Memento (2001)
Leonard Shelby is tracking down the man who raped and murdered his wife. The difficulty of locating his wife's killer, however, is compounded by the fact that he suffers from a rare, untreatable form of short-term memory loss. Although he can recall details of life before his accident, Leonard cannot remember what happened fifteen minutes ago, where he's going, or why.

Mememo, you may say, bought Christopher Nolan truly into the spotlight and soon he was on an A list set directing the likes of Pacino and Robin Williams in a few years. This film about a man who suffers from short term memory loss is a very good work by a young talent about to explode. The script is good and the acting from Guy Pierce is very fitting into the theme and approach. The inverse mode of showing things is unique and although now, used umpteenth of times it seems stale, it was revolutionary when the film came out. This is a great example of an independent film. Be sure to watch it and you will see the pattern of Nolan's work.
You will love it or hate it, personally it's my best film of all time. Ignoring the basics such as acting and production which are faultless the story and how it's portrayed onto screen is just awesome!!! I love how clever this film is and how it portrays just how fragile the human psyche and powerful the human drive is....
The characters are great, the direction is Dynamic, the script has a great idea. To be watched if you have a chance to do so. For sure, you Will remember it.
