Christopher Nolan's Memento is the most confusing film I have seen. I needed to look at a video on YouTube of Nolan explaining it, and even then I didn't get everything.

In terms of reworking time, he uses two different times simultaneously that will reunite at the end of the movie. The part in color goes counter clockwise, so every time there is a new scene in color, it goes even more in the past. There is simultaneously a part in black and white. Those scenes are clockwise, they go more and more in the future, like most films. 
At the start of the film, the black and white scenes are before Leonard gets attacked and his wife raped and murdered, so he had not had a memory problem. He was on a case with Sammy, who had himself that memory issue.

At the end of the movie, the black and white scenes reunite with the colored scenes.

In terms of reworking space, at one point we see Sammy in a chair looking lost in the middle of a hospital, and for a very short moment, we see Leonard in that same chair, we can assume that it's a metaphor for them being in the same situation. Also, in the first scene, Leonard kills Teddy in the same exact location he leaves Teddy in the last scene.

This film is very different to any film we watched in these subjects. It is different in terms of having two stories told simultaneously rotating between one scene and another, at two different times. It is a very innovating concept to have so many connections and yet so few answers at the same time, it was a very different type of movie compared to the ones we saw before. I enjoyed it.]]> 2022-11-07 17:34:42 UTC https://padlet.com/tgrandet01_2/mj29qp160n5ocalk/wish/2373538036
