In a movie theatre, the credits are a phenomenon that some choose to participate in and some choose to reject. This reaction is common to more solemn lists, such as war memorials and the names of those lost to catastrophes. They overwhelm and are difficult to process. Some of the audience stay and observe, some leave. The staff sweep up popcorn and collect garbage. Memorial by William Andrew Finlay Stewart is a meditation on remembrance, loss, and the cinema.
