Kirsten Dunst Is the Unsung Hero of ‘Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind'

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind celebrates its 20th anniversary today, and it's just as emotionally devastating now as it was in 2004. The surreal science fiction romance has become a beloved cult classic over the years and may see a new wave of recognition thanks to Ariana Grande naming her latest album Eternal Sunshine and referencing the film throughout. Directed by Michel Gondry with an Academy Award-winning screenplay by Charlie Kauffman, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind uses a thought experiment to tell the doomed love story of Joel (Jim Carrey) and Clementine (Kate Winslet): if you could erase someone from your memory, would you? And, more importantly, should you?
