it was a sad movie.

I feel, for me, that I was so scared and well prepared when I watched it that the movie was as expected. it will leave you rather empty.
ComradeBones
I've seen 'Grave' once as part of a Miyazaki marathon attempt. Had to stop after that. Even watched the credits out of stunned disbelief.

fine, ill watch it and report back.

Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood didn't even hurt me like Eternal Sunshine hurt me. Not even close.

So I should or shouldn't watch it with my girlfriend this weekend?
angelah353
Yes. It's a beautiful movie.
ZekeWildfire
Depends on how much you value the last moments of the relationship you have with her
mrtrentoncomedy
To be perfectly honest I would watch it alone first and then decide bc there's a good chance you'll never look at each other the same after
TheEntireScottishNavy
This is one of those movies where the experience is somewhat infringed upon if you have someone you love with you. It needs to be savored.
Amazingamandaaaaa
Don't, the ugly cry is real with this movie. It may bring up conversations you don't want to have with your current SO.

Start by watching Grave of the Fireflies, then Eternal Sunshine will be a lighthearted comedy
ScimitarsRUs
I don't think those two movies can be reasonably compared. Both movies affect people using different aspects of relatability.
ScimitarsRUs
The pain of loss over a younger sibling is different from the pain of loss of someone your soul yearns for.
DH11
Agreed, but they share 1 thing: they will fuck up your day and you will only watch them once.

Hands down one of the best films of the decade. Also, Ms. Dunst pogoing on the bed as they fry his brain is... memorable. No pun intended.

I wouldn't recommend it. I can't even watch it again a year after my heart was broken. Started and had to stop.

It's a good movie but don't get delusions or romanticize something you won't get back. As corny as it sounds take time for you.
