comment Identify this teenage love movie
I upvoted your answer and the question. This is the movie I thought of from your description and would have given as an answer. Mainly because of the boy having a terminal disease and being a dick.

comment Why is “Based on a True Story” used?
Good Answer I like the different points for why it is used. Especially the fifth point of wanting to build believability. I've never thought of it in that term before.

comment Did Tyler Durden forget his name?
This provides good information but doesn't really answer the question. I completely understand that they are indeed the same person but my question is " Has (Ed Norton) always been called Tyler Durden since he was a little kid and he forgot his name or is Tyler Durden a created name. Also kicker86 makes a good point as well.

comment Did Tyler Durden forget his name?
At the point that he meets Marla though he's already having identity problems though. He's taking many different support groups to find relief for his insomnia and using different names in each group. Remember Robert Paulson (Meatloaf) sees him and yells out his name from support group. Marla early on asks him what his real name is and we don't hear the answer, but I believe at this point we've already seen Brad Pitt flash by in a support group scene meaning that Tyler Durden already exists. But before his insomnia what is his name? Or at work even?

comment What really happened in Memento?
I think this line in the script really shows that his condition is actually stress and trauma induced. "I guess I can only make you remember the things you want to be true." There is no reason why he should remember Sam Jenkins the way he does or with a wife. Repetition and conditioning could only account for so much.

comment What really happened in Memento?
@s427 I don't really remember the car accident either which is why I just referred it what caused his condition as "the accident" or "incident". You've got a good point about his aggression being the last real memory he has but if that's true then he wouldn't remember any part of Sam Jenkins killing his wife since that never happened. He's confused his reality after the attack with a previous memory and he recites it as if it's a real memory. There would be no way for him to remember Sam Jenkins killing his wife with insulin.
