A great movie! The structure of the story is the work of a genius.

Rating: 9/10 (24 May 2003)

Memento is the story of Leonard Shelby, who has lost his short time memory after an incident in which his wife got killed. He lives 5 minutes at a time, forgetting everything that has happened before. Through the narrative structure of the movie we actually come to share the handicap of Leonard: we never know what has happened before the present scene.
We get to know the story through fragments of a few minutes. The ones in color are backward in time, the ones in black and white start from the past and move forward. In the end the two parts of the story join, giving a complete picture. For all those that have enjoyed "The Killing" or "Pulp Fiction" for the way the story is revealed: Memento is even better in that!
