In class we watched the starting to the film memento. The film is mix up of different times and the change in times when certain events happen. The film starts off going backwards. at first it was unclear to see this. Yet the film starts with a photo and in backwards motion the picture slowly fades until there is nothing there. Then everything goes into reverse until the film starts over again. The use of the techniques, the clever rewind motion is one that confuses and brings the audience in straight away into the film. The use of this makes the watcher want to see more and watch on with suspense. The clever use of the camera angle and shots to achieve this action is sticking for me as the audience to watch. For myself to see I just wanted to watch on and see what happened next. Therefore the film makers achieved what they set out to do.
