TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

To understand how the characters' memory loss would manifest, writer and director Claire Carré researched Henry Mollison, who had his hippocampus removed as part of an experimental brain surgery to treat his epilepsy and then couldn't form any new memories for the rest of his life. She also researched Clive Wearing, a UK musician and composer who developed retrograde and anterograde amnesia after contracting a virus. Wearing is unable to form any lasting new memories; his memory "resets" after approximately 30 seconds, and he often thinks he just woke up from a coma.

The filmmakers chose actual abandoned sites as filming locations to give the movie added authenticity. These included an abandoned church and apartment building in Gary, Indiana and an underground bunker in Poland used by the Nazis in World War II.

Popular Dialogues

"[first lines] Guy: Okay, here it goes. Things to remember. The air in the morning in June. The sound of ice cream trucks. Emma's sleeping face. The first time I held Jasper. Saturday morning cartoons when I was a kid. Running into the ocean. Driving around on Saturday nights with Frankie. My first car, the badger. My mother's garden and her hands. She had beautiful hands. The freckle on the back of Emma's knee. That's the kind of thing to remember, that freckle. Guy: I will remember you. I will not forget you. Promise."

"Teacher: [talking to himself] How can I know that I don't know?"
