Film Elements in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

 

            Music and sound effects in film convey an emotional impact to the viewer, often characterizing the action in a way that helps define the genre involved and that contributes to the emotional effect of the action. The music selected for a given scene helps support the emotional content of that scene and creates a very different emotional effect from the written pages so that a film edition of a novel creates an emotional response not just be narrating the story. Michel Gondry is the director of the film called "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind". The film was released in 2004. The film is combination of a romantic comedy and science fiction. In the film Joel played by Jim Carrey and Clementine played by Kate Winslet. In the film Joel is asleep and his memories of Clementine are being erased. In the scene Joel is happy but his memories are being erased. .
             In the first scene we have Joel and Clementine under the covers. Clementine talking about how she was kid she thought she was ugly. The camera goes back and forth between Joel and Clementine and it slowly goes into a close up. Then the camera goes to a chair and here is a picture of Clementine as a kid. The picture is in black and white of Clementine as a young girl. Also the camera starts to move backwards. In the scene we have sound in the background. The sound start to play when they are under the covers. The sound is smooth and at the middle of the scene the beat starts to pick up when she started talking about her childhood. She kept talking about when she was a eight years old and how she had a doll. The director did a great a job in this part of the scene. We start with a very blurry scene, while she was talking about her story. The sound picks up to faster beat. During that moment we get a close-up of the doll but it's still blurry but we can see the dolls good enough. Then we get a close up the dolls with gigantic eyes.
