Below is an edited version of my film, I have changed the pace of some scenes and removed others.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind (2004) - Non-linear storytelling
Figure 1. Movie poster (2004) Non-linear methods: Chronicle (Linear storytelling) - The film starts off with a non-linear storytelling method. This is as the audience are unaware as to where they are, who the characters are and what they are doing. The scenes also change suddenly and time shifts backwards and forwards. The story then becomes linear once Joel starts to get his memories of Clementine removed. This is as he is in a dream state trying to stop his memories of her from leaving him. Figure 2. Joel and Clementine meeting Retrograde (Events in reverse order) - This is shown throughout the movie without the audience realising until they are nearing the end of the film. At the start of the film the audience understand that Joel and Clementine have only just met and that Joel and Clementine's feelings towards each other grow, but towards the end of the film it is made clear that not only did Clementine and Joel know each other previously, they were also
When your character lays back on the bed it freezes so you can cut a bit out there before it starts moving again (cut either side of the blink and lose that bit - 2130 to 2380). That way , by the time you say "Other times it can be a pain" the character will be already moving. Its a little stop/start silent in that sequence.
