Total Recall, not

So it happened that during the course of the weekend, I watched a movie that I had already seen. Nothing unusual there, except both times it was rather involuntary.

However, this time my mind was blank as I divided my time between the movie and finishing the last hundred pages of my book. Well, that was true of the last time too. Just a half-hearted attempt at watching the movie, trying to outdo the last comment and surreptitiously glancing to the side when the screen brightened a notch.

But on Thursday evening, I did not think about the last time I had watched the same scenes. Not once did fake Sony voice recorders, palak-batata, epaulets, chocolate mousse or eating wada sambar left-handed enter my mind.

Not once.

It was only later that I thought, 'Holy Crap! That just happened!'

That movie was Fanaa.
