Scholarship: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Alas, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) was a bit before this blog's - or even its short-lived predecessor's - time, but it nevertheless is an articulate film that should most certainly not be overlooked. (It is after all in my list of Top Films on the right.) And, to that end, it pleases me greatly to link you to this issue of Acidemic, a journal of film and media, that takes on the film full-form by gauging in several articles the various techniques, symmetries, and considerations that make the film and its makers worth remembering. (Particularly interesting to my eye is the first article about director's, Gondry's, use of color in the work.) Take it in, enjoy!
