Benjamin Button

Could David Fincher's The Curious Case of Benjamin Button be this year's Forrest Gump? Both are penned by writer Eric Roth and what I can gather from watching the trailer, share the same kind of whimsical quality. The effects work that transforms Pitt into an old man looks pretty amazing. I've waited a long time to see a concept like this make it to the screen -- the idea of a man who ages backwards while those around him grow older. I'm really looking forward to this film.
