Not the OP but..
Recalling memories for me has the detail of a short journal entry. It's not first person, I don't relive the emotions I felt at the time, and compared to my others the detail isn't there.
For example, when discussing my graduation with my father, I could recall the building, the general layout of the room, and parts of the ceremony's sequence. However, I can't recall walking across the stage, even though I know it happened. In contrast, my father could describe where he was seated and even what people in front of him were wearing.
Media I remember the concepts of what was covered and images or videos are familiar when I see them again, but I can't rewatch a moment in my mind.
Likewise for reading, I remember as a child not understanding what people meant when they said Daniel Radcliffe didn't match up to the Harry Potter they imagined.
