Genre and ‘Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind’.

The 2004 film, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind raises the question of ‘if you could erase the memories of your ex-lover, would you?’ As a film, its genre is seemingly quite ambiguous: it switches back and forth between memories and reality; love and un-love in a non-linear fashion that also skips between romance and science fiction. The genre of a film is traditionally seen as being a form of classification; it refers to a number of factors that go some way to defining it: “type of presentation (epic/lyric/dramatic), relation to reality (fiction/non-fiction), level of style (epic/novel), kind of plot (comedy/tragedy), nature of content ( ...

The following analysis of Persona and Solaris reveals how movies from unlike countries and of different genres portray the development of opposite human personalities while losing or gaining humanity under the external influences and internal self-recognition. The attempts to create a fine movie about internal and external of human life do not often impress much, especially nowadays when we experience an endless flow of visual images. Probably, it inspires people to look back at the classic works that not only represent the unusual transformations in the forms of self but also produce extraordinary rhythms in the scenes (Tarkovsky 113). ...

Walt Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs provides an appealing story with various themes and messages. Originally aired in 1937, the film now appears dated; as could be expected, it is rooted in its period. It is culturally important as the globe’s first full-length cartoon, but watching it against the backdrop of today’s society exposes the film’s stereotypes and attitudes towards romantic love. A feminist critique reveals the abusive and superficial nature of romance in the film, whereas an anti-capitalist analysis of the story demonstrates the strong links between money and power.

But in India, it is a picture of relief. Similarly, the intermittent animal ( ...
