I agree. Could we imagine Memento being made today?


Memento. That one hit me right in the gut on a first viewing. Why don't we have more movies like this today? It's sad.


Also Memento was a $9 million dollar movie, even in 2000 that wasn't a lot of money.

What we're missing these days are what myself and my buddy, who's a film buff and writer, are the 10-30 million dollar films. Well written, competent director and director of photography, a reasonable cast of most likely newbies but they can act, and a decent plot/story....Memento, Donnie Darko, The Hurt Locker. Jeez the Hurt Locker was just a 15 million dollar movie, but it's pretty decent (I've watched it five times).
