The tagline for this film is, "I was born under unusual circumstances." Well, when you are born as an 80 year old baby, grow up to be Brad Pitt and have an affair with Cate Blanchet, I think you're born under pretty awesome circumstances! Until you grow into a baby again. That part probably sucks. Nonetheless, this movie presents a crazy dilema - growing up backwards and falling in love with someone who is growing up fowards, so that you are the same age at only one point in your lives - in Brad and Blanchet's case, 40. Thoughts about aging are depressing, but this entirely eliminates the possibility of growing old together with your partner. 78 year old Blanchet will be breast feeding 2 year old Brad - yummy. This film has me immensely curious.
