Out-of-class movie topic - Benjamin Button

So I'll admit. I really didn't want to see that movie all that much. Three hours? Really?

But it actually was a really sweet movie, and fascinating to watch. As interesting as it was to see Brad Pitt get younger - I think the effects making Cate Blanchett older were just as great.

It definitely had a very "Forrest Gump" quality about it, in that it traced historical events, the main characters got together at different points in their lives, and in this case, a hummingbird took the place of a floating feather. But that didn't really distract me from it.

So well worth the price of admission. Especially at student discount prices. :)
