Definately Memento. It is the only Nolan movie which made it into my personal top 5 best movies ever.

It is probably the way it was writen, the whole backwards story is amazing and he created a twist ending, which is at the beginning of the story! Amazing.
I have explained more of this in an other topic, but I can't find it at the moment.
David emerges from the store slowly. He braces himself against a parked car and then keeps on walking in a nightmarish daze.

WE PULL BACK as David blends in with dozens and dozens of ordinary people, walking on an ordinary street, in an ordinary city.

Here's my top Nolan films:
1. Memento
2. Batman Begins
3. Prestige
4. Insomnia
5. The Dark Knight

All are great films, but I thought TDK had a couple of things I did not agree with Chris's work. Either way, it's still a great film.
I have not watched The Following though... :oops:

I have Following on DVD, and I just listened the commentary. Very interesting.
