Visible crew/equipment: In the beginning, when Joel "first" goes to Kate's apartment for drinks and Kate is discussing her worry of wasting time, when the shot switches from a side shot to a straight shot, a boom mike shadow moves above Kate's head.
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)
Plot summary
Directed by: Michel Gondry
Starring: Kirsten Dunst, Elijah Wood, Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet, Mark Ruffalo, Gerry Robert Byrne
Joel (Jim Carrey) discovers that his long-time girlfriend, Clementine (Kate Winslet), has undergone an experimental procedure that erases all her memories of him after their failed relationship. Frustrated, Joel decides to undergo the same procedure and have Clementine erased from his memory. Once the procedure starts, however, Joel realizes he doesn't really want to forget her. He begins smuggling her into other parts of his memory, but this alters his other memories.
Clementine: You're not a stalker, or anything, right?
Joel: I'm not a stalker. YOU'RE the one that talked to me, remember?
Clementine: That is the oldest trick in the stalker book.
Joel: Really? There's a stalker book? Great, I gotta read that one.
Trivia: In the scene where they're looking at the elephants, director Michel Gondry pulled Kate away from Jim - so in the shot where Joel looks around for Clementine, it's actually Jim Carrey's real reaction, because he's looking for Kate Winslet.
