I found his move very interesting in the way that it shows how improtant it is to trust some people whose ideas may seem somehow extraordinary. To trust people who want to push things forward that we are used to and don’t have any motivation to change them. That scene when awakened Leonard started to fight for his own rights and this doctor said that I would be better if they stopped giving him this l-dopa medicine – I was steamed! How could they want not to make a step forward? Even though it had it’s consequences – it was so valuable. I was deeply moved by this aspect of this movie.
