RACHEL GETTING MARRIED
Walked out. The movie can't decide if it's about the addiction or the family. The family is hardly interesting to watch, mine own is better. The funeral-style speeches at the wedding rehearsal are completely incongruous. A white girl marries a black guy - unlikely in reality, enforced in the movie - the Obama syndrome I guess.
THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON
Watchable. Brad Pitt and Taraji P. Henson (Queenie in the film) should get Oscars for acting and Greg Cannom for make-up. Brad Pitt was incredible - even speaking with a perfect Afroamerican accent. Another movie with the Obama syndrome - a white boy raised by a black step-mother. Lengthy, the main story is slow enough and would be perfectly sufficient without the frame of the diary-reading or the story-in-story tale of "what if" when the car accident is recounted.
