some movie, some poetry and some paint: eternal sunshine of the spotless mind

Rating: 9/10 (29 September 2005)

What makes a film great? This is an issue that is totally open to question. Maybe that is because there are people who do not like this film, although it is really not easy for me to understand at first. On the other hand, I believe that as an art product(we can certainly name such a movie as art, can't we?)this film forms very strong emotional links through the hearts of the audience and that is why it is qualified as "best" by lots of people. It tries and achieves lots of new and surprising things that we are not accustomed to see in cinema: a totally crazy story from a very well-known subject, that is well-known since the birth of humanity, a marvelous way of explaining such a crazy story visually and the actors and actresses who are as natural as real people who has lived the pain of love...That is why this is best among a category that it has created with itself; because if this is a just a film, than I can say that I have never watched a film.This is an art product; that has some cinema, some poetry and some paint in it.
Some people criticize this film, for using an easy subject, that may affect everybody who has fallen in love, without any effort.If this film can affect me me, as a person who has never fallen in love(sad, but true)this much, I am sure it is not really easy.
