I am VDysa, and I remember movie plots.
Now, I can’t remember a name, an address, or a phone number. I can’t memorize facts or dates. But what I watch, I can remember.
On the other hand, my husband forgets.
If we watch a movie we both watched ten years ago again, he will not remember the ending.
I do.
In a way, I like remembering what movies are about. Especially good movies that make me feel certain things. I can connect to these plots or characters when I want to remember those feelings.
I got to thinking that my husband, when he rewatches movies he has seen but has forgotten, has the privilege to experience that movie all over again. For some movies, that can be cool. To discover that twist again, or to experience how the plot made you feel for the first time.
Both are good traits, but I guess you can’t have both.
