where is eternal sunshine of the spotless mind set
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Shy, soft-spoken Joel Barish and unrestrained free-spirit Clementine Kruczynski begin a relationship on a Long Island Rail Road train from Montauk, New York to Rockville Centre. They are immediately drawn to each other, despite their contrasting personalities, as they both felt the need to travel to Montauk that day. Although they do not remember it, Joel and Clementine are, in fact, former lovers, now separated after spending two years together. After a fight, Clementine had hired the New York City firm Lacuna, Inc. to erase all of her memories of their relationship. Upon discovering this from his friends Rob and Carrie, Joel was devastated and decided to undergo the procedure himself, a process that takes place while he sleeps.
