Memory constitutes our life, and our life should not live in memory.

It took two or three noon to finish the movie, so the details are not clear. Anyway, after watching it, I feel like I have to say something, so let me talk about it based on my feelings
. The theme of this movie is memory. The movie uses a memory to reproduce the entire storyline of the machine. Peter Dinklaki has first-class acting skills. His actor Sam himself lives in a painful memory. He is very concerned about the memory machine and hopes to get rid of the pain through this machine. Unfortunately, it was the sudden death of Gordon Dunn, the maker of the memory machine. Sam thought that someone had committed the murder, so he made up his mind to find out the truth. He used this memory machine to find clues, and finally, with his efforts, he did find out the cause of death (although the main cause was the machine). And Sam finally helped himself to reproduce the painful memory with the help of this memory machine, which is another kind of relief.
In the process of investigating the case, the protagonist checked the memories of many testers and various social roles. The one who impressed me the most was an old man. After reading his own memory, the old man was deeply moved. This is my life. Many times we forget who we are, and we will remember our past when we are old, just like this old man. Yes, our lives will become memories, some you remember, some you can't remember, or you forget, but they are actually in the brain. We ourselves, family members, friends, or some irrelevant people will become our memories, and in the same way, we ourselves will become the memories of others. Whose past is not a memory, and whose life is not a memory?
How important memory is to us, very important, just like Gordon’s mistress Wendy said, if my memory is known to others, I will feel that it is not my life. It can be seen that the privacy of memory. Everyone has their own privacy, and privacy exists in our memory. If we are taken away from our memory, then we are almost naked.
Moved, Freddie did not look at Sam's memory in the end, but chose to seal up with Gordon's last memory and throw it into the ocean. Yes, so what?
Memory is important, but living in the moment is more important.

Rememory quotes

  • [last lines]

    Gordon Dunn: We define our lives by our memories. Who we are on a particular day is the result of memories from every day before. But memories are elastic, malleable, often mercurial things. I think of my own life, the sum of my memories. Like any man, I've done many things that I feel guilt for. I feel pain from so many things... for the damndest of things. Memories of true happiness are what make life worth living, but they're so often lost in the sea of bad ones. We are nothing more than the memories we keep. Memories of overwhelming joy... profound sadness... gratitude... Pride. Grief. Despair. Remorse. Passion. Regret. Regret... Regret. But the strongest memories we carry with us are ones of love. And finally, hope.

    Gordon Dunn: Now, I want you to think of a memory, first thing that comes to mind. Go ahead, close your eyes...

  • Carolyn Dunn: Funny how life goes, huh? Years pass, and slowly you find yourself defined not so much by the things that you do, but the things that you don't do. I was gonna learn French, write a book, I was gonna have a happy, huge, sprawling family, and one by one, I didn't do those things, or those things didn't happen. And I am what is left. I guess, in part, we're all remains of unfulfilled dreams.
