Movies: the Curious Case of Benjamin Button
We went to watch Bedtime Stories and the Curious Case of Benjamin Button yesterday and when we walked out of the theater it was already dark outside. It was a warm and foggy evening. Bedtime Stories was fun and christmasy. And the Curious Case of Benjamin Button starring Brad Pitt was quite long, about 2 and half hours, yet incredibly touching. Through the whole life of Benjamin and his lover or "wife" Daisy, we witnessed the post-war world and how people struggled and survived and changed in war times and peace times. I especially like the going-backward clock part. It makes you feel so sad but more than that, it makes you think the meaning of war. I may give you the wrong impression that this movie's about war but it's actually a romance movie. The love story of Benjamin and Daisy is the main plot. Actually, there're many plots that I like in this movie like Benjamin's encounter with others Elizabeth, Benjamin's observance of the old people in the nursing house and his love for his mother Queenie, etc. It's a great movie and the music in it is a pleasure thing too. :D
