ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND

4 out of 5. Three highly imaginative and creative minds come together in Michel Gondry's ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND. It seems almost as rare as sighting a comet but this perfect storm of talent represents a time in Hollywood when creative films could still get made. I believe it was the first thing I'd seen of Gondry's work and have gone onto check out his THE SCIENCE OF SLEEP which is also enjoyable. The acting is wonderful and as surreal as the Charlie Kaufmann's story gets Jim Carrey is pitch-perfect in his reckless abandon. This movie does not disappoint in the least.
