By this I mean apocalyptic anarchy in “Fight Club” and horrific serial killings in “Seven”. So why should a movie adaptation of a F. Scott Fitzgerald Jazz Age short be any different? Well despite seemingly lighter hearted source material, I am sure that Fincher will put his uniquely unnerving twist on the story. Just listen to the music in the trailer.

No, Benjamin Button, played by Pitt, is not a bootlegger, he is a curious old man that has the unique situation of aging in reverse. A syndrome that gets complicated when he falls in love with Cate Blanchett somewhere around the retroactive age of thirty. This trailer premiered during showings of Indian Jones this week and is only currently available in a foreign tongue.

Check out these indies honoring the Bard from Avon, as there is nothing more that needs be explained that will not be said during the trailer. The laughs here are plentiful, and thankfully they don’t have to come at the expense of Mel Gibson.

Hamlet 2
Unfortunatly, due to Big Brother’s language cencorship , you have to go here to view the trailer. But how about this nice picture from the film.
