Benjamin Button Edited Ending

[BIG10717]

@sbunch57 No he did not die, at the end he became a walking sperm.

[Spgchristopher]

At 1:55 what's the title of this song ??

[maguma]

Taking out the scene with the reversed clock sucks out SO much effect of this story. As an editor and artist why would you remove it?

[kitfisto522]

@maguma this is just one scene, it makes more sense in the full edited version I did because the story is much different. the ticking sound of the clock still gives an effect though

[WARMAKER1814]

Not much makes me cry because I know it's scripted ect. I gotta admit though, this bought a tear to my eye the first time I watched it.

[markygermany]

best movie ever! look it twice or five times,you understand what important in life, love,happyness,to be honest,respect,thats it !! best movie ever !!!

[piggyflyer]

I still kind of laugh at the lightning part even while I'm crying

[breumsteen]

you should have put in neil young's "old man" in as the song Works great with the video :)

[GleeFan26]

My mum cried and cried at this part, because of his 'big, blue eyes' :'(

[TuTu99o]

i cried wathcing this movie my girl Tarji should of got an oscar. I love movies like this :)

[12363brad]

Brad Pitt is the greatest actor of all time

[Big12189]

Some people were born to sit by a river. Some get struck by lightning. Some have an ear for music. Some are artists. Some swim. Some know buttons. Some know Shakespeare. Some are mothers. And some people dance. 2 things happened to me when I saw this film and it's ending. 1. I recognized it's message: that everyone has a role in this world, and it's important no matter what. 2. I cried. Like tears came streaming down my face when the piano started playing. I'm crying now.

[Lio48219]

who is the lady holding the baby?

[BethGoth15]

@Lio48219 That is Benjamin's love interest Daisy played by Cate Blanchett.

[mulhern12]

Great Movie

one of the all time bests

[Fairy3012]

As a mother of a 4 month old boy. I just watched this and it really broke my heart watching him get smaller and smaller. As a mother I appreciate my son so much and just want to give him a hugeeeee cuddle after I saw this.

[pgy002]

This is a great movie, but it gets a lot of hate.

[AmyColorful]

Me encanta esa pelicula.. es preciosa

I love the film! is precious! u.u

[BaltFret]

I saw the movie a few minutes ago, too. And the scene when the Benjamin Button as Baby died is very sad :'( But it's one of the Best Movie that I have ever seen. 5 Stars :)

[NWN1000]

What's the name of the piece that starts at 0:55? The end sequence wouldn't be the same without it.

[xTunafishx]

awesome movie. Still not as good as the short story though.

[Gladysandjill]

Where do you keep your full edited version?

[kitfisto522]

@Gladysandjill i have a dvd of it, but the quality wasnt good so i was thinking of editing it again in the future

[mbilalbhatti]

@kitfisto522 Do it n upload plz!

[mypianovidclips]

What is the name of the piano piece in the beginning that goes from 0:00 until 0:50?

[MrVideo32]

not to be a downer or anything

but it doesnt show what happens to Daisy in the hospital

and that would just lead to a plot hole.

yet i still like it, great job

[kitfisto522]

@MrVideo32 i took out all the scenes of her in the hospital, i didn't like that whole storyline that's why i edited it this way

[12meowmix]

@MrVideo32 Daisy died in the hospital of course, but what some people don't know is that the water rushing in is exactly Hurricane Katrina as it is approaching. (New Orleans 2005) It is amazing how the story ended like that and very sad what happened to those people in the hospitals when the Hurricane came. Beautiful Movie

[FreshHypeNFlashy]

@12meowmix

[mulhern12]

awesome movie

great music <3

[ollopmac]

i cry on ending :'(

[mulhern12]

awesome moviee

made me cry

this is a classic

[mooplebot]

When I saw this movie...It just moved me. The ending I was in tears.

[brzilianfire]

The Saddest part was when he sent the letters on every of his Sons' birthday, and the ending is extremely sad because it's SO touching and it connects to some peoples lives

[tiptippinonmydick]

Girls* birthday

[yonglng]

sad

[kuraimirai]

i would cry more n more if this was the real ending xP x]

[toniekid]

god i cried like a babie in this movie... ever notice on the cover, behind the letters that say "Benjamin Button" says 'life' as if it was reflected? that makes the pretty pattern behind his name on the poster :)

[marcorp87]

makes me cry ;'(

[arthurerules]

Love the end... The way the movie shows you how different people are....

[grandcracker1212]

What a touching movie.

[wolfbladefan]

ah the funny lightin dude XD

[KalashnikovBoy94]

LOVE THIS FILM AND THEY PUT I N THE PERFECT ENDING. showing all the aspects of the people he loved

[5odsm]

Poor Mike :(

[haloflight]

An extraordinary movie that touches my heart and tells me; give purpose in your life while you live, and honor those who did.

[flibitybop]

bullshit. should've ended with manbabies.

[12809inthetubes]

Exactly!!! That's what I said! Finally, someone shares my sentiments!

lol read the spoof abridged script it's pretty funny.

[TheMcbro]

This is called Bethena, composed by Scott Joplin around 100 years ago. BTW how does he die?

[LiLaRcHiE645]

he died of 'old age' but in this case it's young age? he doesn't turn into a fetus though haha

[somehotnerd]

dude, i watched this and loved it. I REALLY LOVED THIS edited version but i watched the film and then tried this ending, and it just didn't follow right

[kitfisto522]

i edited the entire movie, this is just the ending scene so yea it wouldnt fit with the normal version

[MrsLarilautner]

man, i always cry when I watch that end. This music and the words are so perfect.

[DownOnMyLuck]

Felt the omission of the clock at the end was a real waste, also really did not like ending with Arcade Fire.

Otherwise superb.

[BOOT3D]

The song is called Bethena, and it was composed by Scott Joplin.

[jkd234]

good job

just wondering tho, be much obliged if someone helps, but does anybody know the name of the song played during the 'some people...' bit

thanks

[armyboy24]

i am also trying to find out that song title!!!! help me pls...lol

[UofLCardFan08]

Very good

[jettyfire]

God wonderful movie...it is so sad at the end how he died

[olavobizonho]

almost cried

[Modelos1234]

The ending is like The Notebook, both made me cry...

[almostloverx3]

i cried for like 3 hours straight after i watched this movie... <3. i'm not crying now but you should have seen me then lol

[seidof]

what is the name of the last song??

[Cutie12Magazine]

Bethena, but it's much faster! :)

x

[slodere]

much better ending than the original ending.

[kitfisto522]

thanks

[slodere]

np, its the music that makes this a perfect ending :) good choice and good timing

[santixwow]

beautiful

[henrynash]

Not creepy...awesome.

[madylinn235]

this always makes me cry.

[TheKiwio]

bethena.. my favourite song..

Das is so traurig.. Das war beim Kinofilm nemme lustig.. Als ich das Video hier zum ersten mal sah hab ich geheult...

[IoSonoUomo]

that is so creepy how he turns back into a baby. so f-ing creepy. it's like a grandmother and her grandson

[NuclearMisfit]

I actually like the ambiguousness of this ending, it leaves it up to the viewer giving few clues on what is happening. Well done.

[mickakaka]

bethena a concert waltz by scott joplin one my favourite songs..

[TheBostonThreeParty1]

Wow that is crazy

[captainsq12]

whats the name of the piano song playing when he is describing ppl

[shelbyxslaughter]

What song is playing at the beginning of this? Is it on the soundtrack?

[Dalric]

Yes, it's on the OST, it's called Benjamin And Daisy.

[skater5411]

love this scene :D

[DrunkPotatoMan]

lol He was only hit by lightning 6 times...

[futebalmakedonia]

7 i think

[DrunkPotatoMan]

yeah but it only shown 5 or 6

[DarkEmperor121]

7, but they never showed the 7th one.

[DrunkPotatoMan]

yeah thats what i mean

[dan93iel92]

This Would Make A Good Teaser Trailer (Without The Ending Credits, But Leave The Bit In With Brad Pitt, Kate Blanchett And The Curious Case . . . . )

[swcc977679]

Favorite scene from my favorite movie : )

[gulgul2006]

0:54~1:50 the meat and potatoes.

[yasiny41]

hmm 3:07 the song is good

[cpo335]

I wish they ended it like this. With the piano still playing and it just cuts out. It's a lot sadder and less symbolic (w/o the clock), but it's stil lgood.

[NatRoseMiska]

i love this movie so much

[lennonmccartneylover]

The music that starts at 0:55, I picked that out on the piano. Its so beautiful. This is one of my favourite movies.

[Nyakasincs]

What's

the title of the music from 3:09 to end?

[Cutie12Magazine]

I love that song!

It's very beautiful.

The song is called:

Bethena

[Nyakasincs]

And who is the artist of this version?

[mnuitgbyer]

bethena by scott joplin

[Killerramp1]

Woohoo he's DEAD!!!!!! This movie is stupid!

[lopefri1]

And u r stupid 2. I guess u have not understood the meaning of this movie.

[jcacka18]

oh this movie rocks its so sad

[utubepooper43]

This should have won the Oscars.

Slumdog Millionaire was good and all, but this movie was freaking brilliant.

[2minuteparody]

Jakmehauf the song in the credits is named My Body Is A Cage by Arcade fire

[SirG0Ian]

"The baby looked at with his eyes saying,'I know you', and went to sleep."

Daisy (I think thats how it at goes)

[NeeltjeWalgien]

this was such a sad movie.

[deppfan1992]

i love this movie so much

[PR3Y4K1ll3RGR3Y]

I love this ending and the Gran Torino ending. They're so great.

[Jakmehauf]

whats the name of the song at the credits?

[DigitalPwn3d]

That old man who got struck by lightning always make me LOL'D

Especially when they show some flachback!! So random lololololol

[Laxanii]

The movie only shows him getting shocked 6 of 7 times.

[Alesana444]

watched this last night was the most boring movie ever if they shortened it it may have been better

[cooldude333]

I would rather grow old than grow into a baby.

This movie makes us realize that aging forward, no matter what happens, is not such a bad thing.

[eduardopopular]

this movie is great

i love it:

[Cyberwavemusic]

Anybody know the second song in this? Where he starts with the "Some people..." speech.

Anyway, yes! Great ending! So nostalgic and beautiful. I love how they tie in all the characters to truly make us feel for them, and just the overall emotional "theme" that happened here. The music is what really ties it in too.

Overall, definitely one of the best movies I have seen so far.

[123stefie]

Bethena from Scott Joplin I believe...

[qwer8907]

well i think my body is a cage is from arcadia fire if i am right

[92BMS]

I find myself wanting to love this film, as the whole plot, storyline and how the story will end is just so appealing to think about. But, the fact is, i think the director has let the viewers down with that ending, as there really isn't anything that clear to take from it, except we will all die! "But when it comes to the end, you have to let go". What does that even mean?

[CryBabysGirl1692]

the first time i watched this i was touched and thought it was just wow but i did not cry then my teacher on the last day of school played the ending and went around saying how he loved us and how special we are and now i cant watch this without bursting into tears

[noypipride3]

I could be wrong but it's about life and how life should be cherished because death is inevitable. We shouldn't fear death but accept it as a fact of life. Thus, we should live life to the fullest doing what we love. At the same time , we should cherish our love ones each day because nothing lasts.

[Teimlia]

That's exactly what I came away with when I saw the movie. Benjamin did so much more than most would ever do in their lives-- I really thought I should do more after doing this.

[jackieloven123]

maybe its when u love someone...its for life, no matter how old u are or were u come from or wat u look like....idk maybe not ;: [

[jquenichet]

I'm the kind of person who likes to think a lot and I figure a movie with this much emotion should have a moral or lesson or a theme but I can't find one. I really want to like this movie but I honestly don't understand the point. Can someone explain it to me?

[JokerofNYC]

the greatest ending of all time to any movie. i mean its just so sad and makes you see life in a different way.

[nissanforever]

It is one amazing movie a pure masterpeiece on of the greatest movies of all time

[helenasmildkingdom]

i like the movie ending better where it shows the clock and has the narrating during the baby ben scenes, but this one still makes me cry! :)

[doxie161]

this movie was amazing and it is my favorite movie ending it makes me cry so much

[texsora]

this was def. the saddest ending of all time. i cry every time i watch it ... i mean its a good cry for sure but still... the montage, or last farewell to each character is just soo touching after watching the movie.

[bamakawam87]

this was the best movie i ever watched....very sad ending though, but a lot of us saw it coming as soon as we knew what this was about. the ending really makes you think about life...

[canergnc]

What is the name of song in 0:53

[SoraTheEntertainer]

I nearly cried during this final part......"some people have ear for music, some are artists".....that's it for me......

[BendyCowgirl]

me too, "some people are dancers" got me

[NickJonas990]

i agree, the "some people have an ear for music, some are artists" and the "some are born to sit by the river" are what got me

[Jm4nu3l]

mmmmmm :(

[cooldude333]

To be honest, I would rather grow older that regress to youth.

Being young ain't that peachy.

[tuhreesah]

What's this song called? I need to have it...

[munkieb0mb]

Bethena - Scott joplin

It only sounds pretty on piano...

[LexingtonAR]

whats the name of the song that plays in the beginning?

[CHANGACK]

How the fuck didnt this win the oscar of the year holyshit

[jakeryan37]

[haluguyz]

[gtmunn]

I believe she is english mate ;)

[haluguyz]

[AceOfHearts101]

she was my favorite!

"some people swim" that was my favorite part in the whole movie.

[MystiqueEyes]

some ppl have an ear for music = yeh me. perfect ending, basically anyone can relate to it.

[RateOf2hFtw]

:( its sad

[AnotherStupidGamer]

Did he die?

[bluto1992]

Yes but it wasn't the most heart-breaking scene of the movie. The most heart-breaking scene involves his biological father.

[MAREKGERHARDT]

There are so many but you're right about that one too.

[1luvDIPSET]

whats the name of the song playing while he's tlking about all the different people?

[BethGoth15]

@bananamama5 That's what my boyfriend said and Forrest Gump is one of his favourites. (I haven't seen it :P) And it's the same writer, so that explains the similarities :D

[joluh]

That last speach always gets me so bad <3

[loochacha]

[Mevlevi1207]

[guitar966]

whats the name of the final song??

[ghosttheguy]

" Some people were born to sit by a river, some get struck by lightning, some have the ear for music, some are artist, some swim, some know buttons, some know shakespeare, some are mothers, and some people dance ! "

Best Movie Ending Of Al History (^_^)

[abacado1]

Its mature, thoughtful and strangely happy. Brilliant movie

Hope Fincher and Pitt keep working together to keep producing amazing films like this, fight club and seven.

[coolburz786]

i feel like crying everytime i watch the end

[weeoo86]

I liked it when Chad Vader did a li'l spoof of it:)

[pmjessica]

i got too see this movie i heard its really good!

[cBdot17]

I think it should end with him being a 6' tall baby, cause he was born an old man the size of a baby.

[kitfisto522]

in the book hes born a 6 foot tall old man with a long beard, then slowly just becomes a baby

[simontimes]

what's the name of the song that started at 1:57 ?
