Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is one of my favorite films, and in this video I examine how it makes the point that love is worth the risk of pain.

Don't Miss Out On Your Own Life | Ferries Bueller: • Don't Miss Out On Your...
The Idea of Success is Corrupted | Nightcrawler: • Our Idea of Success is...
I have an Eternal Sunshine edit on my edits channel: • Rock and a Hard Place
Thank you again for everyone who supported my last video. It is very much appreciated :)

I saw the ending as them accepting that the relationship will end but it's still worth experiencing again. Just because it ends doesn't mean the relationship wasn't successful. “Better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all.”

It better to let go and just grow and learn from that relationship sometimes things end so cruel but eventually things will better up and one day you will be engaged with someone because you took the time heal and better yourself . Best advice I can give random stranger is to forgive yourself and them and don’t blame yourself cherish this hard moment in your life and embrace this trial because it be so rewarding once you come back just build a relationship with yourself for now

'Remember me' scene always gets me emotionally accompanied with 'Maybe we can'. I love you Julia

Well done video on one of my favorite movies ever, Schloetz. I don’t think Clem’s “meet me in Montauk” hints at a supernatural connection, though. I think the Lacuna procedure is simply imperfect. Remember the buffoonery happening in Joel’s apartment as his memories were being erased? Stan and Mary were high/drunk, and Patrick complicated/distracted the procedure as well. There was a phone call in the Lacuna office that Mary answered about a woman requesting yet another procedure. A hint at the imperfection of the erasures. Clem’s voice is just a representation of Joel’s struggle to hold on to his memories of Clem.

Many people watch this movie as a result of a breakup I was one and I think that it can be helpful but often your feelings of loss at that time can negatively influence the take away from this movie. It’s very much a hopeful message that to really experience life you must open yourself up in ways that won’t be easy or free from harm.

Love this video. I belive people who really understand this movie, really understand it with every fiber of their being. All parts of life are about risk, but love seems to be one of those parts where no matter how much you try to prepare for, to plan it out, to keep just enough walls up for, it still has the power to rip you apart in the most beautiful way possible. It's one of the most rewarding yet messy human experiences and that's why we choose it every time, burns and bruises included. That's why joel and clem chose each other all over again. Amazing commentary and perspective

This movie is very beautifuly written... really proves that when you go for it, it's the most beautiful thing you'll ever experience... even with the risk of breaking up, or not working for whatever reason... Of certian cirumstances... it hurts, you get scarred and it's the most painful thing you'll ever go through... Even with the struggles, I still truly believe that we're so connected, the idea and reality that we're meant to be... There's one in the comment mentioning "Remember me" and "maybe we can"... it hits me so hard and I feel so familiar with the toughts... It makes me believe that even with soulmates parting... there's always ways that we find each other and get back.. and know exactly how to avoid "pitfalls" as you express it in the video, Schloetz. But also how you learn so much more about yourself that you improve, how much your eyes open up.. and even if you don't like certain things about a person you deeply love... you start to appreciate them more because it's who they really are. Our minds is so powerful and so is our fears and feelings. We protect but also want the best and jealousy is a one hell of a thing.. but most important things of all, is trust. And that's what really matters, honestly, to me atleast. I've never believed in it, never thought I'd ever think of it... but, I remember you asking me to marry you. and I said yes. To be with you together forever, I said yes. To never leave you, I answered I would not. To grow old and die together... and I said yes to that with not a shred of doubt. I remember so vividly.. and I have never had any doubt about us. Ever. I still don't today.. I love you my darling, Shaina.

Beautifully said, and beautiful words. I think this might be my favorite movie that involves.. well, love. Relationships. People. It always makes me think of my past relationships, and how weirdly similar they were to the one in this movie. So hot and cold sometimes, but also? So amazing. The best times in my life. I was so happy to wake up every day next to them, and so happy to hold them tight as we fell asleep. New love is a special thing. I love Kubrick, horror, scifi, but this movie is something different entirely. One of the only things that can bring a tear to my eye, every time I see it. Along with the amazing soundtrack from Jon Brion, My God, man. This movie is just a masterpiece to me. "Everything's a memory, with strings that tie to you.."

It may be that there's supposed to be something supernatural in them knowing when to go to montauk, but clem does say to patrick on the phone that she wants to go to montauk and joel might've unconsciously heard it. The reason clem started to freak out and call patrick to say that and eventually go to montauk the day after joels procedure was probably brought on by patrick trying all that. It's sort of ironic that the creepy guy trying to use her past to get with her would inadvertently cause them to get back together.

Firstly, out of the hundreds (thousands?) of movies I’ve seen in my 50+ years on this Earth, this is my 2nd favorite of all time. Secondly, regarding the supernatural aspect, I don’t think that’s the case. They’re in his head and he’s cognizant of what’s going on, so when Joel or Clem say something that’s different than the actual memory, it’s Joel’s consciousness saying that. I think when Clem tells him to meet her in Montauk, it’s Joel saying that (likely his subconscious). Maybe he thinks there’s a chance that Clem will be there, but more likely he knows that’s where they met and he thinks that being there will trigger a memory of Clem and then he can try to find her again once he remembers her. Lastly, I just wanna say that I think this movie has one of the most beautiful endings ever and no matter how many times I watch the movie (30+ I’m sure) I can’t hold back the tears. These 2 people have pretty much the most irrefutable evidence possible that things aren’t gonna work out (imagine having your past self tell you that it didn’t work and all the reasons why), and yet they like each other enough to say damn the evidence, let’s give this a go.

I think this is a great summary of the movie. But in my opinion there is a more important topic the movie deals with. I read a coment online that said:"each time you watch the movie, you notice something new." And the last time, I watched the movie, I noticed how joe frantically tries to hide Clementine in his mind palace during the erasing process. There is even a line proceeding this, where he realises what he has done and concludes that altough he cant save his memories, he atleast has to save "her" or his "love" for her, so that he can start the relationship over. There is even a discussion between him and "mind palace clementine" (his projection of her) in which it is made clear that reminding clementine would have been his responsibility from the beginning. Wheter he is doing it for her (bc she might have used the service naively bc she was relaying on him) or bc he doesnt want to let go, is not clear, maybe both. The movie concludes that love is not erasable by simple "memory loss" aslong as you dont want to let go. In a more realistic sense, I wonder if "memory loss" is intended as a metapher for "time".Truthfully, I deeply believe that the main topic the movie beatifully deals with is break up and rekindling. My conspiracy is that Joe actually achieved something through his efforts against the memory vanishing (and so did Clementine...) My tellsign is Joes melancholic trip the next day on which he coinicidentally meets clementine. Mutatis mutandis the intuitive Clementine is going more crazy from day to day after the procedure and seems to still grasp a whole lot of her experiences. She also only now dyies her hair blue i think(?). But that might also be bc of the staff guys encroachment. Anyhow, its nice to imagine that clementine's experience of the memory wiping was similarily as lucid and that she tried equally as much. I hope you read this and understand where Im coming from. No critic intended.

wow dude this resonates with what I was thinking about today. having one day left to live, I was thinking about how I would spend it. to make the last day last. and it struck me, I think anyone would do this, to ask out a crush. this prompt me to fantasizing about that day. I wonder if it would be like that if I did live everyday like its my last day. I cant find my balls for the life of me and take that risk I've been wanting to take. I don't think I'm well prepared for it.

In many ways, I don't think anyone is entirely prepared for it. The part you prepare yourself for will only transform and grow, and you'll have to face that new challenge as well, but it's absolutely worth it
