Lots and lots and lots of stuff over on the main class blog to look at in reference to Memento. Don't miss the interviews with Nolan and his discussion of the film's genesis alongside his brother's short story, "Memento Mori." Don't forget to read the short story, as well.
I've also written up a bit on the motif of the "memento mori" since memory/death are central to both brother's narratives.
I've also posted on well known genre "film noir," since Memento clearly riffs on its narrative conventions, fatalism and handling of character.
Hope you are thinking about that first paper! See you next week.
