What’s Coming to Plex in February 2023, Including ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,’ ‘If Beale Street Could Talk,’ More

Based on a story by F. Scott Fitzgerald, the now-iconic film “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” will come to Plex in February. In the movie, Button (played by Brad Pitt) is aging in reverse, when he meets a young girl. He waits for her to grow into a woman (Cate Blanchett) in the hopes they can spend some time together when they are both of comparable “ages.”
