It's based on a story by F Scott Fitzgerald and is directed by David Fincher, the man who made Fight Club. Oh, and it stars that boy who played Tyler Durden.

Brad Pitt plays Button, born as a feeble geriatric who ages in reverse and ends up as a baby before he dies. The brilliant 1922 short story of the same name shows Button manage to adjust to this, but things get decidedly confusing for the protagonist when he falls in love with a 30-year-old woman, played by Cate Blanchett. It's a great story, a fine set of actors, and Fincher always delivers.
