What really fuels Kate Winslet's character Clementine to erase Jim Carrey's character Joel from her memory in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind?
The Big Picture There are few romantic movies more impactful than 2004's Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Written by auteur Charlie Kaufman – famous for his cryptic, cerebral storylines – Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind tells the story of a couple doomed to forget each other. Though we meet awkward protagonist Joel Barish alone on Valentine's Day, catching a train to a freezing cold Montauk beach, we soon learn he hasn't been that way for long.
One night, Clementine arrives home later than expected. Disheveled and drunk, she tells Joel that she "kind of, sort of" wrecked his car. She calls him an old lady, he calls her a wino, he accuses her of cheating on him, and Clementine storms away. In any other love story, this would likely be the start of an extended period of breakup grief. In the reality of this break-up movie, though, that pain isn't a necessary part of life.
