Another Movie Outing!

Watched "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" with the gang last night... I actually sat through a 166 minute movie! And that's not including all the advertisements (e.g. white flower oil) and trailers... Quite an achievement!

Great plot, great director, great actors.

And Brad Pitt is just so handsome!

Some quotable quotes from the movie:

"Your life is defined by its opportunities... even the ones you miss." - Benjamin Button

"It's a funny thing about comin' home. Looks the same, smells the same, feels the same. You'll realize what's changed is you. " - Benjamin Button

"Benjamin, we're meant to lose the people we love. How else would we know how important they are to us?" - Mrs Maple

"You can be as mad as a mad dog at the way things went. You could swear, curse the fates, but when it comes to the end, you have to let go. " - Captain Mike

And of course, not forgetting...

"Did I tell you that I was struck by lightning seven times?"

Once tending the cows.
Once sitting in his truck.
Once repairing the roof.
Once getting the mail.
Once walking his dog.

There was one more "struck by lightning" scene shown in the movie... cannot remember what was that.... hmmmmm...
