This song is used perfectly in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. The juxtaposition of the frantic, desperate longing from Joel Barish (Carrey) trying to preserve the memory of his lost love with the gleeful, innocent abandon of Stan & Mary (Ruffalo & Dunst) is accompanied perfectly by the tone of this track. The shot of Joel throwing his hands in the air screaming followed by the young lovers dancing half naked in bed is just heightened wonderfully because this track just works at this point in the movie. Great choice on Gondry's part.
