In a sense. The main character in the movie was attacked one night by an intruder in his house. He suffered a head injury during the attack that left him unable to form new memories, but he could remember things that happened before just fine. Also during the attack his wife was killed (or so he thinks). He then vows to avenge her death by finding her murderer and killing him. But since he can't remember anything, he has to take a lot of notes. The really important notes he has tattooed on his body - the facts. Everything in that post I made was tattooed on his body.
Ok, bonus question. Who can tell me who Sammy Jankis is? Another gift pack is up for grabs.
Rent the film....best of 2001.
