The Oscar Revenge of Benjamin Button

Make fun of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button all you want, but it pulled down thirteen nominations in the 2009 Oscar race.

Including best picture, best actor (Brad Pitt), best director (David Fincher), best phony old-guy makeup, etc, etc.

The ceremony is February 22nd. The other best picture nominees: Frost/Nixon, The Reader, Milk, and (our early favorite) Slumdog Millionaire.

Variety has the story and the full list of nominees.
