Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet
I had actually never heard of it -- art house release? -- until it popped up on TCM a few weeks ago. Quirky and imaginative, if not perfect. I think it won or was nominated for an Oscar for Best Screenplay.

OK, got it. I need to watch that. Jessica Chastain was wonderful as Tammy Faye. I think she really set the record straight regarding Ms. Bakker's life, thereby giving some peace to her soul. It's clear that Chastain felt real affection for her character.
