Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was a blind find for me when I was growing up

Think it was early to mid 10s I watched it when I was in college (UK - not uni). Which was when I was starting to really get into movies. I found out what indies were and was literally just looking up lists of movies, seeing the director and actors (even then sometimes just the title was enough) and I would just go and find a way to watch it.

Eternal Sunshine was the pinnacle find of this period in my life, I think. At the time it was my favourite film which didn't get toppled till Blade Runner 2049 came out. I've watched it countless times and I still find out new aspects to the film that I either missed or have forgotten since the last rewatch. I always recommend it to people who haven't seen it.

So good, but so emotionally exhausting. We usually watch it when it's on, but sometimes i just don't have the energy for it.
