I first saw Memento (2000) when it came out on dvd. I didn't love it the first time but it has since grown on me and inspired me as a writer and a filmmaker. It wasn't solely the backwards narrative that makes this movie special, although it is a great exercise in keeping the audience guessing, but rather the old fashion movie making that makes it great. Christopher Nolan now is on the top 25 twice, but this is his masterpiece and I don't know if he will ever make a better movie. Not to mention a great lead performance by Guy Pearce.
