Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

The ways that the director used to tell the story of Joel and Clementine in The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind are truly unique. One thing that the director did very well was the use of the open ended conclusion, it leaves the view guessing, pondering, and even wondering if the couiple will stay together because of the past events. Or if the couple will stay together and live a happy life. Another thing that the dierctor did very well would be something that I think of as a scene montage instead of just a shot montage. But not only was it a scene montage but he mixed these scenes up in a specific order to confuse the viewer and to tell the story in a new way. With this scene mixed up scene montage I feel that the viewer was sucked into the film and that they were forced to figure out what was happening in their own heads.
