Did anyone else watch the making of Memento?

The famous 2000 film that put Christopher Nolan on the map tells the story of a man on the hunt for the man he thinks killed his wife.

Did anyone else watch the making of Memento?

I bought the two disc special edition and it has a making of Memento on it. Anyone else see it? It's very interesting.

I think it's called Anatomy of a Scene, a little documentary of Memento by IFC.

Yeah it's a really good documentry. Tells you how they did the first scene in reverse without making it look grainy, very clever technique by Wally Phister. I was also impressed with some of the interviews with Todd, Nolan and the cast. The there is also a really good bonus feature where Elvis Mitchell interviews Nolan (which is one of the best Nolan interviews I have seen) where he also talk a bit about Following and how he got the idea of Memento.

Chris Nolan is, without a doubt, a pure genius.

Here is the whole thing on Amazon:
Memento (Widescreen Two-Disc Limited Edition) (2000) - $14.49

I'm buying this right now. Haha. :lol:

Very cheap for a Two-Disc. :D
I think I got mine for $11 cause the store was going out of business.

Very interesting stuff, it reveals a lot about how Nolan was able to capture such a difficult narrative sequence of events.
As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
