50 First Dates

I am hoping that many of you have seen this movie (50 First Dates) with Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler.
After learning about different kinds of memory disorders, i thought about the movie and I thought that she would be an example of a patient with Retrograde amnesia as she could not remember anything from the past before the accident happenned. but also, she would forget everything after every day. So does she suffer from both anterograde amnesia and retrograde amnesia?

She's a good example of anterograde amnesia, but better still is that 10-second guy. They're similar to H.M. But fictionalized of course.
