Released in 2000, this mind-bending film follows the story of Leonard Shelby, played by the talented Guy Pearce, who suffers from short-term memory loss and navigates a non-linear narrative in his quest for revenge. As Bob revisits this film after 15 years and Brad experiences it for the first time, they delve into Nolan's direction and the thought-provoking themes explored throughout the story.
