"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" (2008)
"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.
"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" Movie Review
Screenwriter Eric Roth took the premise of F Scott Fitzgerald's story and crafted a fantasy film the likes of which we haven't seen since "Forrest Gump" which, by the way, Roth adapted from Winston Groom's novel.
