Movie No. 44 (2016): REMEMBER

Remember (2015)
Director: Atom Egoyan
Cast: Christopher Plummer, Martin Landau, Bruno Ganz

The plot is interesting. An Auschwitz survivor, now living in America, goes cross country on a mission to find the Nazi who killed his family. The problem is he has dementia. With him in tow is a letter written for him by a fellow survivor which reminds him of his mission and about the fact that his wife is already dead. Another complication is the fact that there are four persons who bear the same name and age as the Nazi he's looking for.

Watching the movie is like watching a minor Hitchcock film on the basis of the plot, execution, and even the musical score. It really brings thrill and suspense. The finale is unforgettable.

Rating: 3.5/4.0

Date seen: July 24, 2016
