Great Movie that makes you puke

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is a great movie, great skript, great cast, great story, great acting and the worst camera EVER. 108 min of hand camera. Not a single shot with a tripod. And the cameraman wasn’t even trying to keep the camera steady. And after 50 min or so, my brain and […]
