The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
“Life isn't measured in minutes, but in moments.”
Born under unusual circumstances, Benjamin Button springs into being as an elderly man in a New Orleans nursing home and ages in reverse. Twelve years after his birth, he meets Daisy, a child who flits in and out of his life as she grows up to be a dancer. Though he has all sorts of unusual adventures over the course of his life, it is his relationship with Daisy, and the hope that they will come together at the right time, that drives Benjamin forward.
This film offers a sweeping, introspective journey through a life lived extraordinarily. It's a deeply romantic and melancholic meditation on time's relentless march, the bittersweet nature of connection, and the universal search for belonging, all wrapped in a visually grand, fantastical package.
