Now restored in 4K, Charlie Kaufman, director Michel Gondry, and Pierre Bismuth won an Oscar for this film’s imaginative original screenplay, which drew inspiration from Alain Resnais’s Je t’aime, je t’aime (1968) and Hiroshima mon amour (1959).

A heartbroken young man (Jim Carrey) discovers his ex-girlfriend has had her memories of their relationship erased, and he reluctantly undergoes the same procedure in this fantastical yet emotionally grounded romantic comedy-drama.
