--The guy is an IRANIAN famous actor -PEJMAN BAZEGHI (www.pejmanbazeghi.com) ,and the girl is NAGHME AKA NINI who is not famous ;) and doesn't have any talent !!! but really looks good ;>
--The guy is standing on a chair ,behind the white frame .
--The mirror (framed by a paper) which the girl's reflect is in it ,has been fixed by a wooden handle stick to it from behind the black background and placed on the guy's shoulder ,someone was adjusting it and giving it the right angle there .
--The girl is standing on a ladder in front of the framed guy .
--I am standing on a chair a kind of 90 degree .
--The bad thing that there was a lot of work to do and i forgot to fix the light in the right position ,there is a shadow on the guy ,and i can't clone it out .
The only hard thing shooting this photo was JUST EVERYTHING !!! because of having none professional equipment (background - light...) ,fixing both backgrounds and holders - fixing the mirror which the girl reflect has to be in it - the light and getting rid of shadows for both faces - the poor sleepy-noisy REZA ASGHARIAN who is in charge of holding both mirror and the background and the ACTOR !!! and sometimes fixing everything and snoring to make everybody laugh ;> ruining the whole set but the submitted photo is the one after cracking everybody.

Photographer's notes are hidden until after voting. IMO using the title to slip them in during voting seems a little ...... tacky? I do like the shot, though.
Personally, I think your title detracts from the entire image. What's the point of pointing out that it's not a photo? The image itself could be crisper. I think the shadow line across the man's shoulder is a distraction as well.
Nicely shot. I love the darkness to it. I would have left the title to "Memento". If someone didn't believe it met the rules, I would have let the Site Council work it out in validation.
This is a great picture. I'm guessing this took a bit of setup? The low light and black background are very cool. It's almost too clear however for the movie (neither picture that you are imitating is a very clear picture), but that's okay.
cool shot, but was this actually a scen in the movie? I have seen the movie quite a few times and is one of favorites and I don't remember a photo that just says memento on it. PM if I am wrong.
Loved the movie and I love your treatment of the poster. You may be getting dinged for it not being an actual scene from the movie but I dont care. You executed this brilliant idea very well (and thanks for the tip in the title - I would have thought her a picture). Bumping up.
Great concept. Plus 1 for me recognizing it without being bashed over the head by the picture's title, minus 1 for bashing me over the head with the movie title in the picture itself, minus 1 for bashing me over the head by telling me in the title that the girl's in the mirror. It LOOKS like a photo of two pictures, and the title doesn't correct that.
That said, for this movie, a picture of two polaroids is dead on target.
