This short film (70 minutes) by Christopher Nolan is full of twists. Its more like one big twist. A cerebral movie like his other ones. It starts with someone following other people for fun and then the story unravels. Break-ins, murders, blackmail all feature here with less than half a dozen people involved in all the action. There seem to be a few loops ala memento and inception, so watch out, and enjoy.

Wake Up Sid (2009) (6/10)
A no-nonsense movie about growing up, companionship and may be maturity, or recognition of it. Doesn't glorify the typical tenets of today's society and lets its protagonists go with the flow. Everyone is quietly confident. Mistakes are made, but well, mistakes happen. Though the movie s about two people, they do not dominate it and so it is very natural and nice to watch. Finding the groove takes time, but one has to take deliberate steps towards it and be passionate about *something*. Excellent acting.
