ROCKLAND — The Strand Theatre’s 2023 film series “100 Years of Movies” presents Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) on Sunday, May 28, at 2 p.m. The theme for May’s films is “It’s All in Your Head.” 

After a painful breakup, Clementine (Kate Winslet) undergoes a procedure to erase memories of her former boyfriend Joel (Jim Carrey) from her mind. When Joel discovers that Clementine is going to extremes to forget their relationship, he undergoes the same procedure and slowly begins to forget the woman that he loved.

Directed by former music video director Michel Gondry, the visually arresting film explores the intricacy of relationships and the pain of loss.

“100 Years of Movies” is part of the Strand Theatre’s yearlong celebration of its 100th anniversary in 2023. Films from every decade the theater has been in operation will be screened, presented with monthly themes. The films were selected to represent the filmmaking style and perspectives of their time; in addition to well-known works, the titles will include lesser-known, high quality releases that have been overlooked as well as films from underrepresented directors. The films were curated by Alicia Malone, a host on Turner Classic Movies (TCM), and Strand House Manager Liz McLeod. Each film will be introduced by Malone or McLeod, or a special guest presenter.

This film is rated R.

Tickets are $8/General Admission, $7/Strand Members, and will be available at the box office 30 minutes prior to show time.
