Film similarities highlighted in awesome online clip
Scores of moviegoers have noticed similarities between Forrest Gump, the Oscar-winning blockbuster starring Tom Hanks, and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, which plays like Forrest Gump minus the charm and entertainment value (to say nothing of the sociopolitical worth). This isn't surprising, since both films were book adaptations scripted by Eric Roth.
But even the most astute viewers won't catch the head-spinning number of similarities as highlighted in this hilarious online video. The clip has already been removed from YouTube after humorless Paramount Pictures (the studio which produced both films) demanded it be taken down, so hurry and catch it at this URL:
