and you....you would be queen

I saw one of the best films I’ve seen in recent memory on Sunday. Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. It was a rare film that even after 3 days have passed since you saw it, it is still on your mind, or at least the topic of the film is on my mind. Jim Carrey plays Joel, a man who has gone past the pretence of feigning happiness, in one scene he says something like “I just have nothing to say” therefore he doesn’t say anything, he won’t pretend to be happy for anyone. He meets Clementine, Kate Winslets character, who seems to unlock his soul. The two of them just “fit”. Clem is one of those movie or TV girls that you just wish would appear in your real life. But I digress, this movie made me think about the possibilities of meeting someone who just connect with, soul mate if you will. I can’t honestly say I’ve come across anyone in my life who has been fortunate enough to find that special person. It worries me that this is a pleasure many of us may never have.
Relationships are never perfect though and maybe I’ve just been blinded by movie love, but wouldn’t we all like some of that movie love?
