Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind

One movie that I found to be very thought provoking and mind boggling was Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Although confusing at first I really enjoyed viewing this movie. I had to watch it several times in order to piece things together. My first time viewing it was not by choice. I had only heard of the movie once before seeing it, but I did not know what it was about. My sister and I decided to spend some quality time together, so she rented the movie. I found the movie to be very boring when it first started. It was not until he was going thru the process of losing his memory did I find the movie interesting. The music played in the movie had a large impact on the mood the movie put me it. The music was very slow. Most of the music was being played by a piano and some type of string instrument. It put me in a very calm and relaxing mood which was how the characters in the movie where. The main thing that I liked about this movie was that they relived all their memories threw their dreams. In turn, the main character fell back in love with is ex-girlfriend. There is no way possible that this could ever happen. I have heard of pills one can take to make them forget about past memories, but the people that do not take the pill will always remember what happen and may one day tell the person either on accident or on purpose. This is exactly what happened in the movie. Before the neighbor of the main character received the letter about the guy getting rid of the memory he asked him how he and his girlfriend were doing. Although this movie was not realistic, I felt it was a good movie.
