Momento
Out of all the movies we watched so far Momento is definitely my favorite one. My favorite thing about this movie is the fact that it is confusing, and to others this might frustrate them. I enjoy it because it keeps my attention the whole time, really making you think about what is going on. If a movie doesn't make you think, then it is simply not worth your time. It was a great movie that was shot very well and complex. The debate in class is whether or not he actually lost his memory or not. To me I think that he rather chooses not to remember things. After he killed his wife he did not want to believe what he had done, so he chose to block it out, erasing it completely from his mind, and replacing it with someone else's story. He is not a killer to me, I think he is naive and confused about the whole entire situation. I believe that he is so guilty in what he did that he simply chooses to block out the rest of his life so he doesn't have to put up with any guilty conscience or repercussions. This was my favorite movie so far and I hope to watch others that are complex like this one.
