Disturbing story of idle-rich during the Roaring 20s
This lavish Hollywood treatment of the Classic F. Scott Fitzgerald novel is a visual and acoustic delight. Nelson Riddle’s spellbinding score and the many brilliant camera shots capturing the splendor of an age of excesses and indulgences make for engaging entertainment. Still, the dark story will leave the viewer numb at the eventual (bitter) end. A young Mia Farrow and Robert Redford in the leads, along with excellent performances by Scott Wilson and Bruce Dern, as well as the 70s “femme fatal” staple Karen Black round out the top, with what seems to be hundreds of colorful “flapper” and servant extras in the cast. Everyone fortunate enough to be born or married or mistressed into money is living the “life”, not caring about anyone and anything other than fun, fun, fun.

A series of indiscretions (by just about everyone) culminates in the “just desserts”, and several deaths. The fact that life of the high and mighty seems to go on without skipping a beat, regardless of anyone’s recklessness or involvement, is the tough lesson the author seems to aim for. Without conscience, what have we? All the money will not replace human emotions, though the cash seems to easily take their place. But didn’t we have fun….

I did not enjoy this film
After reading “The Great Gatsby” I looked forward to watching the film. While watching the film I compared it to the book and felt that it was a false representation of Fitzgerald’s classic. Some of the actors/actresses chosen did not portray the characters in the novel (ie Myrtle and Tom). Mia Farrow did a great job and fit Daisy perfectly. But I felt that the film did not touch at all upon many of Fitzgerald’s themes which are very apparent throughout the novel. Coppola transformed the story into mainly a love story between Jay and Daisy…including adding scenes that were not at all in the novel! I also did not feel with any of the characters, they did not come alive and the movie had absolutely no effect on me. But the costumes and setting were true to the novel.
