Regarding the movie itself, because I have not seen any previous versions, what about the movie this time, I can only say that it is too fancy, the focus is wrong, gorgeous and empty. Maybe I love this book too much, and I can accept what it takes to shoot it, but I won't agree with it, because there is no possibility of a complete match. Thinking of a long time ago, when preparing for IELTS speaking, you have to prepare such a question. Tell me about your favorite book. I always say Gatsby, every time before taking an exam, I must carefully sort things like Fitzgerald, lost generation, break of American dream on paper. But once I didn't encounter this problem, my fate with this book ended here. I think it has some special meaning to me. Even though I can't remember the original intention with the passage of time, it is a pity that I can never go back to the age when I first read this book. You can't repeat the past. Nick said. Of course I can, Gatsby replied.
So Gatsby wanted to go back in time. He rewrote his resume, the more he said, the less truthful he was. He became another person completely for Daisy, the rich Gatsby, the mysterious Gatsby, and the Gatsby who is no one. But he didn't expect that it was not just him who was changing, but Daisy would eventually become a worldly beauty. He poured eternal goodwill on the world, but in the end he didn't get the slightest return.
In my imagination, Daisy should be the standard American girl with golden waves. She is beautiful, sweet and playful. She talks casually, which can also arouse ambiguity, but her voice is full of money. She is the perfect untouchable in Gatsby's memory, but if it is truly untouchable, that would be great. Daisy said that when she had seen everything through, she didn't know that someone on the other side had built a castle for her and sang songs every day, just so that she could come to participate in this slim possibility once. Daisy said Gatsby, what Gatsby? At the time, I believe that at that moment she thought of the past and felt a little regretful. When Daisy said we are talking about the future, she had long understood that there was no such thing as a future. She doesn't believe that anyone can love her without asking for anything. She is beloved by the supreme love, bewildered but can't help but take advantage of it. She was supposed to be the green light on the other side, but she really and quickly dragged Gatsby into the wrong track. But I don't hate her at all, she said she was very sad, she had never seen such a beautiful shirt.
And the green light in the calm and dark night is always far away and untouchable, just like everything we think hasn’t changed, it’s still there, but it’s never available again.
There are only pursuers and suitors, busy people and tired people in the world. So what is finally gained is only the beginning of loss? I don't know, this topic is too heavy in May. Say something lighthearted. The beauty of May is that you know that in the not-too-distant future, the air will become humid, the fine weather will increase, and the length of the sun will double as long as possible. And this is probably something that seldom can surely believe, among the many impossibility. I’m not sure that it’s too tiring. Whether the discounted vegetables in the supermarket are sold out, or who will be with you in the future are more or less meaningful and have to be considered.
Ah, by the way, you actually don't know if you really got it. What does it mean to get it? When Daisy agreed to marry Gatsby, he might think he finally got her, but he was only betrayed and abandoned again. In my opinion, the eternal meaning is never lost, so Gatsby's death can be regarded as one kind to some extent. It's not bad to think so, because there is no possibility of being hurt again, although it is quite self-deception. So life can only go upstream, struggling forward, until it stops abruptly to a certain extent?
In fact, there are still many moving things. Put an opened box of strawberries in the room, and when you enter the door, the dry air will be filled with the smell of strawberries because of the heating. After taking a shower, put a mango-scented body lotion on your legs. The smell of mangoes wrapped in moisture smells delicious. In the evening, on the way back from the supermarket to my residence, I smelled the familiar smell of burnt straw, as if I was back in the country. For another example, the past yesterday was the second anniversary, and it has been taken care of for so long.
Time still passed without a destination.
