The audience only can see what Leonard sees, until the next scene when they realize why everything just happened the way it did. John G. also killed her boyfriend, which is the driving force behind her helping Leonard. Nolan has crafted a story so simple and complex at the same time that when you think you know what's happened, you find out you weren't even close to what really happened. Granted, the year isn't even half over, but it will take a lot to knock this film off the No. 1 spot. The film is so different and mind-blowing that it is already, for those who've seen it, one of those films that you just can't forget.
Mysteries are some of the most memorable films ever made.
