While we were in New Orleans, we all went to my favorite theater and saw The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I knew it was filmed in New Orleans, but I didn't really know anything else about it. In the elevator on the way to the theater, I made the comment to my mom that I hoped it wasn't going to be a sad movie because I didn't really feel like crying. Well, I was sadly (no pun intended) mistaken. It was sad. I cried sobbed. My mom sobbed harder. But the movie was beautiful. It felt special to see it in New Orleans (Katrina is part of the plot as well)...during the movie, people would whisper places they recognized and you could feel the emotion when clips of Katrina weather reports were shown. But I'm really glad I saw it.
I will also say that the movie made me like Brad Pitt a lot more. The whole leaving-Jenn-for-Angelina thing always bothered me, so I was on Team Anniston, but now- I have a new respect for Brad. Way to go, buddy.
So all these pictures are the house...isn't it nice? This is the front entrance, leading up to the porch.
We tried to see the back, but it's hard to see, with a huge wall and gate in the way.
If you look real hard, the back steps are right in there, where Benjamin's dad left him, and many other scenes took place back there. Brad and Cate hanging out together, no big deal.
The house is for sale...around 3 million if there are any takers out there.
Go and see it and let me know what you think!
