    Remember

    Reviewed by

    I was totally involved with this movie thanks to all of its many finely structured elements, such as the masterful acting of both Christopher Plummer and Martin Landau deserving Academy Awards. Atom Egoyan's flawless direction, the sensitive and clever script by Benjamin August, etc. It is a psychological thriller with strong human and meaningful aspects -- and with its main character developing Alzheimer's, 'Remember' obviously deals with memory -- individual and collective, such as in relation to the Holocaust and its perpetrators. Indeed, there may really have been no limits to some perverse Nazi leaders ingenuity in succeeding to hide their true identity, after the war, and relocate as ‘good, average citizens’, in the States or elsewhere. As I left the theatre, I was thinking about the several very suspenseful moments I had watched, and I thought this is a movie the great Alfred Hitchcock would have been proud to direct. I was also musing about the occasional piano pieces I had heard: they could be revealing as to the shattering twist that occurs at the very end, one of the strongest I have ever watched. It should not be divulged -- at any cost!
