...I probably should have made another thread for the documentary, sorry to divert...it just seemed to connect at the time ...but maybe not the best thing to have them in the same thread...

I was looking at the Wikipedia page for Memento and it has this graphic about the film's structure.
Spoiler: Also this is what it says about the portrayal of memory loss. Quote:

...so this is interesting because its more or less saying that the movie/characters are completely changed in watching it in real time...
https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comm...ith_scenes_in/ ...there must be a way of doing that, I’ll look for the cuts to see if they’re online... |

...if anyone has any ideas already, we can also start thinking about the next movie watch...so long as it’s something we can all access to watch, ‘classic’ can be stretched a bit as well...

I'm kind of loving these ones where you have to think about them, we're getting a lot of mileage out of Memento
I saw a list of mind bending movies and I haven't seen this one (not sure where to watch though)

...it really is so different to watch it in real time because it’s almost like it messes with our own memory when it’s diverting backwards and forwards and because of that, I’d forgotten some bits...

The first time you watch it, you probably won't understand what's happening, but then go find out what the plot is about and watch again from the perspective of knowing what's happening. Spoiler: But it's even far more complicated than that. First time I watched it, I didn't get, but was intrigued by it, then I looked it up online and read a great piece explaining the whole plot of the film, then I watched it again and realised it's a work of genius. It's sort of a cross between Sunset Boulevard and a very dark Wizard of Oz, which are favourite films of the guy who Directed it, David Lynch, he also directed Lost Highway. Lost Highway, Mulholland Drive and Inland Empire are called David Lynch's LA trilogy, although it's not a trilogy as such like Lord of the rings or The Godfather, they're different story's. I've seen Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive, I've not seen Inland Empire. It's a film that if you get it, it's a masterpiece, if you don't, you think what the hell was that rubbish all about? It ranks number 28 in the sight and sound critics poll of the greatest films ever made. It also ranked number 1 in a 2016 BBC culture poll, of the greatest films made since the year 2000. Maybe you've already seen it? If so give us your thoughts. If you've not seen it yet, but you do watch it, let me know what you think. I think you need to have total understanding of what's going on in the film to realise that what Lynch did with that film was genius. Lynch is a very difficult director for most people to understand.

I love David Lynch.
Not a movie, but Twin Peaks is one of my favourite shows.

Scent of a woman is another of my favourite movies.
An amazing performance by Pacino.

...Trainspotting as well is one that I haven’t seen before if it’s one that others would like to watch...
