Passing Through, girl you didn’t quote Langston Hughes? That was the funniest thing I’ve read all day. Did Brad say for x to stop talking about him and Angie? Or is this just bad translation.
I grew up in Fresno, CA. Some of my best friends and neighbors were Hispanics. I took Spanish in high school and college. And for the life of me, to save myself and children, I couldn’t translate a sentence. No language aptitude at all. Mother and two daughters yes. Me and one daughter no.
PT I will pray for you because I enjoyed the way you adapted it using your words. Peace
AAAAAWWWWWW!!! Damn…those trailers are good. This might be the first movie in a long time that I’ll pay full price to see…
Thanks for all the clips. I am looking forward to seeing the Benjamin Button Movie. I will be there.

54 New Images from THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON
Written by Stephanie Sanchez

Paramount Pictures has sent the IESB 54 new images from THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON!
“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” began its life as a short story written in the 1920s by F. Scott Fitzgerald, who, in turn, drew his own inspiration from a quote by Mark Twain: “Life would be infinitely happier if we could only be born at the age of 80 and gradually approach 18.”
Fitzgerald’s story was a caprice, a find of fancy, and bringing it to life on the screen was long perceived as too ambitious, too fantastical to accomplish. The project floated around for 40-some odd years until producers Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall took it up. For over a decade, the project has likewise intrigued Eric Roth, David Fincher and Brad Pitt.
For Roth, the concept became an opportunity to introspectively view the broad canvas of a life through the synthesis of intimate moments experienced every day, through events that may be as large as a world war or as small as a kiss. “Eric was the ideal person to fully realize the potential of such a large-scale but deeply personal story,” Kennedy notes. “In ‘Forrest Gump,’ he revealed intimate portraits against the backdrop of epic stories, and a gift for richly observed detail.”
The chance to live life backwards would seem ideal. “But it’s not that simple,” says Roth. “On the surface, you think it would be just lovely, but it is a different kind of life, which I think is so compelling about this story. Even though Benjamin is going backwards, the first kiss and the first love are still as significant and meaningful to him. It doesn’t make any difference whether you live your life backwards or forwards - it’s how you live your life.”
While conceiving and writing the screenplay, Roth experienced the personal loss of both of his parents. “Their deaths were obviously very painful for me, and gave me a different perspective on things,” he notes. “I think people will respond to the same things in this story that I responded to.”
The movie explores the human condition that exists outside of time and age - the joys of life and love and the sadness of loss. “David and I both wanted it to feel as if this was anybody’s story,” Roth says. “It’s just a man’s life - that’s what’s sort of extraordinary about the movie and very ordinary at the same time. What affects this odd character affects everyone.”
While Benjamin’s predicament is entirely peculiar, his journey highlights the complex emotions at the core of every life. “It touches on questions we ask ourselves over the course of a lifetime,” says Marshall. “And it’s rare that one movie will elicit so many different, personal points of view. Someone in their 60s or 70s will look at the movie one way, while someone who’s 20 is going to see it another way.”
THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett opens in theaters Christmas Day!

Video at site
Cate Blanchett is starring alongside Brad Pitt in this holiday season’s ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,’ and she’s talking to ET about making the film.
Cate says about her superstar co-star, “I happen to really think Brad is a great human being, and he has such a particular take on the world.”
Likewise, Cate’s co-star in ‘Button,’ Taraji P. Henson, who plays Brad’s adoptive mother in the film, says, “He’s a sweetie pie actually. You know, you hear rumors and stories about actors who are on a certain level and, you know, they won’t show up for your off camera stuff and he was always there. Always there, and so generous. He wouldn’t have it any other way.”
In theaters Christmas Day, the film follows the life of Benjamin Button (Pitt), who is born as an old man and ages backwards as he gets older. Watch our video for more with the women of ‘Benjamin Button’!
