Memento



This film has one of the most unique presentation methods that I have ever seen. The story is told backwards and time runs differently in the black and white scenes than in the color scenes. The editing  was brilliant. It is very masterful how the different clips of the story are woven together so that even though the story is told out of order, the audience is still able to understand and feel connected to the story. The way the story is told puts the audience into a situation similar to that of the main character with his memory problem, which is a great storytelling technique that helps the audience connect to the character. It was a brilliantly made film.
