Hey bloggers!
Este post vem em sequência de um filme que já vi a quase uma semana na aula de psicologia e que gostei bastante. Chama-se Memento e foi aclamado pela crítica nacional e internacional como um dos melhores filmes do ano de 2001. « Memento surpreendeu tudo e todos pelo seu argumento brilhante e original. Realizado por Christopher Nolan, o filme leva-nos a reconstruir o vertiginoso quebra cabeças de Leonard Shelby na sua incessante busca pela verdade.
Leonard tem como único objectivo apanhar e punir o homem que violou e matou a sua mulher, mas está limitado por uma estranha incapacidade de formar memórias recentes devido ao violento ataque que sofreu naquele momento. Alguém que tenha conhecido, ou qualquer coisa que tenha feito depois, simplesmente desaparece da sua memória. Mas a isso não o impede de continuar, utilizando o seu próprio corpo como um bloco de notas onde várias tatuagens o ajudam a relembrar as várias peças do puzzle que vai reconstruindo. Quem são os seus amigos? Quem são os seus inimigos? Qual é a verdade? »
Aconselho-vos a vê-lo visto ser um filme muito interessante. Por agora deixo-vos algumas das suas frases mais marcantes, na minha humilde opinião, juntamente com algumas imagens do filme. Deixo-vos também com o link do trailer do filme caso queiram ter um "cheirinho" do que se passa no filme. Para terminar uma pequena definição da palavra Memento:
(latim memento, lembra-te)
1. Oração eclesiástica que principia por aquela palavra.
2. Livro de lembranças, agenda onde se anota o que se quer recordar.
3. Obra em que estão resumidas as partes essenciais dum assunto, duma ciência.
Natalie: What's the last thing that you do remember?
Leonard Shelby: My wife...
Natalie: That's sweet.
Leonard Shelby: ...dying.
Leonard Shelby: I don't even know how long she's been gone. It's like I've woken up in bed and she's not here... because she's gone to the bathroom or something. But somehow, I know she's never gonna come back to bed. If I could just... reach over and touch... her side of the bed, I would know that it was cold, but I can't. I know I can't have her back... but I don't want to wake up in the morning, thinking she's still here. I lie here not knowing... how long I've been alone. So how... how can I heal? How am I supposed to heal if I can't... feel time?
Leonard Shelby: Memory can change the shape of a room; it can change the color of a car. And memories can be distorted. They're just an interpretation, they're not a record, and they're irrelevant if you have the facts.
Leonard Shelby: Probably burned truck loads of your stuff before. I can’t remember to forget you.
Natalie: Tell me about her again.
Leonard Shelby: Why?
Natalie: Because you like to remember her.
Leonard Shelby: She was beautiful. To me, she was perfect.
Natalie: No, don't just recite the words. Close your eyes... and remember her.
Leonard Shelby: You can just feel the details. The bits and pieces you never bothered to put into words. And you can feel these extreme moments... even if you don't want to. You put these together, and you get the feel of a person. Enough to know how much you miss them... and how much you hate the person who took them away.
Natalie: Because you like to remember her.
Leonard Shelby: She was beautiful. To me, she was perfect.
Natalie: No, don't just recite the words. Close your eyes... and remember her.
Leonard Shelby: You can just feel the details. The bits and pieces you never bothered to put into words. And you can feel these extreme moments... even if you don't want to. You put these together, and you get the feel of a person. Enough to know how much you miss them... and how much you hate the person who took them away.
Leonard Shelby: It's just an anonymous room. There's nothing in the drawers. But you look anyway. Nothing except the Gideon bible, which I, of course, read religiously.
Leonard Shelby: We all lie to ourselves to be happy.
Leonard Shelby: When I looked into his eyes I thought I saw recognition. Now I know. You fake it. If you think you're supposed to recognize somebody you, you just pretend. You bluff it to get a pat on the head from the doctors. You bluff it to seem less like a freak.
Leonard Shelby: I have to believe in a world outside my own mind. I have to believe that my actions still have meaning, even if I can't remember them. I have to believe that when my eyes are closed, the world's still there. Do I believe the world's still there? Is it still out there?... Yeah. We all need mirrors to remind ourselves who we are. I'm no different.
Leonard Shelby: I'm not a killer. I'm just someone who wanted to make things right. Can't I just let myself forget what you've told me? Can't I just let myself forget what you've made me do. You think I just want another puzzle to solve? Another John G. to look for? You're John G. So you can be my John G... Will I lie to myself to be happy? In your case Teddy... yes I will.
