Hey folks, Harry here... This should be on everyone's lists for MOVIES YOU MUST SEE THIS YEAR. The film features Charlie Kaufman's best script to date, a fantastic cast and hopefully will be Michael Gondry's first perfect film. I was a bit disappointed with HUMAN NATURE, but I'm hoping that with this far stronger cast and a much better script by Kaufman, that this will be the jewel I imagined when I read it. It seems that Vincent Hanna loved the trailer. Here ya go...
Last night I saw The Shape of Things at Landmark's Century Centre in Chicago.
Afterwards, some guy asked me if I wanted to watch and rate a trailer for an upcoming movie. Lucky me, cause it turned out to be the trailer for Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
And it looks fucking fantastic.
It starts with them meeting on a train. She introduces herself as Clementine and asks him not to make any jokes about her name. He's Joel. Some scenes show them falling in love, including Clementine sitting on the statue of an elephant. But it quickly goes bad. They get into a huge fight. Something about her fucking someone else or thinking about fucking someone else. They break up. He meets with Tom Wilkinson at his office. I can't remember the name of the company. The doctor tells him they can erase all of Joel's memories of Clementine, starting with the most recent. Joel thinks it's a hoax but is soon going through with it. More scenes of Joel and Clementine in the past. A gorgeous shot of them laying in a bed that's on the beach. A scene of them arguing after Joel tells her what he's doing. Then he changes his mind.
Also, a scene of Kristen Dunst jumping on a bed in her underwear. Couldn't forget to mention that.
Carrey looks extremely similar to Six Feet Under's Peter Krause. Sort of shaggy hair and three-day stubble. This truly looks like something spectacular.
