10 Mysterious Or Bizarre Movie Titles With Disappointingly Boring Explanations

3. Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind

Okay, so this isn't so much a 'boring explanation' - more of a 'without explanation'. Don't get me wrong, ESotSM is a cracking show but really, what does Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind even mean? As far as I'm aware, it bares no significance to the story. Does it make sense - honestly? Is it ever explained? Even Tom Wilkinson's surgeon can't put a specific name to it! I will gladly welcome your explanations in the comment section if you could put together a solid defense of the movie's naming. To summaries the film in a few short words, Jim Carrey wants to erase ex-lover Kate Winslet from his mind by becoming a recipient of Tom Wilkinson's new surgery designed to physically remove specific, unwanted memories. It really is as beautiful and bizarre as it sounds.
