Memento ~ The Movie  

Memento - one of the best films of 2000 - was inspired by a short story by Jonathan Nolan, the brother of the film's director Christopher Nolan. The short story, Memento Mori, became Memento and stars Guy Pearce as a former insurance fraud investigator (Leonard Shelby), who is hunting for the man who he believes raped and killed his wife during a burglary.
Unfortunately for Leonard, he now has anterograde amnesia, which he contracted from severe head trauma during the attack on his wife. This renders his brain unable to store new memories. To cope with his condition, he maintains a system of notes, photographs, and tattoos to record information about himself and others, including his wife's killer.
He is helped in his investigations by Teddy (Joe Pantoliano) and Natalie (Carrie-Anne Moss), neither of whom he can truly trust.
