The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (DVD)

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (DVD)

"I was born under unusual circumstances." And so begins "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," adapted from the 1920s story by F. Scott Fitzgerald about a man who is born in his eighties and ages backwards: a man, like any of us, who is unable to stop time. We follow his story, set in New Orleans, from the end of World War I in 1918 into the 21st century, following his journey that is as unusual as any man's life can be. Directed by David Fincher and starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett with Taraji P. Henson, Tilda Swinton, Jason Flemyng, Elias Koteas and Julia Ormond, "Benjamin Button," is a grand tale of a not-so-ordinary man and the people and places he discovers along the way, the loves he finds, the joys of life and the sadness of death, and what lasts beyond time.

Loved this movie!, June 20, 2009
By MrsChuckBass

"I absolutely adore this movie and consider it one of Brad's best. He deserved the Oscar nod that came along with being a part of this. Al though the movie is lengthy (and I did have some gripes about the time spent analyzing his early life), once Benjamin started to transition into the "real Brad" I loved it. This is one of my favorite movies and I would recommend it to anyone who loves Brad Pitt."
