Only movie with a surprise beginning!

Rating: 10/10 (27 June 2002)

wow.... where do I begin? One of the greatest flicks I've ever seen. Lenny, as he liked to be called, is a man suffering from short term memory loss and is trying to find his wife's killer. The movie itself runs backwards. The opening parts of the movie is how you would normally see a movie end. You'll see about 4-5 minutes of a flashback, then the movie cuts to a side story of Lenny talking to someone on the phone about a man with the same condition as him named Sammy Jankis. Then it will go back to another flashback that happens right before the previous flashback and ends where the previous flashback began. Sound confusing? Well if you go into the movie knowing it goes backwards it's really easy to follow. You'll like the surprise beginning.
