Memento

After watching Memento, It is now on my list of top ten movies of all time. This film stands out simply because of its never seen before way of beginning a film with the ending.( such as in the film Double Indemnity) Then the film brought the information of two story's involving the two main characters Leonard and Teddy and gave the viewers pieces of information to solve the case. I think this film was supposed to be left unsolved in a way because of Leonard's unique condition. Teddy ends up telling Leonard the truth, but the viewers have to question Teddy's honesty because of his motives in the past leading up to his revealing unanswered questions in Leonard's mind. In the end, I thought the lesson that the viewers were supposed to get out of it was that you should always try and find healthy motivation to help guide you through life.
