6. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)
For anyone who’s ever wondered whether eventual heartache was worth the potential for a real connection in human contact, Michel Gondry’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is for you. From a screenplay by luminary Charlie Kaufman the film dissects the remnants of a real world relationship between two average people. Absorbing performances from Jim Carrey (who plays it straight) and Kate Winslet turn the love story at the center of this science fiction movie into a thing of real beauty and weight. Relationships are messy and wonderful, and few films express that sentiment better than Eternal Sunshine.
