The curious case of Benjamin Button 
"Life would be infinitely happier if we were born at 80 years and we approached gradually to 18" - Mark Twain "
How would life be if we were born learned?, "if we fail to live in the past, and we avoid thinking about death in the future, or do if you simply lose track of the minutes to look more closely at the world and understand that nothing is impossible?
When it comes to Hollywood movies, one thinks of films made for decoration only and not to suggest, however, the curious film by David Fincher, Benjamin Button is a work outside the standards of Hollywood, and the same Fincher (director of "Fight Club" and "Seven"), to deliver a reflection on the human condition and emotions of life itself.
of Benjamin Button The story was inspired by the tale of F. Scott Fitzgerald about the life of a man with a strange phenomenon: Instead of aging, it becomes child. Critics have gagged this film saying it's a great project and very unlikely, however, the film is not about the "unusual" condition of Benjamin Button, will try to show the life of someone who is just a little different and still well, he lives like everyone else. Ricardo Silva Romero Week magazine critic describes the film as a drama "false" and "a film adaptation of a story too serious to satirical." Benjamin Button was not a film beloved by critics in Los Angeles, have been postulated as a "copy" Forrest Gump by all similar details between them: The war, the relationship with the mother and the impossible love.
Significantly, the film's screenwriter, Eric Roth also wrote the screenplay for Forrest Gump in there that have similarities, however, in both cases is the hallmark of Roth: both protagonists are characters who, despite having physical oddities remain both human and live like others. Likewise, Roth gives importance to the details of life, wants to show a way to see from as simple as a little kiss, even as big as a hard battle.
wonderful thing about this film in addition to its extraordinary art direction, its amazing assembly and original screenplay, is the capacity of director, David Fincher, to handle the time-frame planned gift not only justified but also rapturous: All emotions make you feel great and give a precise meaning to work. But perhaps most striking about this film is that despite being a universal history (not just in the U.S. box office sold out, so did the UK and even in Colombia) points to different points of view, for someone of 11 years will a different message for someone 60.
Despite the strong criticism the film has been nominated for 13 categories other than the Oscars but does that mean it's a good movie? How do you know if a film is good or not?, if the artist achieves his goal then is a work of art. Fincher and Roth claim that the underlying message of "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" is that it makes no difference whether you live your life forward or backward: It's how you live your life.
