Continuing 2020’s “Year of Sci-Fi” theme, this year’s Valentine’s Day late-night feature is this brilliant, beautiful, imaginative, and, yes, romantic film from Michel Gondry. A man (Carrey) pays for a service to erase his ex-girlfriend (Winslet) from his memory – but he regrets his decision and races against his own mind to try and save his feelings for her.
