Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Dear bloggie,

After watching tis movie, I'd suddenly feel afraid of growing old. I know I'm already half way there or maybe more. The scene where the granny cradles the toddler as he is about to die due to old age is VERY VERY disturbing.

The best quote from the movie for me:

For what it's worth:
It's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be.
There's no time limit, stop whenever you want.
You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing.
We can make the best or the worst of it.
I hope you make the best of it.
And I hope you see things that startle you.
I hope you feel things you never felt before.
I hope you meet people with a different point of view.
I hope you live a life you're proud of.
If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.

The movie touches on some of the facts of growing old, no one is perfect forever. The fact while Benjamin body for instance was growing younger, it seems to people like Daisy (his gal) that they were starting to breakdown while Benjamin continues to become even younger and stronger. Tis is till Benjamin body started enter the kid age, when his mind no longer able to remember who he is anymore. And finally in his final moments as a toddler, one can no longer see the difference between Benjamin and an old man dying.
