The Curious Case of Benjamin Button English difficulty

Is The Curious Case of Benjamin Button good for learning English?

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a strong option for learners who already feel comfortable with English and want a more demanding challenge. Some parts may require more focus, but the main story remains easy to follow. Learners will hear plenty of useful natural English, but some lines may still require a second listen. At an average of around 78 words per minute, the dialogue is generally manageable, though some exchanges require more attention. For learners around B2/C1, this can be a practical choice for building confidence with more complex narratives.
