Summary

Special thanks once again to Andrew "The Commissioner" Mount, for having us do the 2001 Christopher Nolan movie, "Memento"... Starring Guy Pierce and Carrie-Anne Moss, Memento is an engaging, cerebral, well crafted thriller mystery with an ingenious plot device that plays with our sense of memory and time. We both highly recommend you see this movie before listening to the podcast, as the first time viewing experience of this movie is hard to beat, and it's an excellent film. If you can find it please give it a shot and then come back and see what we had to say about it. Thanks, Andrew, that was fun and intellectually stimulating! Learn more about your ad choices.

0:45.7

Right, it was adapted into a screen play by Christopher Nolan based on a short story that

0:51.2

his brother Jonathan Nolan wrote called Memento Mori that has you know from what I could tell I haven't read it's got a very similar

0:58.4

plot engine and structure now this is going to be a weird Commission podcast because we're going to spend a few minutes just talking about what we think of the movie as far as our opinion of it.

1:07.5

And then we're going to get into hardcore spoilers. Normally we just kind of mix a match because most of the shows we've seen, you know, I've been out for a long time

1:14.9

which this one has, but this also is a very niche movie.

1:17.8

It only made $40 million at the box office.

1:19.8

It was kind of a, not a cult film, but more of an an art house film it didn't get a huge

1:24.0

release and also this movie you know I'm a spoiler agnostic person but this is one of the

1:32.4
