Before you know "The Social Network",Just after you know "Fight Club", and "Se7en"
There's another lovely and interesting Movie by also Director, "David Fincher" which you shouldn't miss,
"The Curios Of Benjamin Button".
And, Guess what? Ya, it's Brad Pitt (one of my favorite actor again) after "Fight Club" and "Se7en".
It tells the tall tale of an infant who is born as an old man—tiny but suffering all the infirmities of an 80-year-old-who lives his life in reverse, becoming younger with each passing year until he achieves real infancy at the end of his life.
Benjamin (Brad Pitt) he get his last name from button-manufacturing father and the family abandon him cos of horrified. They left him front of the steps where old-age home and he raised by the black employee Queenie.
Benjamin was growing up surround with all the old folks and he just look like one of them, but actually, he is just a little young boy spirit stuck in a old-man body. This little old folk met a lovely girl name "Daisy" whom played by "Cate Blanchett" when grow up.
They have bed time story together and enjoying their lovely time until Benjamin growing "younger" and left his family to town. Benjamin promised to write Daisy a letter everyday.
He did till years and Daisy became a ballet dancer in New York.
When Benjamin grow till Mid-aged, he was there heading to New York for this lovely Daisy. As expectable, two childhood mates falling in love.
They built their home and stay in happiness, but the fact is, Daisy will grow older, as Benjamin will became younger. Only for one magical moment will these lovers share the same age. They have to face the fact and life goes on.
I watched quite some of Brad Pitt's movie. But this one, really different from others and it is touching. Touching when Benjamin reversed younger to a child, Daisy still there for him, till the day he gone.
Maybe you found it some source like "Forrest Gump", it might because Eric Roth wrote both screenplay.
There's some nice quote in this movie,
1. Benjamin: I was thinking how nothing lasts, and what a shame that is.
Daisy: Some things last. (LOVE)
2. Along the way you bump into people who make a dent on your life. Some people get struck by lightning. Some are born to sit by a river. Some have an ear for music. Some are artists. Some swim the English Channel. Some know buttons. Some know Shakespeare. Some are mamas. And some people can dance. (People born with reason....)
3. Your life is defined by its opportunities… even the ones you miss.
4. For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again. ( This is for his Daughter and it's so lovely.)
5. You can be mad as a mad dog at the way things went; you can swear and curse the fates – but when it comes to the end, you have to let go. (And this the one I love most.....)
It's seems bit late to write about this,but Believe me, this movie, really worth a watch.......
