Have you ever seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind?
It's a story about a man and woman who fall in love. Both people are damaged & despite not knowing exactly how to deal with the others jealousy they go for it. They love, they fight. Head over heels. Head over hate.
Then one day the woman chooses to forget him, to which he in turn decides the only way to make that painful reality go away is to forget her too....
But then in the process of forcing her out of his mind he realises it was better to have loved and lost her than to not remember her at all. He desperately tries to hide her in parts of his memories that she never existed, spilling over the line between memory & reality. In the last few seconds they have together, knowing she'll be gone soon, knowing they can't escape, he tells her how he was sorry that he didnt try harder. That he loved her... and that she would always be his One.
When he wakes up he has no recollection of her & becomes frustrated at the fact there is blatantly something missing in his life but he cant remember what.
Although the character definitely applies to me as far as personality & attitude... You will always be my Clementine. The One I wanted so desperately to forget just to realise i would hide you anywhere in my memory if it meant never forgetting you....
It's a painful love story but truly beautiful.
& It always reminds me so much of Us.............
