Yes photographic memory exists and it is inherently natural in every human beings,all you have to do is to develop it.Psychologists recommend some techniques to develop that kind of ability.Good luck...

Actually, as I understand it, a photographic memory also applies to text.  That is, you can read something once and remember it.  As to never forgetting a face, I suspect that's an exaggeration.  You probably forgot the guy who walked past you just exactly two minutes before you went into the shop where you bought your shoes the last time, didn't you?  And how about the faces in a crowd; can you honestly say you can remember every one that was visible in a picture of a football stadium full of fans?\n\nI doubt that anyone has a truly photographic memory, but there certainly are people who remember very well, and it's a very valuable asset.  However, if you don't also have a good forgettary, you can get pretty clogged up!

There are memory exercises (free on the net) that you can do to increase you ability to remember these numbers. I wouldn't risk cheating, ever. I do wish you luck, though.

Nobody knows for sure. "During the past two decades, however, a few hardy souls have reopened the scientific study of déjà vu. They hope to nail down a persuasive explanation of the phenomenon, as well as shed light on some fundamental elements of memory and cognition. In the new book The Déjà Vu Experience: Essays in Cognitive Psychology (Psychology Press), Alan S. Brown, a professor of psychology at Southern Methodist University, surveys the fledgling subfield. 'What we can try to do is zero in on it from a variety of different angles,' he says. 'It won't be something like, "Boom! The explanation is there." But we can get gradual clarity through some hard work.'\n\nThe four current theories are \n\n1. dual processing\n2. neurological \n3. actual similarity in memories\n4. double perception\n\nTo get more information on these theories, please read the article linked below.

Check your facts... you may be confusing several movies.  \n\nPersonal note:  Chronic use of weed will cause difficulties with your memory!

try using images to improve your memory.  If you can connect something you want to remember with some visual mental picture sometimes it helps.  And the more ridiculous the better usually.  Example...  I want to remember a ladies name "Madge Baskum" I picture her wearing a badge and carrying a basket.   Badge Basket=Madge Baskum, it helps me anyway, hope it helps.

My question would be movies for entertainment or movies that are based off of books?  \n\nIn several of my classes, my professors would have us read the book or the story and then we would watch the movies in class and contrast and compare.  That's more of a director vs. author argument, though.  However, the justification for showing the movies, too, is that it helps to better the understanding of the cultural perspective (when the book was written vs. when the book takes place vs. when the movie was released).\n\nI hope I didn't confuse you and that I gave you something to think about and maybe even a basis for an argument...\n\nBy the way, what side are you on?

use mnemonics to help remember lists of things

One that you don't watch :)\n\nDepends on the type of movie watcher you and the person are. Your best bet is to ask your local video store clerk, some are actually surprisingly good at matching you up with a good film!

I think you have a short term memory loss... is that your question???

there are some softwares available in internet but usually not free, one of them that i use is called movie collector , a pretty cool software

The secret of a good memory is attention, and attention to a subject depends upon our interest in it. We rarely forget that which has made a deep impression on our minds.

No.  Memories are formed from bonds between neurons in the brain strengthening and fusing.  Basicly, the more you think about something, the more it gets "burnt" into your brain.\n\nThis occurs all over the entire brain, including visual, hearing, touch, taste, and smell areas.

There are three basic questions to ask about memory:\n\n    * how are memories formed?  (encoding)\n    * how are memories retained? (storage)\n    * how are memories recalled?  (retrieval)\n\nEncoding\n\n    * encoding is an active process\n    * requires selective attention to the material to be encoded\n    * one question is at what point in the process is the distracting material screened out\n          o early:  Broadbent (1958)  binaural v dichotic listening\n                + binaural (2 messages but heard with both ears)...difficult to recall\n                + dichotic (2 messages, one heard by one ear, other by other ear)...much easier to recall one message and ignore the other\n          o however, cocktail party phenomenon suggests a late filtering:  all messages are registered but only the ones with meaning are actually put into memory\n          o another possibility is that where the filter occurs depends upon the task:  the more attentional capacity that is available at any one time, the more one can use meaning and then the later input filter (selection) (Shiffrin, 1988).\n    * memories may then be affected by the amount or type of attention devoted to the task of encoding the material\n    * there may be different levels of processing which occur and that some are deeper than others, but there is no definition for what is meant by "deeper"\n          o structural encoding (emphasis on the physical structural characteristics of the stimulus) is a shallow level\n          o phonemic encoding (emphasis on the sounds of the words) is an intermediate level\n          o semantic encoding (emphasis on the meaning) is considered deep processing\n    * other aspects of encoding\n          o elaboration=associating with other information\n          o visual imagery can be used to add richness to the material to be remembered (also adds more sensory modalities)\n                + see research by Paivio\n                + then have two chances to remember something:  visual and verbal\n          o self-referent:  make the material personally relevant\n                + this requires deciding how the information is personally relevant\n\nStorage\n\n    * Over the years, analogies have been made to the new technology of the day to try to explain memory...current theories use a computer based model or information processing model\n    * the most accepted model states that there are three stages of memory storage:  sensory store, short-term store, and long-term store.\n          o sensory store retains the sensory image for only a small part of a second, just long enough to develop a perception\n          o short term memory (STM) lasts for about 20 to 30 seconds without rehearsal of the information\n                + with rehearsal short term memory will last as long as rehearsal continues\n                + short term memory is also limited in terms of the number of items it can hold (see Miller, 1956)\n                      # capacity is about 7 items\n                      # can increase capacity by "chunking" (combine similar material into units)\n                + originally short term memory was perceived as a simple rehearsal buffer but it turns out to be more complicated:  it is not limited to phonemic encoding, loss of information occurs by other means than simply decay and displacement, etc\n                + perhaps short term memory is better modeled by the CPU of a computer;  it has the ability to store a limited amount of information in its cache ram while it processes it...a sort of working memory\n          o long term memory has been suggested to be permanent:  that nothing is forgotten only the means of retrieving it is lost\n                + supporting evidence includes the existence of\n                      # flashbulb memories:  vivid recollections of important events such as the death of JFK or the Challenger Space shuttle crash\n                      # Penfield's electrical
