This is a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald about a man who suffers from a very particular condition. Benjamin Button is born in his seventies and ages backwards. A theme that could easily become drama if not for the witty and amusing tone used by Fitzgerald to tell the story set in Baltimore in 1860. This particular edition contains the original story as well as Eric Roth's screenplay of the 2008 movie.
Starring Brad Pitt and Australian Cate Blanchett, and directed by David Fincher, the movie has won three Oscars as well as the AFI Award for Movie of the Year. "An epic, melancholic romance that employs a multi-generational cast and groundbreaking visual effects" (Tom Huddlestone in TimeOut London)
