There are great films and then there are original films.

Rating: 9/10 (4 May 2020)

Of all the great films I've seen in my life, some of them stand out as 'the originals'. Like Woody Allen's 'Take the Money and Run' or Terry Gilliam's 'Brazil'. These films are not just great examples in the history of cinema but also simply as gems that open our eyes to new conceptions and languages. It seems to me they are so pure that they can not be copied not even by their very own creators. Memento is surely striking by its famous montage but it is also a revolt against the usual, well-constructed movie form. Nolan here actually goes to the end and he manages to change the way we see films.
