Brigadier Gutsy she said it, go read the response up there and yes I am but I don't know why you bring this to conversation. The Great Gatsby is one of my favorite American books and everytime I read it I discover something new but I never make the mistake of comparing the book to the movie.
Can we just appreciate how cute Nick was when he was showing off his invitation to the staff like “I got my invite!! Hey look at my invite!!”. It’s so pure and awkward
Penny for my thot He did it because it’s polite to show ur invitation. It shows how polite and innocent Nick is compared to the other elite who have no morals and just shows up to Gatsbys property

Why are you attacking book thief for? All they said is that the scene make them smile.That should be a good thing.(I'm looking at you Brigadier Gusty.)
That would have been awesome! Sadly in todays day and age with social media and everything, it literally would have been IMPOSSIBLE to keep the secret of who it was, especially with someone as big as DiCaprio playing him. Out of hundreds of extras and film crew, the beans would have been spilled eventually. I like your thinking though
When I saw this movie in the theatre, the only thought I think anyone had was that no one but someone with Leo's career could sell that kind of a movie entrance.
“His smile was one of those rare smiles you may come across 4 or 5 times in life. It seemed to understand and believe in you just as you would want to be understood and believed in.” Probably my favorite quote from The Great Gatsby.
Sam Smigla sorry this is just a small section that my teacher went over in class, so my understanding of it may be incorrect. Nick mentions “New Haven” multiple times and how his family has been going there for generations. “New Haven” means Yale, and the fact that someone as rich as Tom (who has enough money to throw around that even people at Yale disdain his money spending ways) willingly married Daisy (Nick’s cousin), shows that his family has standing in America’s elite. If you convert the cost of his housing rent over to modern day currency, it isn’t by any means expensive. So that and Nick’s overall attempts to “humble” himself may hide these subtle hints. I also don’t quite remember anyone calling Nick out for being “poor” in the book, again, feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.
@@MoonLaceyButterfly Nick Carraway is the grandson, or grand grandson, of a new money entrepeneur that made a lot of money in the hardware business back in the midwest; even more, Nick's family does have a lot of money, but never as much as the Buchanan's.

Well, technically Gatsby did not die from a party but rather from well ya know, love (probably a big spoiler, but I suppose most of us here have already read the book or finished the movie)

The dissonance between the Electronic music and the classical set makes it absolutely magic and unique, I LOVE IT
This movie was excellent at taking a classical period and giving it a modern context with the music and other things. It wasn’t just about style, I think it made it much more digestible for a general audience
@@androlibre9661 Not sure how the music could equate to a "dumbing down." If a Great Gatsby film had been made in the 1920s it would've featured "modern music", ie jazz. And if Baz Luhrman's goal was to make the audience connect with or experience the movie in a way a 1920s audience might've connected with a GG film made back then, without removing it from its time period, then I think his choice was perfect. If he'd made it with period correct music it might've ended up feeling like a normal period piece, which Great Gatsby in the context of when it was written is not.
@@okitasan ....Its dumbed down because modern audiences need their food ground up into baby food to digest a time period piece so they use modern crap music. Yes if made in the 1920 they would have used modern music of the day......BECAUSE it was the 1920s ...the book was written in the1920s ...its a 1920s story....the Jazz Age. Jazz is almost the theme of the story. Jazz tore down the social constructs of the time which gave way for a story like The Great Gatsby to even exist. That's the point of the story. Old Money and New Money ...social standing of the time being eroded but still existing but to what degree. To take Jazz out the story...really ruins the story. To me it sucked...took me out the movie...and I never even finished watching it because I know the story, read the book, knew how it was going to end BUT visually it looked so nice I was rather excited to go see it. The minute I heard IZZO in the first act I walked out the theatre.
@@androlibre9661It’s not historically accurate and I typically prefer that but I must admit the music really gave a more visceral and instinctive impression of how wild and hedonistic the parties were. Admittedly if they stuck with jazz it would have given a classier, more inhibited feeling since that’s just how most of us grew up.
I love the over-editing and brilliant narration that the director implements into this scene. This movie was criticized for it and the use of modern music but I think it suits the roaring 20's perfectly.
More so than any other movie interpretation of a book (of which I am often dubious, as a great fan of classic literature), this movie owned the feeling, the atmosphere, the electrifying ambiance of the book. It couldn’t have been done if it was letter-perfect historical accuracy, they needed to blow everything WAY out of proportion to capture that same feeling of wonder and lavish splendor. Brilliant.
@Ks-101 And you probably refrence the great Gatsby when you think of the 1920s despite it having little to anything to do with the era. The vehicles, hardly any were even enclosed. They all look European middle end models, America was not even close to that.
It’s so interesting how they managed to make this party have the rythm and flow of the 20’s but with modern music to make the sound more fascinating to the audience. A lot of people actually hate the modern music in this movie, but i think it fits more because it’s more out of sync with the style, and that aids in Nick’s experience when he was in uncomfortable or unusual circumstances.
Right - i think the soundtrack is perfect because it helps put a modern audience into the period by providing context via association. Period jazz music may not have done that. Modern club music (with a jazzy twist) perfectly establishes the vibe. We feel exactly what Nick would feel.
@@okitasanand, like I said previously, it helps us stand in Nick’s shoes as a narrator and surrogate for the audience. By getting a full experience through the soundtrack, the audience has an easier time relating to him
Im one of the ones that HATED the music in the his. It totally takes me out of the story. Like I could of understood if they took the music of the 1920s..and tweaked it a bit for a modern sound but they went full electro glitter techno rave with it. To me that's just corny
I don't understand why everyone's criticising the music, I think it compliments the scene. It wouldn't have had the same energy with music from the 20s in my opinion
@@ryanfink4206 They did, they just didn't have a lot of electronic in it. The focus was more on mixing in hip hop with swing. The reason was hip hop evokes the same feelings in us today as jazz and swing did back in the 20s. That feeling of wild, provocative, underground music.
Samatar Salah ...a month ago a huge abandoned mansion in my area was "rented" for a night and a massive party like this was thrown. It was absolutely crazy like this.
This movie was / is utterly underrated. _Gatsby_ must be the only story that demands lurid and gaudy style when in cinema form. I love the amalgamation of '20's and '00's music. _Man,_ I wish I had gone to the cinema to see this. It's also one of those rare films that endures repeat viewings.
"He smiled understandingly - much more than understandingly. It was one of those rare smiles with a quality of eternal reassurance in it, that you may come across four or five times in life. It faced - or seemed to face - the whole external world for an instant, and then concentrated on you with an irresistible prejudice in your favor. It understood you just so far as you wanted to be understood, believed in you as you would like to believe in yourself, and assured you that it had precisely the impression of you that, at your best, you hoped to convey."
To use modern music in a scene such as this is quite genius, even if some people would scoff at it. By doing that, the movie brings the party closer to the modern audience that is watching the movie, making us feel the thrill that the party-goers of that time would have at such a lavish party, as were held in the 20's.
The Great Gatsby was one of my favorite books that taught me the story of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, to the point that I looked into Zelda's works too. I loved the "mad genius" dichotomy between F. Scott, who protected his wife at all costs, and Zelda, a mad writing firefly. The old version wasn't as fun, but Leo Dicaprio did an amazing job giving Gatsby justice here. And Nick Holloway is one of my favorite male literary heroes.
The whole time i was just thinking, the people that would have partied like this in that time are probs all dead now :( I’d better enjoy my youth like them
Well Olivia De Havilland is a living mythological creature and she did mention she went to a crazy flapper party in the 20s ala F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald when she was a tween. She also the greatest living A list movie queen of the 30s.
Yeah I agree 100% with you. I’m 20. Turning 21 in September. I have loved my life so far. Sure, it hasn’t been perfect, but nothing is, so I just gotta keep going and trying. Life is about being happy. First and foremost. Nothing else. Anyone trying to convince you otherwise has not figured it out yet. I wish everyone all the very best.
Yup all gone this was 70 years before d 1990s n d 1990s are already d past nothing new under d Sun in 2100 I doubt people will know who Michael Jackson was or anny famous celebrity from our time
the 70s version is bring a genuine 20s atmosphere from the novel the 2013 version is like "Hey deco style is super wild, and we can make it relatable in the next 20s in the coolest way possible"
Just knowing the true friendship that Leo and Tobey have in real life added another layer of believability when watching the friendship of Gatsby and Nick in this movie all the more remarkable and genuine :D
This is simply amazing. Baz Luhrman is to directing what Hans Zimmer is to music. And I’m just so in love with Jordan, she’s just so unbelievably beautiful and overhuman.
the introduction of gatsby was so well directed… the purposeful angling of the camera away from his face was pure genius. really alludes to just how mysterious he really is
The scene (and every other scene where they pretty much interact) where Gatsby and Nick first meet is way funnier when you keep in mind the theory people have about Nick not being completely straight.
that ending quote is so powerful to me, knowing that the great gatsby is supposed to reflect on america as a whole and even at symbolism for gatsby as america
The story is set in 1922, so much of the "flapper style" stuff was in an embryonic stage. I could see Jordan being a flapper but not Daisy. Not all women (especially young women) had short hair and those sequined fringe dresses were not in style yet.
I'm using this scene for an English essay, and I've just realised that the line "a little party never killed nobody" foreshadows that everyone's recklessness did indeed result in the death of Myrtle. I'm not sure if that was deliberate, but judging by how deliberate everything was in this film, that was a very clever addition by Luhrmann.
One of the greatest books I’ve read and such a great adaption in film Leo was incredible as Jay gatsby. Also ngl kinda got inspired by gatsby everyone wants to live the American dream
I remember seeing this scene for the first time in 9th grade English class and let’s just say it made me realize how much I love extravagant parties and now as a 24 year old, I party hard
One of the most visually stunning films to ever exist.
I have? My comment remains the same? XD
Brigadier Gutsy she's talking about the visual of the MOVIE so even if she read the book your comment doesn't make sense.

Can we just appreciate how cute Nick was when he was showing off his invitation to the staff like “I got my invite!! Hey look at my invite!!”. It’s so pure and awkward

Naive
That's why I love Nick.
When it comes to parties like these, you’re usually supposed to present your invitation to the man at the door before you’re let in.
Penny for my thot He did it because it’s polite to show ur invitation. It shows how polite and innocent Nick is compared to the other elite who have no morals and just shows up to Gatsbys property
I attended one of these parties. A local man saw the movie and wanted to throw one. He rented out a local ballroom and spent thousands remaking this. It was heavenly

yea
yes! Gorgeous
RIGHT
Yes, and the exact one he makes😁
They should of had the actor who played Gatsby as a surprise until the film came out
Lucas Macfarlane but the problem is, a lot of people probably went to see it because it was Leo. That’s a good idea tho

Only would work for a certain few who watched it on a whim.

“His smile was one of those rare smiles you may come across 4 or 5 times in life. It seemed to understand and believe in you just as you would want to be understood and believed in.”
Probably my favorite quote from The Great Gatsby.
And my favourite moment and scene in the film when Leo is smiling to Nick.
It's interesting how they undersized Nick's wealth in the movie. He isn't by any means poor, he's old money and very rich.
His parents were upper middle class, he was on his own and not making much money.

@@mxxnlightmar He's got connections, the respectable family but with no money, that's why he's apparently high on Tom's social ladder anyhow.
So we’re nearing the next roaring 20s and if you think we aren’t going to party like this you’re sadly mistaken old sport.

the 2013 version is like "Hey deco style is super wild, and we can make it relatable in the next 20s in the coolest way possible"
Leo’s had a great and wonderful and fantastic leap from being the heartthrob of the 90’s to a serious as well as academy award winning actor
Just knowing the true friendship that Leo and Tobey have in real life added another layer of believability when watching the friendship of Gatsby and Nick in this movie all the more remarkable and genuine :D
I don't like parties, but I would go to this one
Same
The scene where Gatsby finally appears was so well executed omg
The part where he lifts the glass and smiles is the way I want to enter heaven
Can we all take a moment to be happy that Peter finally got to the drinks before they were empty this time?
The 2010’s were like the roaring 20’s and now the 2020’s are like the Great fucking Depression 😩
This is simply amazing. Baz Luhrman is to directing what Hans Zimmer is to music. And I’m just so in love with Jordan, she’s just so unbelievably beautiful and overhuman.
Elizabeth ❤️❤️❤️
the introduction of gatsby was so well directed… the purposeful angling of the camera away from his face was pure genius. really alludes to just how mysterious he really is
i wish i cooked on my ap lang exam like i did with this comment. dear lord
Forget all this music festivals.. Let's all just throw a huge Gatsby party. Everybody welcomed to go.
The scene (and every other scene where they pretty much interact) where Gatsby and Nick first meet is way funnier when you keep in mind the theory people have about Nick not being completely straight.
Just me who thought " oh look isn't that spider man and jack ? " haha
Spider-Man noir
Same!
No surprise that the same director from this movie also directed Elvis. They both have the same style and energy and is the reason why I love both.
And Moulin Rouge and Romeo+Juliet, Baz gives it to you no less than 100!! Every 👏🏾Time! The immaculate movie soundtrack collection, having all four. ❤
"Alone and a little embarrassed, I decided to get *roaring* drunk."
I see what you did there.
that ending quote is so powerful to me, knowing that the great gatsby is supposed to reflect on america as a whole and even at symbolism for gatsby as america
the rhapsody in blue build up to gatsby's reveal is so great omg
Back when we knew how to party with class and style. No clue if we’ll ever reach this point again in history…
The story is set in 1922, so much of the "flapper style" stuff was in an embryonic stage. I could see Jordan being a flapper but not Daisy. Not all women (especially young women) had short hair and those sequined fringe dresses were not in style yet.
The balance between new and old music in this movie was so satisfying
I'm using this scene for an English essay, and I've just realised that the line "a little party never killed nobody" foreshadows that everyone's recklessness did indeed result in the death of Myrtle. I'm not sure if that was deliberate, but judging by how deliberate everything was in this film, that was a very clever addition by Luhrmann.
The production design of this movie is fantastic and authentic.
This scene is an absolute masterpiece
Ugh. His introducing though, absolutely phenomenal👏👏👏
This a prom theme choice at my school and after watching this, I definitely want to relive the 20’s 💕
I still can't imagine a party like that happening in the 20s, I mean, this is so great and awsome !!!
The last minute of the clip had me with a growing smile. Like I just knew once I heard Nick being addressed to as Old Sport. XD
Crazy rich asians: we have the most extravagant par-
Gatsby: Hold my champagne old sports
*This is how we’re all gonna party when the pandemic ends.*
POV the teacher steps outside for 2 seconds:
Literally iconic when gatsby lifts his cup
The fashion is absolutely stunning 😍
If only a fraction of those people had come to Gatsby’s funeral.
I'mma watch this in 2019 new years Eve for 2020 :)
did u watch it
have u
me too
2:00 "Alone and a little embarassed, I decided to get roaring drunk" is 100% a vibe
One of the greatest books I’ve read and such a great adaption in film Leo was incredible as Jay gatsby. Also ngl kinda got inspired by gatsby everyone wants to live the American dream
No other actor could smile the same way Leo smiled as Gatsby
Just how gorgeous Jordyn though. She's got classic beauty that can rock at both our present time and 200 years ago.
Right about Jordyn, wrong about how long ago it was
The the 20s nowadays are much different than this...
We can’t even party. Everyone is quarantined and social distancing.
Without a doubt one of the coolest scenes in cinematic art form
3:54 Spider-Man 2 moment
Damn it's true!
Carroway: Hey wait! come back I wanna marry Jordan!
Gatsby: *smiles* Heya old sport.
Carroway: Aaaand I'm gay...
I remember seeing this scene for the first time in 9th grade English class and let’s just say it made me realize how much I love extravagant parties and now as a 24 year old, I party hard
Even with all of Gatsby's faults, I can't help, but love him.
2:22 Everyone when the teacher leaves the classroom
Now this is a damn party...
My goal in life is to throw a New Year’s party like this! I don’t care if I have to rent a mansion! I want it to be so big celebrities show up!
God 2020 was such a shitty year that this exactly was the type of party we needed to end it.
