Plot summary

Man wakes up confused and desolate on park bench. His memory gone. Everything, wiped. A shell. He moves on with life. meets people. gets married has a child, becomes a college professor. How is this possible. Inside the shell, was residual. What was left of him, was language. Memory. Exclusive to languages. Hundreds of them. As it moves along, stranger, who looks confused but worse than our character arrives. Leaves clues to the past. Enticed, Doe moves forward. Without going into details, the film becomes a whodunit type movie. With of course the obvious questions and answers of who, how, why, when all being answered toward the end of the movie. May sound simple in this synopsis, but i assure you, it is fun getting there. The path is diversely simple, almost too much so, characters sparsely developed, thou Doe is fleshed out somewhat. Overall the acting of non essential was so so. If you grasp it, wipe your mind of notions, or past movies, you will enjoy the ride. I was riveted. Upon reflection i came to these conclusions. But when movie ended, I could only say, Wow. like i had just remembered my whole life. Kidding. It was a great ending. I enjoyed it, for the most part. Give this director an A for his accomplishments, the writer as well. Writer needs to write more. i liked it. The actor in this was completely believable. No awards, just he was cast perfectly. I enjoyed this film enough to recommend for others, hence why i am here. Watch this movie. Dont be distracted, or you wont care. LoL, such is life. Two thumbs up.
