Memento 2000
This is why Memento is a truly unique experience.
You will find yourself formulating theories, forgetting old ones as new scenes pass and, just like Lenny, you may get lost in the facts before the next scene is flung upon you.
Although the film is in reverse, there is a (relatively) normal structure which allows you to still feel the weight of new information.
But here's the deal, you do have a short term memory and Nolan knows this.

Anora 2024
Anora is hilarious. It looks a bit like a commercial for a travel agent and has a bunch of Armenians desperately failing to fulfill their orders in a Home Alone type slapstick disaster. How it merges the comedic aspects with its dramatic flourishes is inspired and allows for some great theatrics. The only way the film doesn't satisfy is in the underlying themes which feel unexplored in favour of a lighter tone. There are hints at a deeper message even…
