Dear Parent or Guardian:
I will be showing the film, Memento, on both October 4th and 5th after school for extra credit. The students have been learning about memory, and specifically, about amnesia. This movie covers anterograde amnesia, and received two Oscar nominations, for Best Screenplay and Best Film Editing. It has been ranked as #100 on the list of Greatest Screenplays Ever Written. Memento is rated R, therefore I am requiring students to receive permission in order to view the movie.
Please sign your name at the bottom if your child has permission to stay after school and view the film.
Thank you,
Sarah Hankins
My child MAY view the film Memento:
