BENJAMIN BUTTON is the Best Film of 2008, so says Capone!!!

Hey everyone. Capone in Chicago here.

If all goes as planned, I'll have my Best & Worst of 2008 piece for you in about a week. But here's a little preview: David Fincher's THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON will be at the top of my Best list. I could, quite literally, spend 4,000 words talking about this single film and ignore almost everything else that opened in theaters this holiday weekend (everything except THE WRESTLER; that one will be on my list too). Instead, I'll try to break it down to its essentials.

Beaks here...

If anyone can break the big-screen F. Scott Fitzgerald curse, it's David Fincher. But did he really need three full hours to exorcise the Hollywood demons of THE GREAT GATSBY, THE LAST TYCOON, TENDER IS THE NIGHT, THE LAST TIME I SAW PARIS (and the author's alcohol-hastened demise at the age of forty-four)?
