"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" - Preview & Trailer
I can’t seem to get excited about “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.” It just looks like a weird, dreary movie to me. Anyone looking forward to it? I’ve posted the trailer below. It stars Brad Pitt as a guy who’s born old and ages backwards. I don’t know what happens at the end. I guess he evaporates into a puddle of … something. It’s rated PG-13 for brief war violence, sexual content, language and smoking. I’m sure I’ll see it at some point.

‘Benjamin’ Beauty: A Quick Commentary on ‘Benjamin Button’
I found the above image over at the New York Times and since I am still not entirely ready to write a full review of the film and it hadn’t been released yet I figured I would add it to this short article commentary since I liked it so much. After seeing The Curious Case of Benjamin Button last night my first instinct was to run home and write all about it. A few notes trickled into a couple of pieces, but for the most part I felt I would have to see it again before reviewing it. Then, as I was work

Did David Fincher Just Make a Chick Flick? [The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button]
newVideoPlayer("/benjaminbutt2_io9.flv", 506, 310,""); David Fincher recently released a longer trailer for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, a bewitching, sepia-kissed romance-drama starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett. Camille Saint-Saën’s wistful, whimsical “The Aquarium” scores the longer clip; it’s a track that would fit effortlessly into the Tim Burton oeuvre, and surprisingly feels at place here too. Yes, this is a radical departure for the Fight Club and Zodiac director, who is indeed
