“Reminiscence” (2021) is a science fiction thriller written and directed by Lisa Joy, co-creator of Westworld. The film stars Hugh Jackman, Rebecca Ferguson, and Thandiwe Newton in a futuristic neo-noir setting.
The story is set in a near-future world where climate change has caused coastal cities to be flooded, and society has become obsessed with reliving the past. Hugh Jackman plays Nick Bannister, a private investigator who specializes in helping clients access lost memories through a machine that allows them to relive moments from their past.
Nickโs life takes a turn when he meets a mysterious woman named Mae (Rebecca Ferguson) and becomes romantically involved with her. When Mae suddenly disappears, Nick embarks on a dangerous quest to uncover the truth about her past and her intentions. As he dives deeper into her memories, he uncovers a web of crime, corruption, and conspiracy that blurs the line between reality and illusion.
“Reminiscence” combines elements of mystery, romance, and sci-fi, with a visually striking depiction of a dystopian future. The film explores themes of memory, obsession, and the impact of the past on the present, drawing comparisons to classic noir films with a futuristic twist.
