Trivia[]

  • Christopher Nolan once edited the movie in chronological order to make sure it worked as a straight forward story.
  • The screenplay for "Memento" was based on a short story written by Christopher Nolan's brother, Jonathan Nolan, titled "Memento Mori."
  • The film has two alternate endings. They both add to the ambiguity surrounding the character's motivations and the nature of memory.
