Episode 039: Do You Remember the Last Time We Talked About This Film? Memento (2000)
Join Alex in an renewed exploration of the memory issues and portrayal Memento (2000)! We first talked about this film all the way back in July 2019, in Episode 000. In this episode, Alex dives a little deeper into the portrayal of anterograde amnesia and the ultimate outcome of the story, including the speculation about which character is telling the truth. This is truly a wonderful film that does a pretty decent job at exploring how anterograde amnesia might work in the wild. And let’s not forget Christopher Nolan’s wonderful storytelling technique of a backwards narrative!
