Memória, identidade, Memento

"Lenny, you can't trust a man's life to your little notes and pictures.
- Why not?
- Because your notes could be unreliable.
- Memory's unreliable.
- Oh, please.
- No, really. Memory's not perfect, it's not even that good. Ask the police. Eyewitness testimony is unreliable. The cops don't catch a killer by sitting around remembering stuff. They collect facts and draw conclusions.
- That's not what I'm saying.
- Facts, not memories. That's how you investigate. I know, it's what I used to do. Memory can change the shape of a room, it can change the colour of a car. And memories can be distorted. They're an interpretation, not a record. They're irrelevant if you have the facts."

Christopher Nolan, Memento (2000)
