Visual feast as expected

When I first saw the preview and after I actually watched it, I felt that the picture was completely in line with the imagination when I read the book. Coincidentally, it was basically the same as what I thought. But Leonardo didn't conquer me. He didn't show Gatsby's inner pride, restraint, and passion. Instead, he always made me think he was a loser. Daisy did not exude elegance and fragrance from the inside out as she imagined, even if she was covered in the smell of money, she was charming. Because that has to be the case for these stories to exist.
The movie restores the novel to a large extent, except that it does not point out what Gatsby thinks of Daisy after contacting her. With a confused look, the happiness in front of him seemed so unreal, Gatsby couldn't help but wonder. It's been almost five years, and I know that the imaginary Daisy is no longer Daisy herself. This illusion is constantly vivid and perfect through his imagination, surpassing It surpassed everything and surpassed Daisy. He threw himself into it with a passion for creation, constantly beautifying and perfecting it. In fact, no amount of passion and innocence can match the longing soul.” In fact, Gatsby also understood at the end that he could not fail to understand that Daisy was no longer the original Daisy. But these lines and plot directors cut them off and could only rely on Leonardo's acting skills to express them. It is conceivable that every time I see Leonardo, I can't help but burst into laughter, there is nothing I can do.
In fact, on the other hand, it restores the novel, but apart from the original monologues, it does not express anything more profound.
But as far as my own movie-watching experience is concerned, the visual feast presented in front of me also continued to establish the status of the novel "The Great Gatsby" in my mind.

    Gatsby is a prosperous world with the same innocent and desperate attitude towards feelings as before. I don't know how he keeps that innocent heart? Not seen in the movie. The final picture is really ironic, the ugliness of human nature is vividly expressed

    What makes Gatsby sad is that he is not a vulgar person at all, but for a simple faith, he is desperately trying to please this vulgar world-he can hug the beautiful woman and hug his former lover by the way. Isn't the Daisy old Zhuhuang Huang?
