eternal sunshine of the mind 2004

clementine: when I was a kid, i thought I was {ugly}. i can't believe I'm crying already. sometimes I think people don't understand how lonely it is to be a kid, like you don't matter. so, I'm eight, and I have these toys, these dolls. my favorite is this ugly girl doll who I call Clementine, and I keep yelling at her, "you can't be ugly! be pretty!" it's weird, like if I can transform her, i would magically change, too.

joel: [kisses Clementine] you're pretty.

clementine: joely, don't ever leave me.

joel: you're pretty... you're pretty... pretty..
