Overview

Forgotten is a 1933 American Pre-Code film directed by Richard Thorpe. Plot summary Retired Papa Strauss, a widower, who has been a successful dye manufacturer, is being shifted around from one married son's home to the other, and is not welcome at all because his daughters-in-law object to his smelly pipe smoking. Finally the family tucks him 'out of sight and out of mind' into a nursing home, with very little 'honor thy father' thought given to it. However, unmarried daughter, Lena, who loves her father dearly—with help from an inheritance from her uncle, and her chemist fiancée, who has new patented technology—sets up a new dye works with her father as head. They make a home for him. The new company steals business from the sons' company and finally the father has to bail them out. The sons and their wives attitudes finally change. Cast Lee Kohlmar as Papa Strauss June Clyde as Lena Strauss William Collier Jr. as Joseph Meyers Leon Ames as Louie Strauss Selmer Jackson as Hans Strauss Natalie Moorhead as Myrtle Strauss Natalie Kingston as May Strauss Otto Lederer as Uncle Adolph Tom Ricketts as Mr. Johnson External links

Notable quotes

“[M]y memory rests, but never forgets what I lost.”
— Billie Joe Armstrong, "Wake Me Up When September Ends", American Idiot (2004), California: Reprise Records
“That frivolous young widow ought to have paid for the solace she declared so often she found in books. "I must read to forget." All very well, but she should not forget to pay for the means of forgetfulness. The waters of Lethe may be waters bought without money and without price, but my books ought to be paid for in cash.”
— William Darling, The Bankrupt Bookseller, 1947, p. 178.
“I’m the best there is at what I do. At least the people still living after I’m done undoing would say that. Everyone calls me Wolverine. I don’t remember other names. In fact, I don’t remember much of anything.”
— James Logan Howlett (Hugh Jackman), X-Men Origins: Wolverine (video game) (2009)
“You forget a thousand things every day, pal. Make sure this is one of 'em.”
— Michael De Santa, The Jewel Store Job, Grand Theft Auto V
“Unliving things have no passions, and no memory: mere matter is the amnesia of the universe.”
— John C. Wright, The Far End of History (2009) in Gardner Dozois & Jonathan Strahan (eds.) The New Space Opera 2 (mass market paperback edition, ), p. 589
“Etiam oblivisci quod scis interdum expedit.”
— It is sometimes expedient to forget what you know.
