The NeoFiles

The NeoFiles:

In the recent film Paycheck, based on a P.K. Dick short story, the protagonist has selective memories erased by a tech corporation as the ultimate non-disclosure agreement. It's a typical Dickian world (although poorly realized by director John Woo and badly acted by Ben Affleck) in which unfriendly external forces toy with people's minds and their sense of reality.
