Beautiful heart shines eternal sunshine

I saw this movie in 2004 and I kind of forgot about it. Looked for it again.

I found out that the heroine is actually Kate Winslet (the heroine of "Titanic"), I didn't recognize it when I first watched it; there was Kirsten Dunst ("Spider-Man" series), and Spider-Man had not yet had a sequel; Elijah Wood (Frodo in "The Lord of the Rings"), the second time I saw it, I only found it familiar, and I found out after checking it. Both Kate and Elijah played very different characters from what I remembered. And then there's Jim Carrey, who I don't know if it's the only non-comedy he's ever done - that's what he seemed to be watching, at least for him.

IMDB is currently ranked 48, which is a very good result. I also saw everyone's high evaluation, but I can't recall it, so I watched it again.

It's a good story, and it's remarkable. The director's technique is also just right, and the editing is excellent. The film's leading actor, director and screenwriter were all nominated for Saturn Awards, but they won only one award that year - Best Science Fiction. Well, it's kind of sci-fi, but I don't think it's a sci-fi movie, not at all. At the Oscars that same year, the film was nominated for Best Original Screenplay and nominated for Best Actress - Kate Winslet appears to have been nominated for several awards for this film.

Whether the pain between two people can be solved by forgetting, or whether it can be forgotten at all, is a difficult question. It's like the end of the film doesn't even want to give an answer. Having a second chance doesn't mean they will be happy ever after. There will always be unsatisfactory things in life, and how to deal with them properly rather than avoid them is what we should seriously think about.

    A great love story that is quite stream-of-consciousness, thanks to the good habit of taking notes and excerpts, the flashback of the enchanting narrative of this film did not stump me. I have written a total of 7 pages of context combing + analysis and speculation. I believe that even if I don’t look back at the movie and just flip through the notes, I will have a very special feeling. I hope I have been so serious and my life will continue to be better. smile~!

    It is indeed love, love, but it is too depressing, two depressive love

  • Joel: Is there any risk of brain damage?

    Howard: Well, technically speaking, the operation is brain damage, but it's on a par with a night of heavy drinking. Nothing you'll miss.
