We Can Remember It for You Wholesale
The story We Can Remember It for You Wholesale reminds me about the movie Memento. In
memento the main character cannot create new memories and has created a system
where he makes notes to himself about people and details. This was done in order for him to find the
man that killed his wife, which is the time where his short term memory
malfunctions. The reason for the text
reminding me about the movie is that both main characters have a memory that
was somehow erased and they both was to remember, or experience it again. For Dick's character, he forgot about his
past as an agent and his trip to Mars.
His subconscious can be used to explain why he wants to go to Mars so
much as it is trying to make him remember what happened. This is paralleled to the character in the
movie with the notes.
