The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a curious film indeed. It stars Brad Pitt as the titular character who is born very old and grows younger through his life until he dies. A strange tale indeed.

The film is based on the F. Scott Fitzgerald novel (Amazon.co.uk / Amazon.com) and is directed by David Fincher, it also stars such names as Cate Blanchett, Tilda Swinton and Julia Ormond.

The film promises a lot, especially as it is just so plainly unique, but what I'm most interested in is the possiblity of all these great talents giving their best performances in a character rich tale, all helmed by the visually engaging David Fincher, well his films are I didn't mean him!

The trailer for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button comes from Trailer Addict through Empire.

Well, what do you think? I thought it was really, really creepy...
