A memorable film

Rating: 9/10 (20 February 2007)

Yes this is a memorable film!What Film?Oh yes I remember :Memento.There are 606 "user comments" at the time of writing this.What time?17.15hrs G.M.T..I have just written it down,no I have tattooed it,I think.I couldn't remember seeing in the 606 comments what I am going to write (which is in the future,so i can't forget what is in the future;but I can possibly forget what I want to write).Anyway,as far as I remember :all the "flashbacks" and indeed the whole movie is from Lenny's point of view.However,notwithstanding the twist at the end about his wife's possible medical condition(provoked by Teddy's comments),it seems to me to be probably impossible (rather than possibly improbable)that the scenes in which there is vital interaction between Sammy and his wife (if they indeed existed)could not have been in Lenny's memory :because he wasn't there. He,nor the police,nor the ambulance-men,could have known that Sammy's wife had caused Sammy to overdose her;the autopsy would have shown an overdose of medication,but no-one could/would have known that Sammy's wife had kept re-winding her watch to 3 o'clock to get her jab;and Sammy would not have remembered,because he had no memory .The point is,if I remember correctly,that this is a really memorable film :the viewer is "bounced" and "conned" so memorably that.. I've forgotten what I wanted to write..and I've forgotten to tattoo it...I hope I remember to press the "Submit" button below before I forget.
