Here, working with Human Nature director Michel Gondry, Kaufman wonders whether one person can be true to another, whatever obstacles pile up. On Valentine's Day 2004, Joel Barish (a wonderfully forlorn Jim Carrey) decides to skip work and--who knows why--take a train to Montauk on the frosty tip of Long Island.

...Love with a Girl,” Jack and Meg White are rendered as music-making Legos, a visual touch that is compelling in its own right, yet also accentuates the music.
