A Wonderful Little Jigsaw Puzzle

Christopher Nolan shares with you a story about Leonard Shelby, a man who gained a short-term memory loss condition after is wife was raped and murdered. Even though Lenny can't make new memories, he uses his old ones before the death of his wife, to find the man who did this to him.
An absolutely incredible move from Nolan. Thrillers/Mysteries never turn out the way they should these days. Movies like Memento and Seven are completely unpredictable and enthrall every bit, while todays flicks are just a quick scare that is easily forgotten.
Though the movie works backwards in a confusing motion, and may have to be viewed a number of times in order to understand the plot and everything behind the scenes, Memento is one of the best recent thrillers out there.
By The Way, That Dvd menu, drove me crazy.
