Curious Case of Benjamin Button

April 6, 2009

Today i watched The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. It was a movie full of growing up, growing old, and especially filled with deaths. This movie would be a great movie for a developmental class. hahaha

I am going to select a few scenes which i particularly remember.

The show started with Daisy, an old lady, who is the lead female character. She was laying on the hospital bed.. dying pretty soon. Her daughter, Caroline (hopefully it's the correct spelling) was there with her. Caroline looked at her mother and asked her "Are you scared?"

Daisy replied "I am curious.... I am curious at what's going to happen next". And that got my mind thinking a lil..

In another scene, Benjamin finally found his biological dad. Benjamin was abandoned when he was little and halfway through the show, the dad told him that he was his son. When Benjamin's dad was about to die, Benjamin brought him to a lake where his dad used to see the sunrise when he was little. There his dad died and Benjamin pondered upon these words

"You can be as mad as a mad dog. And curse at fate. But when the end comes, you have to let go"

And he's true. we have to let go when the end comes.

God Bless~
