Synedoche is depressing. Eternal Sunshine is heartbreaking.

Also Eternal Sunshine is just straight up more accessible. I love Synedoche, but the average person is going to have no fucking idea what it means and thus not be moved by it at all. Anyone who's been through a breakup and the process of trying to move on can connect with Sunshine.

Why did she have to be such a bitch about it? She treated him like an anchor weighing her down when it was he who made a huge sacrifice by staying someone he kind of sort of just met with so much baggage. He also loved her for who she was and just wanted to be with her no matter how successful she was or wasn't. All she saw was how much in life she had to compromise in while it was all her fault to begin with

I don't buy that. Synecdoche didn't impact me much. Something about it that I can't quite put my finger on didn't work. Same with anomalisa. Kaufman is just too hit or miss for me.

Blame auto correct. Still sadkino

>>79415595
I did. What happened after we broke up was arguably just as heartbreaking as the breakup itself.

Long story short:
>met our senior year of college
>fell madly in love
>had the time of our lives
>planned on moving to NYC together
>ended up having to move to LA for my career
>we tried to figure out a way to make it work, but it caused a rift we couldn't get over
>she started fucking her roommate to try to get over me, and eventually moved to NYC with him instead while I went to LA
>a year passes
>we randomly start talking again via text for some reason
>become friends again
>remember how well we get along, how natural and right it feels
>find out she's been having relationship problems with the roommate, and i still hadn't found anyone new either
>go to NYC for new years 2014 to see some friends
>meet up with her to get drinks and catch up
>end up spending the whole night together
>kissing passionately, cuddling close, just like old times
>have to leave the next day
>i'll never forget getting on the train and watching through the window as she cried on the platform
After that we realized we were both still in love with each other. We talked a lot about doing a long distance thing until one of us could move to the other's city, but time along with the guy she was seeing getting psuedo suicidal about it kind of pulled her away and there was nothing I could do. In the end when I asked her if I dropped everything and moved to new york that day, would she leave the other guy to be with me, she said no. That was one of the worst feelings I've ever experienced. It was just as bad as when we broke up the first time.

We still talk from time to time, but I have to make sure to keep it contained now because I know I can't trust myself with her ever again. I'll always have a piece of her, however small, that I just can't get rid of.

fucking heartbreaking story anon, i feel like similar would happen if me and her met up again, we almost did a mere 6 months after it was over, and she cancelled because of "short of cash", I think we both knew that was a lie.

We both knew we'd be falling in love again as soon as we met, I think part of her still knows this and it keeps her up at night just like it does for me.

>I'll always have a piece of her, however small, that I just can't get rid of.

that's the killer, why on earth would I want more small pieces from individual lovers, or is it always one small piece? I feel like it's always just going to be the one no matter how many future relationships I have.

Deep down I feel this is something I will carry forever.

>>79415889
Nothing homo about having emotions anon. Feeling is healthy.

The worst part is, last night I made the mistake of going through our message history for some thread on /r9k/. Went through the whole thing, through the ups and the downs, all the way back to our very first conversation. It was honestly like OP's movie in real life. I haven't felt that hard in a long time. Now I'm just fucking empty.

If contacted act super confident and happy then tell the cunt you're busy, hang up and ignore her for good. Don't post random social media faggot shit just cut the bitch out fo your life and tell yourself it was all a lie since that's what it was ans she never truly "loved" you despite saying so... Hell maybe she even thought she loved you it turns out she didn't know what that even meant which is why your relationship turned to shit on a dime due to her choices and lack of confiding in her significant other...

Went into this expecting some good film talk but I wasn't ready for the feels. I dated a girl for 3 years and was absolutely head over heels for her, it crashed and ended horribly and sure you'll have that "piece" of them but the thing about it if you're reading this and feel that way is there will always be somebody better, and it's important to not hold that ex-lover to such a high pedestal because memories make you look back with rose-tinted glasses. There will be someone that makes you just as happy, if not more. Just have to let yourself be willing to go through it all.

>>79416089
Well, you could stop talking to her, that would probably help. Delete her number from your phone and facebook would be the first step, then telling her to "fuck off" literally next time she calls or texts to break it off conclusively. Next step would probably be to make yourself more available. If your job doesn't allow for much social interaction with available women, then consider picking up a social hobby like bowling, bike riding, surfing, fan conventions, etc.

At this rate you're going to keep crawling back to her feet to lick her boot every time she calls which is exactly what she wants. But if that's your thing then the least you can do is stop bellyaching about it

This >>79415789 anon here and yeah that's definitely true to a point - I've had relationships since breaking up with the girl in question, one which was just as serious and that I thought might even end up being the girl I married, but when we broke up it was still nothing like what it was like to lose ""the"" girl (quotes because obviously the idea of their being one ""the girl"" is stupid. more or less using it for lack of a better term.) I rarely ever think about that second serious relationship at all anymore, but for whatever reason I keep going back to that one girl. I absolutely believe there are other people out there I will meet and hopefully get along with and have serious relationships with, but that doesn't change the fact that a part of me will always belong to her, no matter what I do.

That's what I did when we broke up. We didn't talk for a full year after that. It didn't change anything.

I don't hate her. I think she's a good person who has some unfortunate attachment and mental heath issues that make her terrified of being alone, which is why she jumps from one relationship to the next without ever spending any time single. Real relationships are waaay more black and white than "she fucked someone else after you broke up, tell her to fuck off and never think about her again."

Nah man, you're just feeling that right now because you're still not over her. It changes man trust me, after about a year of dating and having break-ups that didn't compare to """her""" I just took some time to myself and focused more on myself, which did wonders for my life and now I'm single but I definitely have feelings like when I was with her just through having casual conversations with a girl I'm chatting up with. There's no real set standard for time it takes to get over someone that important to you but trust me, you'll feel that way again, it's just a matter of time and patience with a sprinkle of self reflection

>>79416362
Oh god, I didn't even realize that this was the reason for all the crying.

>she jumps from one relationship to the next without ever spending any time single
>I think she's a good person

Yeah, you're definitely retard. You got played by some slut that you were dumb enough to fall for and will forever remain on her leash as she'll always call you up when she's feeling lonely to make you her emotional tampon and get that little extra needed boost to her fragile ego. Hell, maybe in 10 years when she's lost her youth and looks and has a bastard in tow, you'll be the insuranc... guy to man up and help secure her financial security so you have the privilege of fucking her used up cunt once a month as she's already getting satisfied on the side by someone else before divorcing you and taking every last dime you have.

>You honestly believe you're the only one's that have ever felt this way and everyone telling you to get over yourself has never "experienced true love"
Never said any of that. Look, clearly you've been very hurt by someone and chose to deal with it in a different way. If deciding to absolutely hate a person you once cared about is the only way for you to move on, then more power to you. I'm not judging you for that, so I'd appreciate it if you didn't judge me.

You know nothing about the specifics of my relationship, the breakup, or anything that's happened since.
>You got played by some slut that you were dumb enough to fall for and will forever remain on her leash
is some of the worst projecting I've ever seen. Like I said, real relationships are much more complicated than "she's a fucking slut bitch because she slept with someone else when you broke up." It's your prerogative if you choose to demonize the other person in order to move on. That's not how I'm doing it.

I just got done watching La La Land and now I want to die.

>>79416722
People are nowhere near as complex you make them out to be, anon. Neither you or I and especially not any women.

I was hurt once but after separating myself from the moment and taking a step back from everything, I saw how she always reveled in the attention other men brought her and created as much drama as possible as she could because she thieved on it. She wasn't a bad person either, and I'm sure she didn't even know what she was doing herself, but thinking of the guy that came before me and the one that came after, I realized that's how her brain operated. To be fair, I still think about her every now and then and appreciate the times we shared but I be lying if I said I'd do it all over again knowing what I know now.

You're just a little polyp that loves wallowing in their misery and letting everyone else know it as you consider it an extension of yourself. If you're so bound and determined to live life that why then please do, just don't subject the rest of us to your obnoxious self-pity

People are absolutely complex, and the way they relate to each other is infinitely moreso. To say other wise is fucking retarded. And who's forcefully subjecting anyone else to their self pity? Look where you fucking are: a thread about sad movies on the day before Valentines day. An anon asked me about it, so I told him. It was you jaded motherfuckers who came out of the woodwork and started subjecting people to your bullshit. Every person is different and every relationship is different. Just because you experienced something and dealt with it one way does not mean it applies universally. Stop trying to make it seem like your experiences are the end all be all.

Everyone can relate to the broad themes of love, loss, and moving on. It's the specifics of each relationship that vary wildly from one another.

>>79417218
wasn't asking to be snide or anything, I'm just genuinely curious as a comms major of other people's opinions on the matter
couldn't you technically compare a relationship to let's say a cup of microwaveable noodles, sure they're all in styrofoam cups and have the dust packets, but is one specific dust packet worth obsessing over and worth stating it's special when most people have had a cup of ramen and know what it tastes like?

This.

>>79417321
I don't think it's that simple. I don't know if there's really a good comparison to make to it, but I think it would be more apt to use something along the lines of music. Plenty of people have experienced and enjoyed the genre of hip hop, but when you get down to the specifics peoples opinions vary drastically. Someone might love Kanye, others might love Notorious, or POS or Run the Jewels or even fucking Macklemore. They all like hip hop, but their specific experiences can still be drastically different. It's not the best comparison but I think it kind of gets the point across.

An anon who was in a serious relationship and got cheated on is going to react very differently to a story about someone still being in love with an an ex than an anon who's relationship ended because of moving for work, or growing apart, or hell even just losing interest in each other. There are so many different variables that dictate how we as individuals react to something as complex as human relationships and especially something as messy as "love."

To get so absolutely buttblasted and triggered like the anons above did using only their own experiences as a frame of reference and having no knowledge of anything I experienced is shortsighted as fuck. Clearly they've been really hurt by someone and chose to deal with it in their own way, so that's their call. But to claim that their way is the only way is just straight retarded.

Synechdoche is blankets more than just loss of love, it branches into all forms of loss, the inevitability of your life and how the passing of time isn't necessarily something we can control and the film just does an amazing job of making you feel insignificant in the grander scheme of things. A lot of films tend to "paint a portrait" in very vibrant colors so when you finish it you tend to have some good vibes or a feeling of understanding. Synechdoche's color palette comes from all the harsh realities of life and doesn't try to tell you a sweet lie but rather a truth of life. Time passes on, you grow old, your life and the people you love may not go the ways you want them to.

Sounds like you're the one assblasted responding to ever post and talking about "love" while making gay little nonsensical rap song comparisons to real life situations

Cry more bitch boy, I can see why she left you

Not a single tear was shed.

Brother was a dumbass who couldn't suck it up and deal with the aunt being a bitch. Also waited too long to get the money.

Holy shit. JUST saw this movie.

This was more trippy than Doctor Strange but why should I give a fuck about the girl? She was a bitch.

Sometimes I think that being a sociopath is supposed to be bad, but after reading through this thread and seeing the misery that people go through, I'm glad I'm incapable of loving anyone besides myself.

Bear in mind that Synecdoche was originally supposed to be a horror film about things that an adult actually finds scary, like the loss of loved ones, being ill, losing identity, etc.

Not heartbreaking, director is just a depressed fucked with a depressive worldview

>>79414847

Not heartbreaking, they were both miserable in the "present".

>>79425183

Not heartbreaking, the guy just had a depression.

>>79425334
This was just hot

>>79423567
Now this is heartbreaking, they had a good thing going but it was cut too short.

Jokes on all of you. I just never had anyone to love, that way I've had nobody to lose.

Eternal Sunshine isn't nearly as heartbreaking as you think. Rewatch it and pay close attention. Everything that happened that made their relationship fail was 100% Jim Carrey's fault because if you look at their relationship from a linear perspective, he just starts being an asshole to Kate Winslet for no reason at all and it drives her away from him.

This movie was depressing as fuck, but it wasn't heartbreaking. In fact, it was too depressing. There was no subtlety to it. I love Kaufman, but this was just him masturbating for 2+ hours. He's a great writer, but he needs the editing of a good director to cut through the fat and find the good story underneath.

Anyone who praises Grave of the Fireflies doesn't understand anything about proper filmmaking.

>tfw recently got back together with my ex yet again

I'm actually really happy about it, but ESotSM really nails it on the head. Love is complicated, and we jump back in sometimes even when we know we shouldn't.

I know how it feels man

Went through a serious break up a year ago, it took some time and I had similar instances of reconnecting with her only to have her pull away again for one reason or another.

What others are saying is completely right. There is no reason to entertain any "hints" or "clues" about wanting to get back together. The best thing to do is to forget about her.

My ex still messages me every few months - last time was on New Years Eve - she knows the best days to fuck with me. She acts all sweet and excited to talk to me but if it were me deciding to initiate conversation she'd always be "busy" or half there

It's over, not worth it, and anything that comes is just a shadow of what the relationship once was.

I'm alone this Valentines Day but it feels so much better than being stressed chasing after someone who once felt they loved me.

But yes, I'd do it all over again too. I don't regret those 3 years at all

I can't decide if this was meant to show that her kids (and her husband by extension) were always going to be different from their mother, or that the Japs are just god damn weird.

Cried either way because of how dedicated she was as a mother despite so much heartache.
