Memento
‘Memento’ was written by Christopher Nolan and unfortunately for the director, this movie won’t be the only entry of his in this list.
The movie sees Leonard (Guy Pearce) try to track down his wife’s (Carrie-Anne Moss) killer, but is thrown by his rare form of memory loss, leading to audience members questioning what is real, and what isn’t.
Even so, Nolan reassured viewers that it didn’t matter if they lost the plot (literally).
In an interview, he said: “Don't try to understand it, just feel it. I think it's really about mystery ... it should be about mystery. You don't want to understand the entire story right at the beginning. Otherwise, there's nothing to unfold."
