This review is from: The Memory Thief (DVD)

I have every book and tape on the holocaust; I've lost family during the war and I won't ever want to forget or have the world forget what has happened. This movie was odd, very odd but it was also sheer genius. The story is explained above in another review so I won't go into all the particulars but it is amazing how this tale was weaved-turned upside down-and circled around to end up changing this boy's life. Now I don't believe this kid was all there but what he went through and what he became was heartwarming. Nobody has written a movie like this where so few characters held the whole show--if you are Jewish (as I am) and if you are not it doesn't matter--this is a piece of history that will bring tears to your eyes, heart to your heart and you will never forget it--it just lingers, it makes you think 'could I have survived?' and that's a good - no it is a GREAT thing for the more we know the more the more we will be sure this WILL NEVER EVER happen again -EVER!!!!!!!!!!

Length:: 1:50 Mins

THE MEMORY THIEF is a mesmerizing, audacious psychological thriller in the tradition of TAXI DRIVER.

THE MEMORY THIEF tells the story of Lukas - an aimless, haunted young man in contemporary L.A. who buries thoughts of his own past in the humdrum routine of a tollbooth clerk. A chance encounter with a Holocaust survivor suddenly brings into focus a world and an identity he embraces with frightening intensity - the victimized Jews of World War II. As he begins to enthusiastically act out his newfound obsession, Lukas discovers that survivor's guilt isn't just a Jewish phenomenon.
