Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Warning: Spoilers

Just finished watching Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind again. I never really agreed with the ending of the film when I watched it at the cinema. Something about it didn’t quite sit right with me. The last 10-15 minutes felt a little bit tacked on and didn’t quite fit with the rest of the film. I don’t know if this is because I wanted it to end differently. I always felt that they shouldn’t have found out that they erased each other. I think they should have just fallen in love with each other without knowing that they had already fallen in and out of love with each other before. I think at the time I felt as if they had rewritten the ending after initial screenings

Having seen it a second time, I think I have changed my mind and think that the ending works a lot better than I thought initially. They decide that they want to be with each other even though they know that they are likely to find massive faults with each other in the future.
