Another Trailer for 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button'

DateFriday, September 26, 2008 at 8:48PM
It was dogged a little bit at the Telluride Film Festival when 20 minutes of clips were showing during a tribute to director David Fincher, but I'm a little more optimistic about what the possibilities are for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

Running it through the same filter you use for every movie - what's the story, who are the actors, who's directing it, who wrote the script - I think Button could be one of the better movies of the year. The combination of Fincher, Brad Pitt, Cate Blanchett, Tilda Swinton, and screenwriter Eric Roth has to give you some confidence. That's not to say that movies that are similarly assembled don't disappoint, just that the majority of them don't.

I love the trailers, including this brand new one, which you can watch in High Definition at Apple.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button will be in theaters on December 25th.

I agree Colin, the director and cast are too good and the trailer was excellent. This just made the list.
