7) Memento (2000)
Christopher Nolan’s Memento tells the story of Leonard, a man with short-term memory loss trying to find his wife’s killer. The movie’s narrative is split into two timelines: one moving forward and one backward, converging at the climax. The backward sequence forces viewers to piece together events as Leonard experiences them, which mirrors his inability to retain memories. The film’s brilliance lies in its ability to make the audience experience Leonard’s disorientation, and it demands close attention to avoid getting lost in its structure.
