Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

B and I just watched 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' last night
and I am blown away. All these inquiries into the nature of memory maps and
spaces I've been swirling around in.....and then this movie explodes my
head, touching on them all in a brilliant ways. I think it was AMAZING.

Silly Really odd thing too that had us unnerved and laughing so hard we
CRIED: In quite a few scenes, Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet are wearing 'our'
winter outfits- this denim coat I wear all winter with straggly fake fur
trim and the red pants, and he in the exact olive parka Brent wears....and
in one scene they're being silly running down a beach in Montauk (yep right out
here!)....and it's the oddest oddest thing because of course from the
back....it's like we're watching us in some memory on a big screen.......oh and sure, I know it's just a coincedence (or conspiracy hehe)...but it was just so...surreal.
This movie is the new 'Waking Life'.
agree or disagree?
