Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

The title for this film is just a wordy way of saying “Ignorance is bliss.” The movie is about Joel (Jim Carrey) and Clementine (Kate Winslet), a couple who undergo surgery to remove all memories of each other after a bad breakup. They believe that if their minds are rid of any memory of each other, then they can be eternally happy, but they soon come to find that knowledge is power.
