El Caso Curioso de Benjamin Button
I am *so* in. Perhaps it's the Saint-Saëns piece, The Aquarium (so perfectly used in "Days of Heaven"), the playful time concept or the magical world evoked in the trailer, but this has become one of my top 10 "must-see" films of the year. Sweet! Watch it while you can, as it will probably get taken down soon.

Certainly looks curious.
I'm not a fan of Fitzgerald, Pitt, or Blanchett (sorry, Dorothy!), but I AM a fan of Fincher and Swinton. It's also been a little while since something THIS original has hit theaters, so I'm in.
Damn, work IT blocks video feeds so I can't check this out. But I'm excited and encouraged by your reactions! Synecdoche, NY and Button are my most anticipated films. I'm a fan of all those you listed k so it bodes well.
Another trailer I'm not letting myself watch! I hear they're playing one in front of Indy, I'll have to plug my ears and close my eyes.
(hangs head in shame) I'm weird, I know.
Yours is a curious case indeed, Craig Kennedy.
K, you're in total pun-mode today :P
I know, Dorothy. I can't help myself sometimes.
Craig, God bless you for having the strength not to watch it. I just saw it again because I'm so impressed, but I figured out a whole lot (I'm sure) looking at the very last frame of the trailer. Sigh. Still, I'm *psyched* to see it.
OMG, I was blind and now I can see. That trailer is f***ing fantastic. Perfectly accompanied by The Aquarium, which I had mistakenly thought was composed by Morricone. The music is so integral to the Days of Heaven aesthetic that hearing any of it cues soulful reverie in me. This looks like a very expensive european art film. I'm so in there is no way out.
HD trailer on Apple seen!
*swoons*
I'm in~~~
Love at first trailer view~~ the feeling, the music... fan of Fincher, Pitt, Swinton and Blanchett~~ xD
Very good early Oscar buzz xD
