And so begins The Curious Case of Benjamin Button , adapted from the 1920s story by F. Scott Fitzgerald about a man who is born in his eighties and ages backwards: a man, like any of us, who is unable to stop time. We follow his story, set in New Orleans from the end of World War I in 1918, into the 21st century, following his journey that is as unusual as any mans life can be. Directed by David Fincher and starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett with Taraji P. Henson, Tilda Swinton, Jason Flemyng, Elias Koteas and Julia Ormond, Benjamin Button is a grand tale of a not-so-ordinary man and the people and places he discovers along the way, the loves he finds, the joys of life and the sadness of death, and what lasts beyond time. The Oscars may have ultimately snubbed The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button , outside of prizes for its extraordinary make-up, visual effects and art direction, but there’s a terrific film here that’s set to stand the test of time. Perhaps it’s one that deserved a few more golden statues too. It’s a curious tale certainly. It follows the title character, as he’s born old, and as he ages, his body gets younger. As the film progresses, he crosses with Cate Blanchett’s Daisy over the course of their respective lives, as their paths continually emotionally intertwine. Based on the story by F Scott Fitzgerald, the film version of The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button owes much to its director, David Fincher. This feels every inch a labour of love project, and a technically astounding one at that, with every frame packed with detail. Furthermore, it’s impossible to see the joins between the computer work and the real life characters, and that means the focus can be fully on the absorbing story. If you can forgive the slightly clumsy wraparound to it, this is a wonderfully told tale, boasting some terrific acting performances and sumptuous direction. It looks glorious in high definition too, boasting one of the finest 1080p transfers seen to date. It inevitably puts the special effects work under scrutiny, but the film passes the test effortlessly. The end result is a terrific piece of cinema, that looks and sounds simply outstanding. The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button is a Blu-ray very much worth owning, and is the kind of tale that’s set to be enjoyed for generations to come. -- Jon Foster Review: Did I tell you I've been struck by lightning seven times ? - I didn't think I would really like this film before I started watching it , but by the time it was over I had it marked down as one of the best films of 2009. This film is entirely captivating, almost magical,the cinematography is beautiful and the make up remarkable. The acting by Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett is quite superb and all the characters in the film are well rounded and the viewer can empathise with them all. There is precious little nastiness and evil in "Benjamin Button" which is a story about love,family,destiny and growing old. Brad Pitt plays Benjamin Button who is born old but grows younger as time passes. His father abandons him at an old peoples home when he sees his baby's wizened, aged face and body. He grows up and becomes a sailor , having an affair with a married diplomat's wife played by Tilda Swinton in Murmansk. However he is besotted for most of the film with Daisy (Cate Blanchett) who he first meets as a 5 year old and she turns out to be the love of his life as they grow old and grow younger respectively.They meet in the middle,so to speak,and have a child together. Throughout the film there are flashbacks to the present day as the dying Daisy gets her daughter to read from Benjamin's diary to her in her last hours of life. "Benjamin Button" is a quirky,but powerful and poignant love story that doesn't last a minute too long at a running time of over two and a half hours. It's a must see. Review: What a wonderful film! - Well to start off I must say what a great film. Didn't expect much from this at all but I was blown away by the way the story unfolds. There are so many standout moments in the film but the ending has to be one of the best endings I have seen to a movie for a long time. The way it pulls at your heart strings. I think that everyone should watch this movie, it won't appeal to everyone but if you like good movie-making at its highest quality then please watch it. I would easily put this in my top ten movies of all time. I haven't seen a movie as good as this at the cinema this year and quite frankly a lot of the films this year have been very disapointing in the extreme such as Wolverine! This is also another showcase for how much better Blu-Ray is compared with DVD. The picture quality is superb and the sound also is brilliant. The extras on the disc are comprehensive in the extreme and I just think that you should buy this!! An incredible film buy it! ## Images ![The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button [Blu-ray] [2009] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61UwiJmdwoL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Did I tell you I've been struck by lightning seven times ? *by L***N on 15 November 2009* I didn't think I would really like this film before I started watching it , but by the time it was over I had it marked down as one of the best films of 2009.

An incredible film buy it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A movie worth revisiting *by N***L on 27 January 2011* I felt curious to see this movie because the theme is linked, albeit obliquely, to radical life-choices made at a time when most people are preparing for old age. I was not disappointed. I have now seen the film twice and feel the need to go back to it again, several times, to gather more from the sub-text. I would sum it up as 'thought provoking'. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/57615499-the-curious-case-of-benjamin-button-blu-ray-2009](https://www.desertcart.no/products/57615499-the-curious-case-of-benjamin-button-blu-ray-2009) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-28*
