Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind

Movie Review | Ali | 3rd September 2004

They say the average human only uses 5% of his brain. Charlie Kaufman is certainly not the average human, and if scientific boffins were to poke their bits and bobs into his frontal lobe, I think you'd find the results to be most startling.
