Klappentext zu „The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Film Tie-In “
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a 1922 short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald. It first appeared in the May 27th edition of Colliers Weekly and later that year was included in his book of short stories, Tales of the Jazz Age. The protagonist, Benjamin Button, is born as a feeble old man, and ages in reverse until he become a baby at the end of his life. Fitzgerald noted that "This story was inspired by a remark of Mark Twains to the effect that it was a pity that the best part of life came at the beginning and the worst part at the end." In this new publication, the story gets a graphic interpretation by Calef Brown, an artist whose illustrations have appeared in numerous national and international publications, among them Time, Rolling Stone, and The New Yorker. Paramount Studios will be releasing the film of the same name on November 26, 2008, starring Brad Pitt as Benjamin Button and Cate Blanchett as his wife. The film is directed by David Fincher of Fight Club fame.
Autoren-Porträt von F. Scott Fitzgerald
F. Scott Fitzgerald, 1896 in St. Paul (Minnesota) geboren, hatte nach den Studienjahren in Princeton mit 24 Jahren sein Ziel erreicht: Sein erster Roman 'Diesseits vom Paradies' machte ihn auf einen Schlag berühmt und reich, mit seiner Frau Zelda stand Fitzgerald im Mittelpunkt von Glanz und Glimmer. 'Der große Gatsby', sein heute meistgelesenes Buch, war jedoch ein finanzieller Flop. Alles endete im schrecklichen Kater der Wirtschaftskrise. Alkohol, Zank und Geldprobleme zerstörten die Ehe mit Zelda. Um Geld zu verdienen, ging Fitzgerald 1937 als Drehbuchautor nach Hollywood, wo er 1940 starb.
