I have also seen the Little Plum version of Gatsby, but in general, this one will give me a bigger shock to my heart. I have also read the original book. Although I don't remember the specific plot, I vaguely remember that the author's writing is very good.
I saw the greatest romanticism in the world in Gatsby. As Nick said of him: You are stronger than everyone combined. In that filthy American world with despicable human nature, Gatsby is like a shining gold, constantly working hard and climbing in pursuit of his inner beauty. He thought that as long as he stood tall enough, he could realize his dream. But reality and human nature are too cruel. This is evident in the Daisy couple, and poor Gatsby was looking forward to Daisy's arrival until the moment of his death. I think this is also a kind of kindness to him, living for the dream, and dying in the dream.
I didn't quite understand the title of this book before, why Gatsby is so great. Because he made his own way to the upper class from scratch? Because he is loyal to love? No, even in a crowded crowd, you can spot his existence at a glance, which is probably the brilliance of human nature.
I don't actually think Gatsby is pitiful, but I think he's lucky. He has spent his whole life pursuing what he wants, and building his own dreams all his life. It has nothing to do with Daisy, nothing to do with money, but only about himself. Although this dream is as vulnerable as a bubble in front of reality, he should live happily in his limited life, looking at the little green light across the sea and living with hope.
