Wet my eyes and watch the last The cast and various lists. It was discovered that it was adapted from a short film by Fitzgerald. It was shocking. Fitzgerald actually wrote this kind of story?! What a surprise. I
found it on the Internet that night . I have read the original text of Fitzgerald ( http://www.readbookonline.net/read/690/10628/ ). I'm relieved. My intuition is correct. Fitzgerald can't write such a thing. Story. The only similarity between the original text of the movie and the novel is this name. Other characters, stories, and emotions are all original screenwriters. It's like a proposition and composition given by a school teacher, "There is a man named Benjamin Button, Born in a wealthy family, he specializes in buttons. He is old and will die when he is born, but he gets younger and younger. Based on this background, write about Benjamin's life." Fitzgerald and screenwriter Eric Roth each wrote their own A story. Fitzgerald got C, Eric Roth got A+.
Find out Eric Roth's script from the Internet ( http://www.paramountguilds.com/movies/script/CCBB_Screenplay_WGA.pdf ). It's already one o'clock in the morning after reading. Tears are like rain, and I am more moved than watching a movie.
After reading the script, I realized that it was the script that touched me. It was the moment when the director and actor presented the script perfectly. It puzzled me. It was Brad Pitt that eclipsed the film. His plain acting skills, he mumbled and said with saliva. His lines are the failure of the film. He really should learn how to act from the British actors. Swinton and Blancchett are quite brilliant, and there are some details that they even took the script to the next level. They and the director worked together to bring Brad Pitt this I can't help but show the wonderfulness of the script. The love story of Benjamin and Daisy has twists and turns, and every twist in it is very subtle. Brad Pitt is so helpless in the face of this subtlety. All he can do is be himself , Eye candy. What a pity such a good character.
There are two favorite series.
One is the "Magical Midnight" in that Russian hotel,

Midnight's hotel is a magical place...
And we see the empty front desk and tiny silver bell ... The vacant lobby, with its musty old rugs ... The open elevator, waiting ... The dining room, with its crisp white tablecloths.
Viewers to see the hotel front desk and no one on stage Little silver bell...empty hotel lobby, old carpet...who is waiting for the open elevator...restaurant, covered with slush white tablecloths.

We see and hear it all ... All the little sounds, a symphony, that make up life in a hotel in the middle of the night ... Benjamin and Elizabeth sitting quietly drinking their tea.
Viewers see and hear are all fine so ... The sound, like a symphony, played the life of a midnight hotel... Benjamin and Elizabeth sat quietly and drank tea. "The
other is Benjamin and Daisy going out to sea together and they began to live together, living in a bed on the floor. The days on the mat. I like the texture of the home movie (HOME MOVIE) of this series of scenes. An ordinary and happy day described without words and pictures. Just like many people’s own home videos.

DAISY'S (V.0.)
I'm so glad we didn't find one another when I was 26... I'm glad we missed...
BENJAMIN'S (V.0.)
Why do you say that?
DAISY'S (V.0.)
It wasn't right...
Daisy (Voiceover)
Thank God We didn't get together when I was 26 years old... Thank goodness we missed each other.
Benjamin (voice-over)
Why?
Daisy (voice-over)
because the fate has not arrived...
(Daisy said in the movie, because I was too young then ,And you too old. Because I was too young, and you were too old then.)
The script itself is not perfect. Daisy had obvious traces of plagiarizing Amelie and Run Lola Run during the car accident in Paris. It may be tempting to mix various random factors and then change each random individual to create a different ending. . But it’s incompatible with the whole film’s performance. The incident itself is not more special than the other twists. The life mentioned in this episode is full of "the possibility of a car crash". This topic is also in the previous and subsequent episodes. Nothing appears. The technique and the content are very abrupt. Although graceful, but embarrassing. If you choose a method similar to a Russian hotel or sailing trip, you may be more coordinated.
The most unacceptable story line arrangement is Benjamin's departure.
Maybe like The script says that he wants his daughter to have a normal childhood and not to experience his own pain. Pain because of the difference. Happy because of being normal. For this reason, he separated from the lives of his mother and daughter. He wanted to be alone. Pain in exchange for the happiness of both of them
. I don’t. I believe. I don’t buy it.
Of course, if he doesn’t leave, this movie won’t touch me so much. Because it makes me cry like rain, no matter what Whether the movie or the script is the plot after he left. (Of course it is possible that the touching part of the latter part of the movie is because Brad Pitt finally disappeared. Hehe.)
Love that cannot be realized is always touching. From North Africa Spy Shots to Going out of Africa to the British patient...
Maybe this movie goes all out to express "ambiguity". You can believe in "Nothing Lasts." (Nothing lasts forever) or you can believe in "Somethings Last." (There is always something that lasts forever)
moved Mine is the lasting possibility. And our attachment to this possibility.
