Anyway, it&#8217;s a flick called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B0000640SA\/djwudicom-20\" title=\"Amazon: Memento\">Memento<\/a>, and sounds just fascinating. Rather than butcher the description by doing it myself, I&#8217;ll just give you the brief summary from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.corona.bc.ca\/films\/mainFramed.html\" title=\"Coming Attractions\">Coming Attractions<\/a>&#8216; page about the movie:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n  After suffering trauma, a man named Leonard now has a rare form of amnesia, preventing him from remembering anything in his short term memory. He forgets the start of the conversation he&#8217;ll have with you, or where he was going, or whom he&#8217;s spoken with. To jolt his memory, Leonard writes down fragments of his life on scraps of paper, so when he reads them again he&#8217;ll remember. He even goes as far as to write the important things he needs to remember on his body. When Leonard awoke this morning he read his chest: <em>John G Raped And Murdered My Wife.<\/em> Now Leonard knows what he was doing yesterday. But when your mind forgets who you can trust and who is your enemy, how can you ever hope to solve a mystery?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>For more information, and an absolute slew of not just good, but outstanding reviews, check out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.corona.bc.ca\/films\/details\/memento.html\" title=\"Coming Attractions: Memento (404'd as of 6\/10\/2005)\">this page<\/a>, or if you&#8217;ve got the bandwidth to handle it, check out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/trailers\/independent\/memento.html\" title=\"Apple: Memento trailer (404'd as of 6\/10\/2005)\">the trailer<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When your mind forgets who you can trust and who is your enemy, how can you ever hope to solve a mystery?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2037],"tags":[23,1873],"class_list":["post-76","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-tv-and-films","tag-film","tag-memento"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=76"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=76"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=76"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=76"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
