The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)

About the movie

As she lay dying in a hospital bed on the eve of Hurricane Katrina hitting New Orleans, an elderly woman asks her daughter Caroline to read from a diary left to her by a man named Benjamin. Born on the same day World War I ended, Benjamin Button's mother died giving birth to him. As a newborn, he was old and wrinkled and his horrified father Thomas Button leaves him on the doorstep of an old folk's home. Benjamin fits in well for, despite his young age, he looked as old as most of the residents. Benjamin soon realizes that he is growing younger, not older however. Early on, he meets the love of his life, Daisy, a beautiful red-haired, green-eyed child who grows into a beautiful woman while Benjamin grows into a handsome young man. Their lives take many different turns and making a life together is long in coming. It also is of limited duration given their ultimately different fates.

 A gorgeous, but depressing drama, April 11, 2011

The Curious Case of Benjamim Button is by no means a feel-good movie. In fact upon watching it, I felt depressed even the next day just thinking about it. People may confuse this for a love story but to me the film clearly symbolizes death. The love aspect is certainly present, though it is not the center of attention here.

 Aging in Reverse, November 22, 2010

"Since this was recently a major motion picture I was surprised to find this was a book of only 60 pages. Inspired by a Mark Twain's observation that the best things in life happen at the beginning and the worst at the end Fitzgerald explores the ramifications of "aging" in reverse. Benjamin, or Methuselah as we was first named, makes his entrance into the world as an old man of 70 with a long gray beard and talking. His father notes his son "was a poor excuse for a first family baby." (pg. 18). To cope his father ignores the idiosyncrasies and tries to force him into chronological age appropriate behavior to which the younger Button attemtps to conform. Benjamin eventually marries, fathers a child, becomes a successful business man, and has a successful military career. However, his reverse aging causes great difficulty as he loses interest in his wife and eventually needs the care of his son as a father figure. It is a solid read providing food for thought for a culture that yearns to capture a forever young attitude"
