Boy meets girl

Just watched: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Man that was a great movie. Charlie Kaufman (the guy who wrote it) is something apart from everything else there has ever been. His movies have a way of touching you that you can't explain or ever have expected. Honestly Eternal Sunshine is really an age old story of boy meets girl, boys loses girl, boy gets girl back. The oldest story there ever was, but it gets a completely new face when Kaufman puts his seal on it.

Jim Carrey may have put in his best dramatic performance ever and Kate Winslett was awesome as well.

It's funny how a movie that is really so convoluted can seem so pure. I could ramble on and on about Kaufman's genius and how well Michel Gondry shot the film, but I'll just leave it at Filet Mignon.
