Memento (2000) was first recommended by...

Description

Memento is that DVD that I am always willing to watch again whenever I encounter a friend who hasn't seen it yet. One of the reasons I can enjoy it over and over is that I seem to have some sort of memory loss problem so I can never remember what comes next and it's always new to me no matter how many times I've seen it before.

Description

Classic thriller from Christopher Nolan (director of the Dark Knight). The story runs in reverse from end to beginning. Highly intense and suspensful.

there are very few movies that can really capture my attention because if it doesn't make me think hard about it for days afterward, it isn't worth it. memento is one movie that is still all tangled up inside my head.

You can't watch this one just once. It's more amazing every time I see it.

I love how the filmmakers force the viewer to encounter the same problems as the main character. He cannot remember what happened ten minutes ago and the audience has no idea what happened ten minutes ago (timeline-wise). Plus the audience is forced to remember what happened at the beginning of a scene in order to put it together with the end of the next scene they are about to watch.

It creates an effect of serious time confusion, which I guess is what Guy Pearce was dealing with.
