Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

On a Valentine’s Day, Joel Barish takes a train and meets Clementine Kruczynski by chance. Although they do not know each other before, they feel attraction and fall in love for a short time. However, they have the history; they loved and don’t have memories of that they were together. After heartbreaking experience with Clementine, Joel decides to erase his memories through the company which specializes in a medical program can erase specific memories. Clementine has undergone a medical procedure, too. While Joel watches his memories of her fade way, he realizes that he loves her, and don’t want to loose her.

Even though he or she is a heartbreaker of you, we cannot forget the special memories with him and her. The memory at the frozen Charles River is unforgettable for Joel and Clementine. When they bring up the memory, their hearts are sinking with pain; they are in love although they cannot be together. Joel cannot allow separating the memory from her, and same as Clementine. Therefore, they choose extreme way that erases all memories when they loved. It would take time to forget somebody who loved. We need time to fade away or overlap with new memories and experiences. However, there is a chance to be not able to forget forever when you are really in love. I believe that you will meet and love again someday like Joel and Clementine. Real love is the eternal sunshine of the our lives.
