Watched The Curious Case of Benjamin Button


My mom told me about this movie a few years ago. Her plot synopsis kinda freaked me out so I wasn't in the mood to watch it. 


The movie is about a baby that was born like an old man. His father leaves him on the doorstep of a black couple who raise him.


After thinking he would die within days, Benjamin grows up to a creepy Old Man-child thing. 


However as Benjamin gets older, he really gets younger. 


Such a great little tale (based on an old F. Scott Fitzgerald short story), and one of the most melancholic endings I've ever seen.
