It's just an adventure for my married aunt

Before Gatsby died, he knew that the call was not Daisy.

Gatsby heard the phone ringing and was shot at the same time.
He turned his head, not looking at the phone, but looking back at who fired the gun.
He fell into the pool and looked lonely.

Why didn't Gatsby stare at the phone he was waiting for before he died? Even if the green light was far away, he had caught it far away. Gatsby must have understood from the butler's greeting that the call was not Daisy. Gatsby knew from beginning to end that Daisy didn't love him that much. He just doesn't admit it, but he knows.

Daisy's first relationship with him was by no means pure love, but just a fascination with handsome military uniforms and "excellent family background." Gatsby's castle and party, to Daisy, are just another handsome officer's uniform and a distinguished family background.

Daisy and Gatsby met again in the cabin, and it was really tender and touching. However, if there is no Gatsby in the cabin, Daisy will hook up with Danny. Daisy drove away the driver and sighed, "You moved the flower shop". He didn't see Gatsby at that time.

Gatsby knows this clearly. So he must exaggerately decorate the cabin; he must exaggerate the party; he must throw the clothes off the stairs, and Daisy is crying; he emphasizes every extravagant detail because he knows that Daisy likes it. If Gatsby was just a show off by the poor, the guests at the party would not have known Gatsby.

For Daisy, Gatsby is just another adventure for her married aunt. It must not be her first time, nor is it the last time. So that the table at Daisy’s home could not perform the promised showdown; so that Daisy couldn’t tell when she rolled to a downtown hotel; so much so that Gatsby’s anger gave him an excuse to push away; so much so that her husband Tom was so calm. This matter is over, you and Gatsby will go first." It

seems that Daisy tolerates Tom, and Tom knows his wife as well. After the car accident, Tom comforted Daisy in the garden, "It's all gone." Daisy looked back at how tender eyes. It seems to say: "I did something wrong, thank you for forgiving me." In a

more magical scene, Danny called Daisy's house. Although Daisy hadn't left, the butler directly decided it was impossible to discuss. Because there is no need to discuss, the housekeeper has already seen too much and dealt with it, so there is no need to ask for instructions.

The seemingly profound love affair is just an adventure for the married aunt.
Gatsby knew it, but didn't want to believe it.
Until the threshold of death, his expression was lonely.
He in the coffin smiled so reassuringly.
A thing that I knew I didn't want to face finally happened.
Good, good, good.
At that moment, Gatsby must be painful and happy.

    He once owned it, and finally lost it all

    The bystander voiceover maintains the narrative skills of the novel. As far as the film performance skills are concerned, it is very director’s personal style. The psychedelic texture and the lines can still capture the powerless and empty charm of the original work, but for the "great" portrayal, both The real interest gets farther and farther away. The image of green light is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In the 74 version, there is a scene where the hero and heroine is out of reach, which echoes the green light. It is a pity that the new version does not reflect it.
