“To be able to forget means sanity.”― Jack London
Our objective in designing the title sequence of 'Memento' was to illustrate Lenny's short-term memory struggles. We chose betta fish, echoing the goldfish memory myth set among submerged Polaroids. These Polaroids, with typography like tattoos on the fish, foreshadow Lenny's trauma. The sequence juxtaposes the advanced timelines in the Polaroids against the real-time fish, mirroring the film's dual timelines that converge at the climax.
