This time, the premiere of "Rejuvenation" is scheduled to be held at the Chinese Grand Theater in Los Angeles.

In fact, this movie has received a very good reputation after its previous small-scale screenings. Of course, this was something that everyone expected.

After all, the current Li Yi has made many movies in Hollywood, and he is no longer the same Li Yi as before.

Therefore, his own appeal is not low. In addition, the actors this time are also at the level of big names, and Dean Films, an old Hollywood giant, is producing, so the scene is extremely lively.

Soon, the movie officially started to be screened. Li Yi has been an experienced director for a long time, and he is really used to this kind of scene.

It was impossible to be nervous, but he was somewhat looking forward to it and curious about how everyone would feel after watching this movie.

At the beginning of the movie, countless buttons of different shapes and colors rained down like rain, and finally formed the logo of Dean Films.

Then there is a sound montage, accompanied by the sound of "dip, beep, beep" and a vague sound, the picture gradually becomes clear, and the first shot shows a close-up of the wrinkled old man's face.

Her face was struggling to breathe, and one could immediately understand that this was an old man who was getting old and was about to reach the end of his life.

The old man's eyelids trembled, as if he wanted to open them, but it was very difficult, and he murmured for a while.

The sound of the TV came, reporting news about the hurricane. The camera gradually zoomed out, and it turned out that the old man was lying on the hospital bed. She asked with unclear words: "What are you watching? Caroline?"

"Watch the wind, mother!" another voice replied.

"They said a hurricane is coming, Mom!" The camera showed her daughter lying by the window, yawning and stretching.

"I feel like I'm floating on a ship!" the old man said about his feelings.

"Can I do something for you? Mom!" the daughter came to the bedside and sat down, reaching out to hold her mother's old hand.

"Make you feel better?"

"There's nothing to do, my baby, just leave it like this. I can't open my eyes more and more, and my mouth seems to be filled with cotton..."

The old man's hand unconsciously grabbed his chest, and the nurse came over quickly: "Okay, okay, Ms. Daisy, you almost scratched yourself!"

Seeing her mother's appearance, daughter Caroline felt very sad. She held her mother's hand and said: "A friend said that she didn't even have a chance to say goodbye to her mother. I think...

I want to tell you that I will miss you very much!" At this point, the daughter couldn't help but choked up. She leaned down and hugged her mother tightly.

After letting go, she asked with tears in her eyes: "Are you scared?"

But the mother didn't answer the question, but said: "I'm very curious, what will happen next?"

Her eyes opened a little wider, as if she was caught in some kind of memory: "The train station was built in 1918. On the day it opened, my father also went there. He said that a brass band was invited to perform that day!"

The camera follows Ms. Daisy's memories and narration, and comes to a past full of age.

"We also invited the best clockmaker in the entire south to build that majestic clock. His name is Mr. Gettu (Mr. Cake)..."

The scene in my memory is very interesting, it's the kind of unstable scene that sometimes flashes with light marks like that of old film movies.

This man named Getu was born blind. His son later went to join the army. He prayed to God to keep him safe. During those few months, he kept making clocks until one day they received a letter saying that their son came back.

He was just carried back and buried in their family cemetery!

After they died, the family could be reunited. Mr. Cake continued to build the clock, spent all his efforts, and finally completed it!

In fact, at this time, many viewers at the scene were confused and had no idea what the story of this watchmaker was about.

But some people know why this story is told, because this clock is a clock in the opposite direction!

"That was a memorable morning. Dad said there were so many people there that day, even the boss came!"

But when the clock was started for the first time, everyone was surprised to find that the clock actually ran backwards.

Someone asked: "The clock runs backwards!"

"I did this on purpose, so that the children who died in the war might come back home from the dead! Go home to farm, work, have children, and live their long and fulfilling lives, maybe

My own son can also come back. If I have offended him, please forgive me!"

With the words of Mr. Cake, the clockmaker, time seemed to start to go back in the camera, on the battlefield, and at the train station, the children who were sent away seemed to have returned to their parents.

"Mr. Cake never appeared again. Some said he died of a broken heart. Some said he went to sea..."

The scene returned to the ward, where the nurse asked for leave and left.

Caroline suddenly said: "I hope I won't let you down!"

Ms. Daisy replied: "You won't let me down!"

"I know I have no talent..." said her daughter Caroline, but Ms. Daisy interrupted her, patted the edge of the bed and said: "Help me find the black suitcase.

There’s a diary in there!”

Caroline hurriedly looked for it and quickly found the diary.

"Can you read it to me?" Daisy asked while lying on the hospital bed.

"That's what you want?" Caroline was a little confused.

"Yes, I have read it countless times..."

But when Caroline opened it, she found that the diary was not like a diary. There were many things in it. Ms. Daisy said: "I just want to hear your voice, my dear!"

Caroline opened the diary and found a wedding photo, but she just glanced at it and turned it over.

Then I started to read in my diary.

"The date is April 4, 1985, and it says New Orleans!"

"This is my last words and testament. I left nothing, no property, no money. Really, I came alone and I went alone. I will not bring you with me when I am alive, and I will not take it with me when I die. The only thing I have is

That’s my story, and I’m writing it now, while I still remember, my name is Benjamin Button!”

"My birth was unusual..."

Along with Caroline's voice, the voice gradually turned into a man's voice.

Fireworks burst into bloom, illuminating the night sky with incomparable brilliance.

"The First World War had just ended at that time. Later I heard that the night I was born was particularly good!"

On the street, countless people were celebrating the end of the war, but a man was rushing through the crowd so anxiously that he even lost his hat!

It turned out that the man's wife was giving birth tonight, and he had tried his best to get back, but it was still too late. Her wife had a difficult delivery and could hardly hold on.

The weak woman begged her husband: "Thomas, promise me to give him a place to stay!"

This poor woman, this poor mother, still couldn't let go of her child at the last moment before she died.

"She gave me life, and for that I am forever grateful!"

As if I could feel my mother's departure, a baby's cry resounded.

Attracting the father's attention, he came to the baby's side, but the next moment, he was frightened.

He suddenly picked up the swaddled and crying baby, who was also his child, and rushed out.

The cries of babies, the sound of fireworks, and the sounds of people cheering on the streets are all mixed together!

The father, holding the child in his arms, came to the river. He suddenly stopped. The baby's cry was still loud. Although the father could not accept it because the child was a freak, at that moment, he still hesitated.

At this time, a patrolman not far away spotted him and seemed to hear the cry of a baby.

He hugged the child and ran away, and the patrolman whistled behind him and chased after him.

He kept running along the river. After running for an unknown amount of time, he finally evaded the patrolman in an alley.

He didn't know where this place was, but he still put the child on the steps of the stairs, and then stuffed the money he had with him into the swaddling clothes.

Suddenly the door on the stairs opened, and the father who had abandoned his son quickly hid behind the wall.

The black woman Queenie was flirting with another man. Seeing this, he knew that they would definitely find the child, so he left decisively.

It turned out that this place was a nursing home. The two of them almost stepped on the baby when they were going down the stairs. The baby was frightened and cried loudly.

Queenie opened the swaddling clothes and was also shocked.

Because this baby, Benjamin Button, is wrinkled and looks nothing like an ordinary baby, more like an old man!

This scene also made the audience in the theater couldn't help but exclaim.

The man suggested handing it over to the police, but the kind-hearted woman couldn't help but feel distressed when she looked at the child: "Poor child! No one is willing to take him in, come on, baby!"

She picked up this abandoned "freak"!

She took the child into a nursing home: "You are as ugly as an old jar, but you are still a child of God!"

She put the child in the big drawer.

Then go take care of things.

An old lady kept saying that she had lost her necklace, which was given to her by her sister. She said that someone must have stolen her necklace.

But the necklace is hanging around her neck!

In the nursing home, the majority of people are naturally the elderly. The doctor is checking the health of the elderly. The old nurse Queenie found the doctor and asked for his help.

She asked the doctor to help check the child's body.

Even the doctor marveled: "I have never seen someone with cataracts that is so severe that he is almost blind. I'm not sure if he can hear. Judging from his bones, he has severe arthritis. His skin has no elasticity at all, and his hands and feet are all hardened.

His body is declining, he doesn’t look like a newborn baby at all, he looks more like a dying old man in his 80s!”
