Memento

I watched memento today and I absolutely loved it. I thought it was really interesting how the film played around with different concepts, for example the whole film being backwards and giving the audience false ideas about who was a villain and who was a hero. when trying to recall a part of the film, i had difficulty placing it because I couldn't remember what came before and after and I couldn't decided whether to place it according to the story line or the actual film structure. I thought that the dizziness and confusion the film created in my own mind made me feel as if I were the one who had the short-term memory deficit. Additionally, I thought that showing the main characters memories (or what we the audience believe to be his memories) in black and white was a really good technique as it added some variety to the film.
The fact that the storyline was complex and kept you guessing right till the end made it all the more interesting but i think to really appreciate the genius of Memento, I'll have to watch it again :)
