The Great Gatsby By F. Scott Fitzgerald - 1527 Words

I already knew the Director Baz Luhrmann’s makings of The Great Gatsby wasn t going to be perfect, I like the movie because of the action and I dislike reading. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s great American novel is a basis of most American teenagers’ introduction into literature, it’s as if it was specifically built to resist filmmakers. The Great Gatsby book gave more feeling and relations of life than the movie. That a film is an interpretation of a book, but it missed a lot of things that could have been added in someone. The Great Gatsby book and movie has a lot of differences, but also a lot of the same things of it. In the The Elevator Scene it was different. I felt as It’s an American Shakespeare. There are similarities in the type of way†¦show more content†¦In the film, this becomes Nick making out with Myrtle’s sister and waking up in his underwear on his own front porch at his house. When he’s singing these bombastic praises of Gatsby, it was a wonder of how much of his description is affected by his affection for Gatsby, and by bringing up this potential question of sexual preference. Its not the main plot, but it could have helped the movie to go into more depth of the friendship of Gatsby and Nick which is kinda the heart of the story. Daisy isn t that cool and innocent like she seem to be. In the book, Daisy went to go see her daughter when Gatsby comes to the Buchanans’ home for lunch. She plays with the child, say how beautiful she is, and then sends her away with her nanny. The child not a part of her soul, something most mothers can’t bear to live without. Instead, she goes to her plaything, and she comes out when it suits her and goes back to her mother when Daisy is done. Compared to the moment into the film might have made Daisy unlikable, which wouldn’t work for the director of the movie set up of the big moment in which Tom finds out Gatsby and Daisy have been canoodling at Gatsby’s mansion. Then it would have made the scene more true and far less wishy washy and unbelievable. When Daisy says she loved Tom and she loved Gatsby, Gatsby’s world was like destroying by Daisy leaving out like she did. Like it was weird to think that how could she love both of them? Could it be, she’s not
