17 Movies That Permanently Altered People’s Brain Chemistry — For Better Or Worse

“Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind not only made me reflect on why my past relationships failed, but it also helped me appreciate the difficult things that happened in my life as ‘part of the human experience.’ I love this movie dearly.”
“This movie made me so much more reflective. It completely changed how I see relationships. I used to think of them as something you ‘got’ or ‘had,’ almost like a possession. Now I see them as journeys you take with another person — experiences that shape, bend, and mold you into someone new.”
“What we choose to hold on to and what we choose to let go of is what shapes our relationships with lovers, family, and friends. It all happens so gradually that we don’t notice it in real time — we just wake up one day and realize we’ve grown closer to, or further from, the people in our lives. Every decision we make affects our happiness and the happiness of those we love. That’s the message I took from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.“
