The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
begins with a high angle shot of Jim Carrey laying in bed. He looks lonely and
is unshaven, his flat is dull and shabby. A medium shot is used to show him
sitting up in bed, looking fed up.
His day has barely begun and as he goes
outside to his car he sees it has been scratched and dented by the neighbours.
Carrey's character comes across spineless and weak as he doesn't confront his
neighbour about the marks on the car and only leaves a note behind saying
"thank you".
He then gets a train to Montauk, New York
before calling in ill for work. This shows the character has maybe become bored
of his life and so seeks a change by doing something different.
