The technical dazzle of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a truly amazing to behold, this story of a man who ages backwards requires Brad Pitt to begin life as a small old man, then blossom in middle age, and finally , point to become young. The director David Fincher - with make-up artists, special effects wizards, and body doubles - reached one of the main sources of fascination roles in the beginning of the film. The premise is loosely borrowed from a story by F. Scott Fitzgerald (and bears a stronger resemblance to Andrew Sean Greer's novel The confessions of Max Tivoli), with the young / old Benjamin growing up in New Orleans, the girl of his dreams (Cate Blanchett), and sharing a few years its delightful to their different aging agenda send them in opposite directions. The love story of the second half of the image, such as Eric Roth's script begins to resemble his work on Forrest Gump. This is unfortunate, because Benjamin's early life is a wonderful picaresque novel journey, including a series of midnight liaisons with a Russian woman (Tilda Swinton) in a cozy hotel. Fincher notes, all with an entomologist eyes, cool and tough, that the material from all gooey. Still, Hurricane Katrina framing story feels put-on, and the late Benjamin slide film scenes during the later stages - curious indeed.
