Learn to run on the thorny road

On the face of it, the film is about how two people deal with their feelings, and there are many obstacles, and the finale is tragic. But at a deeper level, the movie also seems to be talking about an American dream, not everyone can make it happen, and it also shows that the American dream isn't even real, but Gatsby's perseverance with the dream in the movie is what makes the dream come true. People are moved, and his self-discipline is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

I like this movie very much. I have also read this book. The adaptation is very good. The content is almost the same as the original. It is a sad and complicated story. Added some small details in it, such as the choice of music, adding modern music, including rap songs, to make it fresh and interesting.

The Great Gatsby quotes

  • Nick Carraway: There was music from my neighbor's house through those summer nights. In his enchanted gardens, men and girls came and went like moths, among the whispering and the champagne and the stars. I believe that few people were actually invited to these parties. They just went. They got into automobiles that bore them out to Long Island, and somehow they ended up at Gatsby's door. Come for the party with a simplicity of heart that was it's own ticket of admission.

  • Tom Buchanan: That dog's a bitch!
