THIS IS THE 'SEVERED: ORIGINS' BREAKDOWN OF 'ETERNAL SUNSHINE' - PT04
Welcome back for Part Four of this ultimate breakdown of "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind." If you've come this far, there's not a lot I can say. We are deeply into Joel's brain. Stan and Mary are naked at Joel's place and Weasel-Patrick is laying on the frozen Charles with a deeply manic Clementine.

Howard's coming! Joel's antics, trying to avoid the wipe, have caused him to disappear from Stan's wipe maps. Dr. Howard Mierzwiak makes an appearance at Joel's place to get it back on track.

This ORIGINS entry is a trippy 2004 title from French Director Michel Gondry. Both Dan Erickson and Ben Stiller list it as an inspiration. It stars Kate Winslet and Jim Carrey. This is considered one of the best things Jim Carrey has ever done.

Get ready for Part FOUR of this enormous movie breakdown.
