This paper analyzes Michel Gondry’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) through the metaphor of the —a short, fragmented, often urgent message transmitted across distance. Just as a telegram condenses meaning while risking loss or distortion, the film’s characters attempt to send emotional “messages” across the erasure of memory. Using Lacanian psychoanalysis and memory studies, I argue that Joel and Clementine’s relationship functions as a series of delayed telegrams: imperfect, retrievable only in pieces, yet carrying existential weight.
