I was going to suggest the HBO film "Reminiscence", which was panned as mediocre but I liked it for being Noir and somewhat original. It features a machine that can replay your own memories and record them for others -- useful for investigating crime, but otherwise highly addictive to the nostalgic. Reading about The Dead Past tho, there's a good deal of overlap with the plot device of "Devs", a periscope into deep history, but which Nick Offerman's character uses to re-live moments of his daughter's short life, as Asimov's protagonist does.
