Now Playing: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)

I already forget how I used to feel about you.

RATING: 5/5

CATEGORY: Romantic Drama-Comedy

I liked this film the 1st time I saw it. The 2nd time, I fully understood it. The 3rd time, I fell in love with it.

Too much conversation in films bores me but this film which won the 2005 Oscar Award in Best Writing [Charlie Kaufman, Michel Gondry & Pierre Bismuth] nailed my taste with a good combination of serious-comic dialogues and dizzying flashback scenes that will somehow mess your mind.

Indeed, the story is about the mind and how powerful love is. I wouldn't want to spoil it for those who haven't seen the film so I won't discuss the plot here.

 

Other than the plot, I love the script and one of the songs in the soundtrack (Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometimes by Beck). As an avid Jim Carrey fan, this is one of his noteworthy serious portrayals to date.

Below are some of the lines which struck me most, courtesy of IMDb:

Separated at Birth: Thick + Dane

Eric Dane a.k.a McSteamy plays the role of Dr. Mark Sloan in Grey's Anatomy

American Grammy Awardee, Robin Thicke launched his Sex Therapy album last December 2009

Now Playing: Migraine + Sex Therapy

Inspired by my recent migraine attack... I stumbled upon Moonstar 88's Migraine.

Next in the list is my recent LSS, Robin Thicke's Sex Therapy. A must add to your sexy-time playlist.

On a funny note, my friend told me that this song seems familiar to her...like it was some sort of a revival. She hummed as I try to figure out the lyrics... Watch the 1st video and the next. You'd be surprised how similar the lyrics and melody were.
