- It took me 3 nights to watch this film -
so yeah, it's very long...
BUT also very good.
- Although it felt like I was watching 3 films in 1 film I must say the makers did a great job in
portaying the life of a man that ages backwards.
The film flashes back and forth from an old lady in a hospital in New Orleans, during the tragic
time of hurricane Katrina, to the life of Benjamin Button.
The link being that the old lady is the woman Benjamin Button spent a great part of his life in
love with. She (Daisy) is spending her last days in hospital with her daughter by her side.
Determined to tell her story, Daisy gives her daughter Benjamin's diary which explains
everything.
The story in itself is quite fascinating. Something I've never seen done before, a man ageing
backwards. The make up for Benjamin's face is extraordinary and the acting by Brad Pitt (BB)
and Cate Blanchett (Daisy) can't be faulted. I would definitely recommend this film for anyone
who wants a good night in and has a lot of time!
