more than just love
The great Gatesby—As the hero of the story, he placed deep emotions on the original author, Fitzgerald, and the author dramatically beautified his emotional experience and poured it into the character of Gatsby. Gatsby went from being a poor boy to a rich man by his own hard work, and then turned around to recover his first love, Daisy. Although his money came from wrong, the first thing he had to do after success was to regain the attention of his lover. When Nick threaded his needle and arranged for him to meet with Daisy, Gatesby's panic returned to his youth. In fact, the biggest motivation for Gatesby's struggle comes from his love for Daisy, or the belief in this pure love itself. He is good at creating hope for himself in desperate difficulties and persevering until he succeeds. In the most difficult and most difficult moments, what supports him is the love for Daisy. This idealistic love has become his last faith." As long as I have money, she will come back", this is the obsession of how young and crazy. The reason why Gatsby is a great Gatsby is not only because of his unimaginable success and money (to use a popular Chinese phrase, it is called a counterattack), but because of his persistent guardianship of the pure love of his youth However, this kind of external appearance may be filthy, but deep inside is full of purity, which constitutes Gatsby's real greatness. Nick said: "They are all bad guys, and they all add up to you." This is Nick's only compliment to Gatsby, and it is also the author's interpretation of Gatsby's "great" by Nick. At this moment, the author is Gatsby. He clearly knows that Daisy has already deteriorated and turned into a worldly weak woman, but still refuses to give up his obsession with pure love, knowing that Daisy is unlikely to go with him. But still hopefully waiting for the miracle to appear, knowing that he was shot to death in the joy of hope. In fact, Gatsby’s love is no longer Daisy, What he loves is pure love itself; what he persistently pursues is not necessarily the Daisy he loves, but the feeling of pure love. This idealism itself constitutes Gatsby's tragedy. Regardless of the so-called disillusionment of the American dream or the lost generation, Gatsby's most moving thing is actually the disillusionment of love. To this day, Gatsby’s practical significance is still the same. In the past, entertainment is supreme, entertainment to death, and any pure and beautiful things can be used to make fun. Entertainment, love is often laughed as "If you are serious, you will lose." "Diaosi", "Gaofushuai", "Goddess", "Hehe", "Daddy", "Green Tea Bitch" and so on. We are familiar with vocabulary mocking the final innocence. In the United States, Gatsby's birthplace, sex is easier than love. Nowadays, there are a few people who have the courage to love Gatsby as desperately, if love is a dream, I'll make the dream come true, so today, Gatsby is still great. Many people actually still believe in love, but they are used to self-protection and control, so they don’t love it much anymore. The degeneration of the ability to love can only be compensated by sex. The openness and boldness of modern people, on the contrary, reflects the timidity of the entire world.
Daisy-Gatsby's incarnation of truth, goodness and beauty, the heroine of the story, is definitely not a bad woman. She is just a woman. This point is more profound in the original work than in the movie. Young Daisy has the same girlish feelings as most girls. Perhaps the original love was really pure and passionate. Perhaps the painless marriage with Tom made him never forget Gatsby. Perhaps the one who loved Gatsby deep in her heart. Gatsby alone. However, as an ordinary woman, as she grows older, her pursuit of love gradually shifts from a sensational type to a value-based type. This is a woman’s instinct and nature, and there is nothing to blame—though this is often blamed by men. Condemned in anger. Daisy is good everywhere. It’s just that she is a woman. This is a great sadness in life. Girls understand it, but boys can’t figure it out. They always use their male linear thinking to understand women. In the end, they can only No favorite like Gatsby. The so-called "getting married is often not the favorite, but the most suitable" argument seems to be the indoctrination of young men and women, but in fact it is just to find an excuse for the pain of not getting true love, and let the younger generation repeat it. Own sorrow, thereby proving yourself right. For them, Gatsby is more like a negative textbook. The father will say to his son: "Don't be serious about women, be careful of being played by the goddess." The mother will also say to his daughter: "Be clean and self-loving, and don't be fooled by men." Now." Modern people live more rationally than Gatsby’s jazz era, and are better at protecting themselves. What they love most is that they have become a consensus and be called truth. But the truth comes down to the truth. Even if you fully understand these truths when you are young, you may not really be immune to love. In this regard, women are more likely to be injured than men and are more likely to trip over the same stone twice, but once a man After being injured one or two times, you won't be too serious and devoted. So, in the end, Daisy chose to run away indifferently, let Gatsby take the blame and then abandon her. This is a woman's correct choice, nothing wrong. This is a human sorrow in itself—this is exactly what the author Fitzgerald has experienced. What is expressed is the expression of these thoughts and feelings that make the great Gatsby's work, like Gatsby's character, truly become The Great.
Tom——As the husband of the heroine, Tom is a typical representative of high society, rich and handsome. The red flag at home does not fall, the colorful flags are fluttering outside the home, he uses material to support his wife, and makes up for the emotional emptiness with the mistress outside. Although his wife knew that she had derailed, she understood that she was pretending to be confused, and maintained the stability of the family with a strong smile. The reason why Tom dared to do so was mainly because of his confidence in his financial strength. , Money can make a wife dare not say anything. But Tom is not a heinous bad man, he just follows the worldly habits of society and enjoys the benefits of such worldly habits. Especially when he saw that his mistress was hit to death, although he immediately answered the police that he did not know her, he couldn't help but shed a tear. Tom is also a person with affection, and even, he may have been as affectionate as Gatsby; maybe he loves no one, only himself, only his origin and wealth, but he is by no means a heinous person, he is just a Ordinary innocence has been extinguished by secular men, and most boys are possible; will come to this point-this again sets off Gatsby's "great Gatsby"
Nick-The story begins with a monologue: I was within and without, simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life. This is the monologue of Nick as the story narrator and the second male number one. Throughout the story, Nick is both in it and detached from it; facing this glorious and feasting world, he is both obsessed with it and deeply repelled. The perspective of the first person "I" in the original novel makes the whole story narrative full of sensibility. Although the film is a form of full-perspective expression, the large sections of the original text and Nick's monologue are interspersed with it, and there is still a kind of interrogation. The effect of making viewers moved by it. Nick's thoughts and feelings are actually an objective and non-perceptual analysis of the author Fitzgerald jumping out of the story itself and looking at his relationship objectively and rationally. After Fitzgerald himself became famous, it was not like what he wrote. Gatesby went back to his first love like that, but chose to marry and have children normally. His persistent desire for love, especially innocence, is pinned in his literary creations. Gatesby is his incarnation, and Nick is his view of love. Spokesperson. Nick always affirms Gatesby, so he said, "They all add up to no more than you." This is a heartfelt affirmation, and it is also the aspiration of the author Fitzgerald himself. The author is an ordinary person, so he has no courage. Such a desperate effort to recover the "she" in his heart, that's why he created the "amazing" character image of Gatesby with deep feelings. The author himself did not dare to do it, so let the characters in the pen do it, and through Nick's Acura praises this pure and deep love, and writes the tragedy of Gatesby's destruction objectively and truthfully. The author knows that this kind of love will surely bring moths to the fire, but he still praises this kind of love and calls it the great gatesby.
What is so great about Gatsby
The author once read the original novel ten years ago. Today, ten years later, when I watch an adapted movie, I know many things. Although I understand the truth, I still can't control my heart. Before the age of 20, I used to surpass my peers in rational play and emotions, to protect myself from being sincere, to avoid Gatsby’s destruction from happening to me, and used the post-90s label to disguise as "If you are serious, you lose." It looks like, falling in love is just "practicing love", why not take it seriously, after a few years living a workaholic single life. The idealism in my heart has been protected in this way, because I have long understood this truth: the pure love of idealism can hurt people too much and too deeply. However, just before I know it, my mind that my own rationality has deviated from the normal track, but I don’t know it at all. It’s only when I realize that it’s too late, knowing that it’s hard to come together in life in the future, but I still hold on to it. Do 100% efforts with 1% hope. In fact, everyone has a Gatsby in their hearts, but they also understand that everything Gatsby does is what we dare to think but dare not do. Most people only dare to choose "I miss each other than I miss", Gatesby's dedication to love It is a kind of courage, which hardly anyone has in reality. This is Gatsby's greatness, because we will not be great Gatsby.
Modern Gatesby may choose to be friends with their Daisy for a lifetime, because lovers will break up, but friends will not, friends, but the safest distance between men and women, only friends will not lose each other, in each After each family, they will not forget each other and allow each other to remain in their own lives. This is not infidelity to their respective husbands or wives, but because most people choose the most suitable instead of the most suitable. The one you love is married, and for the one you love the most, perhaps meeting each other is just to say goodbye.
