beautiful films week: 6

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Is it breathtakingly gorgeous? No, I wouldn't say so, but it is a beautiful film. It's striking and memorable; different scenes get stuck in your mind, and all the details in them stay fresh, a testament to how all the elements work together to impact you. It's honest, but in a sort of fantastic way. I love it, with all the flashbacks and piecing together, like living in a surrealist painting. Very fun.

I loved this movie. I have seen it so many times now. And everytime I just eat it up. I dont know what it is, but it draws me in. Fantastic flim.

Id like to think in a different life I could change my hair like Clem did too. I dont have the guts to do it in this one.

I used to dye my hair all the time, but I never bleached it out first to it wasn't very drastic. I've had blue, purple, green, hot pink, and black. Black mostly.
