What are some of your favourite films/books/tv shows with a nonlinear narrative?

I can't think of any, but though I don't mind this sort of thing at all, I think if I had to make a choice I'd prefer events be portrayed in chronological order.

Pulp Fiction (loved this movie!). I know there's more, but I'm horrible at remembering books and movies. I watched this recently, so it's still fresh.

Memento and Kill Bill immediately come to mind.

The Bible.

Memento was good. Quentin Tarantino uses this idea effectively. No other's spring to mind right now.

Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson (semi-linear with 2-3 periods of time braided)
"Lost" (tv series -- mostly flashbacks, but also flash-fowards)
"Memento" is great, of course ... it's hard to think of something as non-linear as that
"Atonement" was pretty good
Really tons of stuff have flashbacks... even videos games...
Some of these have unreliable narrators too (especially Memento)... that's also good and trendy.

I hate this kind of thing. A story should follow chronologically. Anything else is too hard to follow.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Pulp Fiction

Sounds pretty confusing.....sounds like a Pavlov technique.

> Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

D'oh! How could I forget Eternal Sunshine? I LOVE that movie!

erm................ The Green Mile?

I'm not sure, I don't think I am able to sit through any of those. I need a few more examples.

Ohhhh, I see. I'm going with PUlp Fiction. I am so due to watch that again. Uninterupted with the lights a dimmed. No barking dogs, only me and a bolw of popcorn.

Can't think of any. This technique mostly bugs me.

Well.... Pulp Fiction.

I don't tend to like those much.

Ok, so I'm doing a project worth a year-long qualification on how Samuel Beckett utilises nonlinear narrative in experimental fiction. Or something very similar, at least. I don't get how someone can dislike this technique when it's used so often and it's far from always in an arthouse fashion. Heh.

Anyway, I hate Memento. Really dislike it. But then, I don't like postmodernism in general (overused and ultimately meaningless). I was just casting about for ideas.

Films - La Jetée, because it's absolutely incredible. And I could have a look at how Vertigo is almost the linear representation of a nonlinear concept... or something.
Books - Slaugterhouse-Five, Beautiful Losers

Sliding Doors was a cool example of this, though I wouldn't call it a favorite. Also, the Back to the Future series.

Pulp fiction is my favorite.

Meah, I tend not to like non-linear narrative entertainment

Books: 'Cloud Atlas', 'Ghostwritten' and 'Star of the Sea' all spring to mind.

Pulp Fiction is one that springs to mind.

My favorite novel of this genre is Stand On Zanzibar by John Brunner.
