Topic > Analysis of the Eternal Light of the Spotless Mind

In doing the right thing for the right reason there are moral obligations. There are motivations for what people do. The films “The Black Mirror” and “The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” both ultimately seemed to do the right thing for the right reason. In both films the trust between people has been broken, and in both films the Utilitarian would likely feel that the consequences were morally right. In Black Mirror, a family was torn apart, people were hurt, but eventually the truth came out. In The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind relationships were erased, but in the end the consequences were right regardless of whether the actions committed were for the good or not
