Memory Collection (Clips for Class, Cengage)

Several short video clips related to memory, including forgetting.

Remembering and Forgetting (Discovering Psychology Series, 2001)

"This program looks at the complexity of memory: how images, ideas, language, physical actions, even sounds and smells are translated into codes that are represented in the memory and retrieved as needed."

The Mind Hidden and Divided (Discovering Psychology Series, 2001)

"Based on the pioneering research of Sigmund Freud, this program explores how the events and experiences that take place in the subconscious manifest themselves in our conscious lives. You'll learn about repression, the distinction between discovered and false memory syndrome, hypnosis, and split-brain cases."

Taryn Simon.  Beginning at 11:36, the speaker discusses false memories that led to the conviction of innocent men, and the role photographs played in creating those false memories.
