How do you handle challenges in your relationships? What role do memories play in our personal growth?

Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright take a look at Joel and Clementine's relationship in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. They talk about some of the things that went wrong in their relationship, how they could have handled their conflicts and differences better, the desire to hide from our painful memories, and the great filmmaking techniques, especially in the memory sequences. And of course the great performances from Kate Winslet and Jim Carrey.
