[@WreckingWood]

Imagine Clem's side when she said "So go." Her realizing she'd finally did 'let him go.' Instead of his made up goodbye as part of his 'could/would/should have done' scenarios, she faces the harsh consequences of her brash actions and can't find Joel again in the dark. He wakes with a melancholy resignation accepting this doom but she woke up with huge regret.

That broke my heart.. it felt like she was apologizing for all the times she got like that with him throughout their relationship and he didn't care about it anymore.. he just didn't want her to go.. so he said it was ok Maybe it's too much projection for me.. but that little part is really the one that gets me throughout the entire movie Their entire relationship is in those 2 small exchanges

[@annabelledee6554]

This movie crushed my heart so many times. I realized I had fallen in love with someone when it was too late. We never had a goodbye, I would just replay the few scenes I had with him in my head. 6 years later, we found each other again like Joel and Clementine in Montauk. After our first “reunited” date, it was done - I was madly in love with him all over again. We’re married now and I can’t help but think how lucky I am that we both stayed this time.

Most likely Clem did the same during her memory wipe. She acted out saying: "So go," and continued exploring but then realized that he'd be gone forever when she came back down the stairs, so she ran after him just to say goodbye.

[@Dailyfusss]

[@Vreguleift]

Anyone who's ever been in a shaky long-term relationship can feel this on a whole different level -- particularly the last 45 seconds. It gives me the same feeling that I'd get when walking through a house filled with rooms where space was shared and memories were made. I remember walking through the house after the split-up between my first real long-term girlfriend and I. Empty shelf spaces, empty couch, silent room... The only thing I found of hers was the crappy birdhouse that I helped her make, with her carving of "I Love You!" on the side of it. It's rough, looking into every corner and seeing a ghost of good times past. Her goofy stickers on the side of my TV, the place where we hung the hideous Christmas lights we'd bought, the empty seat next to me where she used to sit. This scene always makes me reflect on myself. "I felt like a scared little kid..." It's so painful to watch him say these things to a memory of her rather than the actual person, when it might've actually counted for something. Every single one of us has been there, and after so many shitty friendships/relationships, it's so hard to remember not to be the same way -- all the shit I could've said when the words might've held some actual value. So many years later and I'm happily married to the best woman I've ever met, but I still have to stop myself from going on that bullshit autopilot mode. Make every moment count. You never know when you're going to find yourself looking back on it, wishing you'd done something else.

[@willyblonka1813]

D. Prospero amen brother, I lost my best friend of four years. A person I would end up falling in love with that I never thought would leave my side, and now this movie is what tipped me over the edge in remembering everything we did together. I should’ve stayed and worked harder to get better. Even though I got to have a good bye, I still think about her at least once a day with her cute little voice, drawings she made me for my birthdays and times when wed watch movies together. I work everyday to move on and I hope one day I can really accept it and tilt my head forward again.

People don't understand how important that dialog is. They spent a life together but now she's just a girl.

[@1992mjcc]

Ecrewyy Halo I think it's the other way around, she was just a girl at that time but she ended up being his whole world.. that's what I've understood at least..

[@f.ence.]

1992mjcc Yeah, I agree with 1992mjcc, not saying I disagree with you Ecrewyy Halo 'cause this whole movie is totally up to how you want to interpret it. But, the way he says "She was uhm...just a girl" and that little smile he gives-it's almost like he understands at the end of the day (final "memory" of her as well, coincidence?) she is just a girl, but to him she is so much more than that. She's that day at the beach, or the night on the lake, every memory he's had of her, good or bad. And Jole knows that no one will know that but him, which is why he smiles, and why he says just that.

[@kevinngx]

1992mjcc I think it means both, the way she was just a girl at first, and then she became so much more than that, and finallly, she was just a girl again. The whole movie is about reverting things back to the way things were before they were together, when they were originally strangers. The line questions the viewer on where the character is at with his relationship, the beginning, or the end, and if his relationship with her at those moments are any different at all.

[@RicardoOliveira-bm2tf]

This is maybe the best dialogue I've ever seen on a "romantic" movie. The way he says "She was...uh...just a girl...", it's haunting and heartbreaking. I agree with +Ecrewyy Halo, this is about letting go.

It's absolutely insane how much Joel reminds me of myself. When I'm weak, I am Joel. This movie meant the world to me as I grew up, and it haunts me even harder now that I'm getting to Joel's age. I was recently dumped for the second time by the love of my life. I've been erased...again. Probably for good this time. She doesn't seem to want the memories. But I refuse to let go of the memories - they're precious to me and I don't regret anything. At the same time, I know it's over, and that's fine. I know it's over. But the memories? They belong to me, and I don't want to let go. Even if they hurt sometimes. I don't regret it.

If it's the love of your life, you shouldn''t conform yourself with memories... just fight for her. Every girl in the world would give a second chance (even a million chances) to a boy who demostrates her that he is crazy for her. Guys new days suffer from a huge lack of creativity and romance. Girls breathe love, romance, ilusion, sweetness... that's what we want in a boy... So think creative and always put love in every action and word... It's ok to hold memories, but life it's short and humans beings don't live from memories..., we live from love :) Give yourself a chance!

I haven't watched 21 grams...but I've seen Her and loved it. Her has some similar themes to Eternal Sunshine. Clinging to the feelings if the past, searching desperately to find them again (although this time with someone knew). I'd say Her is slightly more philosophical, while Eternal Sunshine is slightly more romantic. Both got reviews in the 90% on rotten tomatoes, but 21 grams only got 81% on rotten tomatoes.

You stood for only a couple seconds and gave me a look I'll never forget, then walked in the store. Everything I thought I forgot rushed back in one moment.

Last but not least they kept erasing one another from each other's life and getting back together again in a loop.

This scene always puts my heart in shock. It's the final memory of Joel has of Clem, and even between the beginning and end of these few minutes, you feel their relationship disappearing. The way he talks to her is much more empty. 0:44, he can't recall any of his regrets. 1:28 "It's okay".. it sounds like he's already forgetting that he's erasing her. And the way she talks to him is already so simple compared to the beginning of the scene, like he's forgotten the dimensions of her personality. And by 2:25, Clementine is gone, and whats left is a vague concept of a girl that his friends ask him about on the car ride home. Easily the most brilliant and saddest 3 minutes of all the movies I'd ever seen, no doubt. Kate and Jim do an incredibly perfect job of creating this work of art.

Why’d you have to go and do this to me man

[@enviosiris7963]

Screw you for giving me clarity and breaking my heart 😢 but thank you as well

[@kayturs]

By 2:40, one of the last things to go.. her hair color is forgotten.. I just showed my best friend this movie, and reminded me why it's still my favourite.

[@bingbongparty]

I cried so fucking much in this scene when she says 'Bye Joel'

[@hazuinf]

I love that his response to 'Bye Joel' is 'I love you'

[@mkn.567]

I'd cry too if my name were "Dong." Sorry, I couldn't resist my inner troll. But, nah, the entire movie is a kick to the throat.

[@mkn.567]

I got the lice on my pubes from you, Dong. ;)

[@Glosoli4]

I know. Like shes accepting that it is the way it is. But does it so lovingly. So heartbreaking.

[@SkateAs10]

It's one of the saddest movie scene I have ever seen. Really beautiful, heartbreaking stuff. And the music.. Oh the music..

[@oliviacasper3195]

This film scene is absolute genius. heart rending everytime.

[@knee980]

One of the only scenes in a movie that makes me cry everytime

[@skaterjay26]

This is my favorite movie. I always come back to watch this scene. This is film making at it’s best.

[@katykins2010]

What if you stayed this time?

[@mr.peaches3483]

I walked out there's no memory left.

[@alanjohnson8530]

That line kills me. It's so deep, I think it misses 99% of the people who hear it.

[@CamxCam.]

+Alan Johnson (ILL NEMESIS) That seems like a semi-egocentric thing to say, thinking that a line in a movie goes over everyone's heads except for the 1%, of which you are including yourself, of course.

[@benjaminhostetter7407]

none of us stayed, that's why we keep coming back.

[@jrno93]

Alan Johnson we all got it that's why were here dumb dumb

[@MissGeorgiex1]

This scene absolutely kills me every time. Just so well written. in heartbreak there’s always things you wish you’d said, the ending you wish had given closure even though it was inevitable for whatever reason and there’s no such thing as a perfect goodbye.

[@hartmanzach420]

Makes me cry everytime

[@B501M]

even 10 to 15 years later, the scene of the water rushing in around Jim's ankles, and him, saying, "i don't know. i wish i'd stayed... i... i wish i'd stayed..." still rings strong, clear, and true in my memory... {that's good film-making!}

[@josebro352]

Same. Saw this film in the theater in 2004 when it was released. This scene immediately made me think of a certain person. Twenty years later and it still makes me think of her. It's so surreal.

[@slizemachado4271]

Seen this movie so many times yet every time I rewatch it makes me ball my eyes out so effortlessly. Amazing piece of art

[@Erik_Ahl]

I need a hug...

[@nivledamh]

Kate is so alive,mad and angaging as clementine.Adore this movie it hits you right in the soul.its so fresh new and imaginative.

[@robertchoward]

When she said,"meet me in Montauk" I had chills from my head to my toes.

[@AncientCityMusic]

After so many years, this movie still completely breaks me.

[@savaeugenmilisin4489]

10 years next year in march since i first met her and i still wish she stayed.....

[@starscreamdakmo]

+Sava Eugen Milisin 16 years for me

[@jrno93]

Sava Eugen Milisin 6 years here but I was the one who left :(

[@Shayenejuliana]

"I wish I had done a lot of things. I wish I...I wish I'd stayed." this kills me everytime

[@simpletantra]

This is one of those classic moments in movie-making where we can all have our own interpretation but for me it stands out as a clear sign of idealistic and romantic love. That no matter how hard we try to fight it (even by erasing our memories) we will still find -- and fall for -- certain people. The movie seems to be saying that they had some sort of spiritual or special connection, even in the subconscious world, and that is how both Clem and Joel ended up going to Montauk that morning.

[@DanTube01]

Anyone still comes here every now and then?

[@Ptrixle]

All the time, it’s one of my safe spaces

[@Ptrixle]

Back again…

[@DanTube01]

🙌

[@dexio8601]

Yeah...it's one of the purest emotions you will ever feel in a movie...ending of Shawshank too...

[@sydneywarmbein7736]

My soul is attached to this scene. This movie is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen..

[@roxanne4820]

“You were scared?” “Yeah, I thought you knew that about me” I love this so much. No matter how long you’ve been with someone, gotten to know them and spent time around them, there’s always new things about them that you don’t know about yet. You’re always still learning them, and that’s beautiful. This film is beautiful.

[@Eddierangers1989]

I've known about this movie for a while. Just watched it for the first time last night. Loved it! Great movie! Maybe my favorite scene of the movie right here. Love the music that went with the scene. Just perfect!

[@kaylab9435]

This scene brought me to tears :'(

[@Idontknowwhattodo600]

Best Movie of All Time❤️

[@jackiescanlon]

"Meet me in Montauk" should go down as one of the all time great film lines in the history of motion pictures.

[@blocpartyfan97]

The part that gets me is towards the end when Joel replies to his friends asking who he was talking to: “just a girl” the way he says it is so poetic

[@ecurb10]

God I LOVE this movie! This scene is SO like being in love. WAY better dream sequences than Inception!

[@nivledamh]

This was released before inception and far better then inception.

[@urbanpkrider31]

I guess what I find so real about it is it seems to capture the process of time passing on your own memories after a break up. You must forget or detach from the emotional aspect and in doing so lose what made the memory with that person so special in the first place. But it’s necessary to move on and the person that was so special for the block of time returns to being a stranger again. Incredible film

[@noidedmonke8331]

I wish i could forget everything about this movie and watch it for the first time again ;_;

[@asilong9049]

Very tender moment. Pure. Sincere. Heartbreaking

[@Sedik66861]

The most wonderful scene I ever saw... I always have gosebumps and I'aready to cry because this is so emotional so...marvelous !!!

[@brunobaez1360]

It's nice to see those kind of fellings, at least in a movie :/ I love this movie, IDK how many times I watched already, it was so many. This movie represents true love to me, it's nice to see it, even though its a movie :/

[@WilliamAloha]

There are not too many films where there is this one classic moment which will be remembered in cinema history. I wonder if the actors realize they were part of a brilliant movie while making this.
