as the credits began to roll at the end of the curious case of benjamin button, mrs. noz leaned over to me and said: "my momma always told me, life is like a box of chocolates..." i had to agree. about midway through it occurred to me that the movie felt like a remake of forrest gump.
the message of "the curious case" seemed to be that making a magic clock that goes backwards won't solve all our problems after all. true dat.
