“Memento” is a movie with several Oscar nominations. It’s quite remarkable for a movie with production cost of only 5 million dollars. And its director is Christopher Nolan, a famous director who directed “Batman” serious, “Inception” and “Interstellar”.

This is so bad that during running, he forgot that whether he was chasing someone or being chased by someone. To him, life is many broken pieces. So, the director not only “cuts” the movie into many pieces but also use f
