Memento	comment	Memento is a 2000 neo-noir psychological thriller film written and directed by Christopher Nolan, and his first larger-scale production following his directorial debut Following.Leonard Shelby (Guy Pearce) has a problem: during a robbery in which his wife (Jorja Fox) is killed, he suffers a blow to the head. The injury gives him anterograde amnesia — which means his brain can no longer record new long-term memories. He can remember the last five to fifteen minutes, and he can remember his life from before the injury, but everything in-between eventually...disappears. His life now consists of a hunt for John G — the person who killed his wife.To find John G (and to simply function from day to day), Leonard employs a variety of reminders and notes to himself by way of Polaroids, tattoos, and other means both temporary and permanent. Of course, since he doesn't live in a perfect world, he comes across people who would love to help him find the killer — and take advantage of his condition in the process.The film employs a unique timeline in that you see most of the movie in backwards chronological order (with distinctive anchor points allowing you to follow each scene), while sub-plot scenes of Leonard in a hotel (shown in black-and-white) run in chronological order to anchor the rest of the film. (As such, the film ends in the chronological middle of the overall narrative.) This editing choice creates a mood and a storytelling method intended to match Lenny's condition.

This line of dialogue helps to explain the film's narrative structure to the audience as a means of representing Leonard's mental state. In a flashback, Leonard remembers his wife re-reading a dog-eared book that she has read so many times the cover has fallen off. He mocks her for it, observing that he always thought the pleasure of reading a book was in wanting to know what happened next. Of course, the film itself is based on the idea that the audience always knows what happened next and the pleasure is in finding out what happened beforehand.

But it's even sadder when you realize that at the end (which is the beginning of the movie) he killed the only person who had him in check. And because he doesn't remember a thing (assuming he doesn't tell himself he finally "succeeded" in some message), he will continue to seek revenge, killing we don't know how many people in the process and he won't even have Teddy to direct him towards unsavory types. Revenge for nothing, of course, since his wife didn't die in the attack at all, but was accidentally killed by Leonard, in the way he believes Sammy's wife died and even those responsible for that were already killed by Leonard a year before the film. Damn.

And: Inverted with "Don't believe his lies," in that instead of being a line that recontextualises parts of the story after it's spoken, it's a line that is known to the audience (and shown repeatedly) and clearly important to what's going on, but the line itself is completely recontextualised by what we learn why and when it was written. The movie makes it a point to show the words every time the protagonist alters his other notes in any way, but the reasonable assumption is there is something about Teddy that the movie is yet to show us. It turns out that the line hides a secret about Leonard, not about Teddy.

After suffering brain damage himself he realizes that Sammy was faking recognition, not the disability. He was trying to blend in and seem less helpless. Leonard himself is revealed to have developed this, and it's only made things worse. He's become an amnesiac serial killer by learning through repetition. He rewrites his own history to create an elusive quest for his wife's killer and repeating it over and over again to give himself purpose in life. The guy has in fact been dead for years and didn't kill her; Leonard himself did by accident.

Memento / int_8015df5d	comment	Reverse Whodunnit: The movie plays the hell out of this trope. We see who (supposedly) was the murderer and so does Lenny in the very first scene. However, the film goes in reverse, and then with him only remembering scenes in several minute intervals, as we see the outcome and learn the clues as he does while already being "spoiled" to the ending, because of it going in reverse. For the first half, the viewer is able to string together the various short bits of color and he is not, involving quite a bit of mental work, but we still know more than he does because we can remember it. However, at the halfway point, all hell breaks loose and the people we and Lenny learn to trust and not trust every few minutes may not be as they seem, especially Lenny himself.

Leonard mentions how facts like his pictures and their inscriptions are immutable, while memories can be distorted, even while he treats his own memories before "the incident" as ironclad and absolutely real. They're (probably) not. One of Leonard's tattoos is backwards and he speculates that it's for when he's found his wife's killer. He is, in fact, correct - the tattoo is readable only when he's looking at the killer, i.e., at himself in a mirror. A scene with a prostitute is a touching one, as it shows how Leonard is still devoted to his wife. It also demonstrates how adept at self-manipulation he is... Natalie telling Lenny he won't even remember it if he kills his wife's murderer. Natalie's name has the word "lie" right there in it, hinting that she's lying to Leonard.
