Extended TV Spot for Benjamin Button

August 18th, 2008
Written By: Jonathan B.

Supposedly, this aired during the Olympics at some point, but I missed it. It’s a one-minute long TV spot for David Fincher’s upcoming The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. It’s poor quality right now, but there is plenty of new footage here and this picture is looking as magnificent as ever. I have a hunch that all these awards shows aren’t going to overlook this one like they did with Fincher’s Zodiac last year.

Check it - and of course, if you haven’t read the F. Scott Fitzgerald short story that this is based on yet… well, what are you waiting for?

  1. I caught this the other night during the Olympics. It was already high on my ‘must-see’ list, but this got me even more excited for it.
