This thread's for discussing movies from the old and new top 100 that we watched just because they appeared on the top 100.
I just finished Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and I'm comparing it to the similarly surrealist Annie Hall. I honestly don't know which is better. I think Eternal Sunshine might be because it's a real look on how personality applies to real love and manages to do something Annie Hall didn't do: bring extreme realism to the lead female character, even though the interpretation is entirely in Joel's mind. Annie Hall's surrealist behavior was more of a comedy drive.
