First off let me go on record saying...I dont like Brad Pitt...I think he's a dirty dog for what he did to Jennifer Aniston (leaving Jen for Angelina Jolie...blehh!)

Anyway, Chrystian and I went to go see a movie today. I had two free movie tix and we wanted to go see Bride Wars with Kate Hudson and the chick from princess diaries (her name escapes me at the moment). So apparently you cant see "special engagements" with the silver AMC movie tickets so we had to choose a different one that started at the same time. So we decided to see The Curious Case of Benjamin Button with Brad Im an a-hole Pitt and the beautiful Cate Blanchett (love her!). Ordinarily, I avoid movies with Brad Pitt in them (see first paragraph) but I figured I love Cate Blanchett so it should even things out. Honestly....I loved this movie. Everything about it. Without ruining it for those of you who havent seen it yet...it tells the story of Benjamin Button, a man who starts aging backwards with bizarre consequences. The main tagline of the story is "Life isn't measured in minutes, but in moments". It tells a great lesson about life. The way the movie was set up reminded me a lot of the movie "The Notebook". Anyway, I really liked it...even Chrystian got teary-eyed with me on some parts. :)

I love movie recommendations, specially on the kind of movies that if you havent read the book or heard reviews about it you think twice to spend your "free tickets" :) I havent seen it but I am intrigued by your review.I love the quote "life is not measured by minutes, but by moments" sooo true

I loved the movie the best part was being able to spend some alone time like when we were dating. although parts in the movie really almost made me cry i recomend it to everyone it made me realize and be able to appreciate every moment i spend and have with my baby girl Audrey Lynn Gordillo
