What's most curious in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Watching a movie with 13 nominations for the 81st Acedemy Awards, you ought to have some kinda expectation from it.

Compared to several years' back starring Brad Pitt's 'Seven Years In Tibet', at least you don't have to feel watching the movie as though sitting there for seven years to finish. 2 hours of yours are sufficient.

Well, as the name bears the word 'curious', that becomes the biggest lure for me to decide going for it.

Out of the total nominations, it swept off 3 awards, being for The Best Art Direction, Best Makeup & Best Visual Effects.

If you ask me, personnally I should compliment with a thumbs-up on the makeups done to Brad. Transformation to an old guy actually does not amazed me too much (since there were many many such characteristic features created before from the past movies).

Near to the ending of the story, it was an astonishment to see Brad Pitt grown to his 'youngster' age. Tell you what, he really looked like our young and fresh Mr.Pitt just like you saw in his earlier films.

You hardly, or not at all exaggerating to mention it was never been, seen such fabulous (reverse) effects applied to any of the actor/actress in any movie before.

And, I would have been saying the same thing as per dialogue said by his getting-old wife, Daisy, starred by "Cate" Blanchett. She said : "You are so much younger.....you were right, I couldn't have rising both of you (Button + his daughter)"

**** Brad looked even younger you saw from the above pic

Besides winning the above-mentioned awards, yet, the local newspaper in NewOrleans, Times-Picayune commented the New Orleans' house featured in the film deserves an Oscar for best supporting role by a family homestead.

Lols .. Those who have seen the movie will recognize the sprawling, 8,000-plus-square-foot raised centerhall cottage as the old folks' home where Benjamin Button (Brad Pitt) is raised by the resident manager, Queenie (Taraji P. Henson). Whether or not should it becomes the first non-human nominees, this famous movie house is now up for sale. The premier auction house in US, Sotheby's is selling the home for $2.85 million !!!!

Forgotten the main topic of this post. So, what should be the most curiousity you could be finding after watching it? Oh, simple... there's ain't anybody is curious enough to actually seize Benjamin away to do research of how such phenomena of started his life old and ending in resentment of dying 'infanted-ly'.. oh dear.

Wonder what will be Mdm Jolie's reaction towards it if such case would to befall onto her hubby in the real life?

Since this couple were so much involved as global ambassadors for welfares around the world, she would have to build a fund for the I-called-it 'Button Disease' patients. Hee..

And, the moral of this epic is, stop feeling sad while you feel old , start to cherish if you can
grow older with your loved ones.....
