A Response to Memento


Christopher Nolan does an excellent job with this film, in my opinion.
Memento is about a man, Leonard (a.k.a Lenny) who has a condition where he has no short memory. To keep track of everything, he constantly takes polaroids and makes notes to himself.


Lenny is trying to find and kill the man who raped and killed his wife. We see his interactions with people who he is close to, but sometimes they turn out to be people he can't trust. One excellent thing about this movie is the fact that the story is told backwards. That way, we're allowed to be forgetful with Lenny. We're not allowed to know more than he does until the end of the movie.
