Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind (best scene)

The car full of sand is the part that always gets me. He's reached the end and he's still holding onto that beach for as long as he can.

[@josebro352]

This film hits me on a very personal level. I have an old friend who I loved very much and haven't seen in years. We met on a beach and coincidentally the last night we ever spent together was also on a beach. Complete circle. She'll always have a place in my heart.

[@azimuth457]

I love how they tried to forget each other but in the end still found each other again, even though they tried so hard to forget. just goes to show you that love works in mysterious ways...

[@nopeteys2424]

The main point of the movie is that we can’t fight our own destiny. Even after Joel and clementine erased each other they still had a connection and couldn’t help but meet again. And once they realized they had already dated and it fell apart and that it would most likely happen again, they chose to be together for however long it lasted, because the good moments of love are worth the risk of heartbreak. It’s a crazily deep movie.

[@travelingalaxies9282]

@@nopeteys2424 did they stay together at the end tho? I thought they went their separate ways.

[@novachikun]

They found each other again and agreed to keep trying to make it work, despite their individual challenges. That's the point of true love, caring for your partner and being loyal to them in spite of their imperfections, focusing on the qualities that captured your heart in the first place.

[@michaeljmobley]

I have someone that I'll always love but I need to forget. 3,000 miles of distance can do that to a person.

I think that when they forgets, don't learn the mistake and still found each other again.

[@ford4793]

I'm currently in one like it. This film makes me appreciate it so much and makes me really know how much she means to me. Helps me know that things might end, and that that's okay. Helps me feel things I didn't know I could feel. I cry everytime I watch this scene. I've never had that with a film before. I don't cry at films really. But I couldn't stop when I watched this. It's so real to me and the representation was perfect.

[@LittlefoxElle]

@@ford4793 agreed. Me too right now. The most magical, life changing relationship, liked him for 11 years, dated for 6. But I wont allow him to propose everrr bc im too detached, independent and skeptical of “forever”. But I am too much for him. 😞 or maybe not enough.

[@RAAM90]

there's something so painfully honest about this movie but it kinda hits home with this scene. that's why i love Charlie Kaufman. his writing seems so real, so lived-in. It's beautiful. This is my favorite movie of his.

[@aneal191]

[@CharlotteElizabeth92]

This direction and score combined is nothing short of a masterpiece.

[@geroinpronin5935]

What a strange calming and nostalgic feeling. To see this scene 4:3 and 240p now, 12 years after upload on YT.

[@umbrellaBuddha]

What I love about this scene is it's showing us all what it could be like if we just talk honestly how we're feeling and not be defensive. The way they are talking here as impending deletion of the memory is looming is really loving and modest - stripped of any negativity.

[@jackiescanlon]

[@MrChassmith]

When he walks out the door the second time, Clem calls him "Joely" - just what his mother called him. Hearing this has the emotional power to bring him back when perhaps nothing else could.

[@andrewbuys4822]

And this is the scene where a new memory is created -“meet me in montog” - when he came back instead of leaving … which survives and enables them to reunite …

[@Fontenelle2307]

It was the only time in the movie he sayed "I love you". And was the best.

[@AK-oc7sb]

The direction, the cinematography, the score, the writing, everything. This film (especially this scene) is just perfectly done. I love the duality of this scene with Joel’s conscious remembering the memory as it was and then the current Joel breaking away from the procedure/memory to give his final goodbye to Clementine before she is completely wiped from his mind. It’s so heartbreaking.

[@DlcEnergy]

the sad thing also is that this is his own imagination thinking of all this. his own subconscious side filling what it knows about her and making her kind. because he loves her.

[@RakibFiha]

Damn, that's deep.

[@allendrake6960]

And intentionally leaving in so many details about her behavior making him deeply uncomfortable? That doesn't make any sense towards your claim. Doubt it.

[@Fontenelle2307]

​@@allendrake6960 because without this unpleasant moments the "Joel's" Clem would not be legit to him and his own mind. This is why DLC ENERGY made a right argument about.

[@erathorsmash6941]

@@allendrake6960 Did you see the film? All of those sort of scenes are in his own head, so of course its his own subconscious filling in details. After all they're having conversations that didn't happen in reality, so his brain has to fill in her side of the conversation :P

[@teody7240]

I thought this was one his last memories of her. this is the time when he first met Clementine. In this scene, they are having conversation about they must have a proper closure. And for the last time, Clem said "Meet me at Montauk"

[@PumkinGod9]

This and the library scene are just so deep best romantic movie ever

[@TheOiler1989]

I like the ride home after when the last of the memories are being erased as Joel stares out of the car trying to hold on to them. The memory erasure worked backward. What he didn't like got erased first. What he loved about her was left, so he tried to hold on to those memories as one by one they were taken.

[@luciddreamer326]

One Unique feature of this film is everytime the main character speaks, the music stops and when they don't talk the music continues. Kind of like the opposite of many movies where in the music is blended thru the dialogues

[@thesteffie]

I love this movie and I love this scene especially, it's so moving...because at this point, all Joel can feel is just loss and regret about everything that has happened. It proves that petty differences don't matter and that love is the most important thing.

[@masonhughes141]

One of the best scenes in a movie if not the best. You go through all the feelings and can just feel what Jim Carrey/Joel was going through as the last bit of his memory of his love just disappeared forever. It's beautiful

[@josephcoffey2175]

I love this movie, heartbreaking, and beautiful. i showed this movie to my wife. This scene made her cry. It was actually one of the first movies we watched together. With such a powerful moment in the movie, you can truly never erase someone from your memories.

[@rubysparrow479]

@jakesully Sometimes the answer is best left to your imagination. I find reality always intrudes and still never gives you the correct clues.

[@kaoskwien]

I always watched in a more pessimistic way. Even if they try again it's doesn't mean than love concerts all. It's just means we are foolish enough to think that their second try won't go wrong. Even if we know better. But still I am a huge fan of this movie besause

[@AGentertainmentofficial]

Well, when he said that, it was actually before he became intimate with her. The line is powerful because the movie took us from the end of their relationship to the beginning, and in all of our past relationships, she is always "just a girl"... at first. Because we know the outcome of their relationship makes the line a stroke of genius in the script. Well deserved Best Original Screenplay Oscar.

[@mydearzampano]

Time doesn’t heal all wounds, but we grow around the parts that are taken from us. The void of those missing pieces, in their own way, become part of who we are. I can’t tell you anything that will take the pain away. There is no shortcut. You just have to feel it until you don’t anymore. The best anyone can do is offer you the consolation that, in time, though the wound doesn’t ever fully heal, you can separate the pain of the loss from the joy of and gratitude for what you once had. Keep your head up.

Watched it this year and cried my eyes out. Got my brother to watch it and he didn't shed a tear. I really do think you have to have 'that' kind of relationship to appreciate what it's trying to make you feel. All love is different, which is the best part. But this film was made with a certain love in mind.

@@ford4793 Man you took the words right out of my mouth, I hate the fact we’ve both experienced that type of love before because it’s that sort of love that you can never quite get back.
