@nomi Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind maybe?

@JamesHMcLaren oooh. Good catch! It's not the ragged tragedy of death, but something more bittersweet. But still with an unrecoverable loss, so the judges say "yes"

@nomi I can’t think of any others though, so I believe you’re correct.

@JamesHMcLaren oh man, we missed a big one. Million Dollar Baby
