Memory Movie Marathon

I always do a New Year's Day movie marathon every year. This year I decided to pick all movies & tv shows that have to do with memory in some way. Enjoy!

"Dollhouse" (TV Series 2009–2010)-A futuristic laboratory assigns different tasks to its various residents, who then have their memories erased upon the completion of their assignments.-"Noteworthy"

A Little Princess (1995)-A young girl is relegated to servitude at a boarding school when her father goes missing and is presumed dead.-"Epic"

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)-A couple undergo a procedure to erase each other from their memories when their relationship turns sour. "Epic"



Desperately Seeking Susan (1985)-
A bored suburban housewife, seeking adventure to her life, accidentally gets hit on the head, wakes up with amnesia, and is mistaken for a free-spirited New York City drifter named Susan. -Haven't seen this film in a while so I can't give it a rating right now.

The Number 23 (2007)-Walter Sparrow becomes obsessed with a novel that he believes was written about him. As his obsession increases, more and more similarities seem to arise. "Noteworthy"

Shutter Island (2010)- Drama set in 1954, U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels is investigating the disappearance of a murderess who escaped from a hospital for the criminally insane and is presumed to be hiding on the remote Shutter Island. "Noteworthy"

Memento (2000)-A man, suffering from short-term memory loss, uses notes and tattoos to hunt for the man he thinks killed his wife.-My favorite movie-"Epic"

Triangle (2009)-The story revolves around the passengers of a yachting trip in the Atlantic Ocean who, when struck by mysterious weather conditions, jump to another ship only to experience greater havoc on the open seas. "Epic"

The Bourne Identity (2002)-A man is picked up by a fishing boat, bullet-riddled and without memory, then races to elude assassins and recover from amnesia. "Stamped Out but worth seeing"

The Bourne Supremacy (2004)-When Jason Bourne is framed for a botched CIA operation he is forced to take up his former life as a trained assassin to survive. "Stamped Out but worth seeing"

The Bourne Ultimatum (2007)-Jason Bourne dodges a ruthless CIA official and his agents from a new assassination program while searching for the origins of his life as a trained killer. "Stamped Out but worth seeing"
