Me “he loved the idea of her” that was deep. And something I can actually relate to. It’s like missing an Ex but the part you’re missing isn’t there anymore.
@@Kreamations Sometimes it never was there. We can get attached to the words that people say or the things they do and create a fictitious idea of what type of person would say those words or do those things. The words themselves don't define the person, as anyone can say anything. People can act in a manner that isn't true to who they are, as influences change our behavior drastically. To love someone, and not an idea of someone is to comprehend nearly all of their life and what kind of person they are despite influences. We must remain careful not to romanticize ideas due to our perceptions. Just as Daisy sat and talked to Gatsby prior to the war and he fell in love with the idea of who she was with those circumstances at play. Gatsby perceived Daisy as the wonderful, playful person that was going to fit right into his predetermined world. Gatsby didn't truly love Daisy, as he would've needed to allow her to be with Tom if that were the case. Daisy was the person who chose Tom and so loving Daisy would mean loving that she chose Tom after Gatsby went to war. I write this comment for me just as much as I write it for anyone. If anyone has something to add that may benefit me, I beg them to do so. I don't comprehend relationships as well as I hope and it appears the only real way to do so is by interacting with others.
Yeah exactly haven’t read the book but I can see it from the movie. He is trying to tame an animal and fill his house with her. Because he has everything he is left to desire love and warmth but he doesn’t see it as emotion and an equal bond but as an object that can be attained like all his others.
Bazz Luhrmann has a very strong and unique style, and a lot of people don’t appreciate it because it’s unusual and surprising. You’re very right, it’s art. It feels like a dream, takes you in a dream like world for 2 hours
I heard Luhrmann once said that he made movies the critics didn't really like but that the audiences did like. Which always made me think of the scene in his first real movie 'Strictly Ballroom' where Scott defends his improvised dancing by pointing out that the audience liked it and his dancing coach says 'Oh the audience! Well what would they know?'
I love how Gatsby literally had the highest glitz and glamour in his home, but he never noticed the beauty in it until Daisy was there. He always thought of her as his center, the house just added to her beauty. Such amazing love.
It wasnt real love. Not after five years apart. Gatsby loved the idea of Daisy, his impression of her from the past, and made her the symbol of everything he wanted to achieve. He was in love with who she was five years ago, not who she really was by the time they met again.
KP Bennett he was at one point in love with who she was...but time had changed them both as it invariably does and Gatsby fetishized/became obsessed with turning back the clock. We’re all in love with elements of our past.
The fact that this whole cast and crew didn't not win best picture, best actor, best supporting actor, best actress and many other categories is a disgrace to a cinema masterpiece.
It really isn't that great of movie, the visuals are great but except caprio, everyone had a bit of overacting .. just in this scene alone, the lady is overacting so much.
Blishered Crushing no, seriously. The movie really isn’t that good. Haha very funny, it’s great because it has great in the name. As if that joke hasn’t been done a thousand times before. The visuals of this movie are STUNNING. There’s no denying that. But the movie itself has nowhere close to the amount of heart the book had. The only good part of the movie was the ending because it stayed true to how the book wanted you to feel. But I think the biggest problem with the movie is that the characters are so likable. In the book, they’re all very morally grey but in the movie you have no choice but to like everyone and that made it so much worse for me. And the movie focused so much more on making itself look beautiful rather than creating a fleshed-out and dazzling plot alongside it.
Cody Crest you guys forgot how Daisy left at the end of the movie with Tom who used to cheat on her all the time? And Nick was the only person on Gatsbys funeral? Nick isn't a third wheel, actually I think his friendship with Jay is even more important than Jays and Daisys relationship or how people might call it..
Bylee Malox I felt shivers everywhere when this scene came on at the movie was watching at the cinema. This is extraordinary...Lana is a goddess and she deserved this scene and many more
Gatsby's infatuation with Daisy is fueled by his romanticized perception of her and the life he envisions with her. He becomes fixated on the idea of Daisy as a symbol of wealth, status, and beauty, rather than truly understanding her as a complex individual. This idealized version of Daisy ultimately leads to Gatsby's downfall, as he places her on a pedestal and fails to see her flaws and shortcomings. Gatsby's inability to reconcile his idealized vision of Daisy with the reality of who she is highlights the tragic nature of their relationship. His love for the idea of Daisy, rather than the actual person, contributes to his eventual demise and serves as a critique of the shallow and materialistic values of the Jazz Age society depicted in the novel.
In the book she is not so complicated at all she said the best thing for a girl to be is a fool she didn't want to make a choice she wanted what was easy she chose Tom.
I agree with most of what you said, especially about Gatsby putting her on a pedestal. While i believe his love blinded him, I truly believed he loved Daisy. I believe he lives of his love for her which was his downfall. It made him ignore the signs she gave him and in the end his love for her is what killed him. I love your opinion though.
This song practically MADE this scene. I don't think it would have stuck in my memory as much as it did if not for this song. This song is literally what made me want to watch the movie considering I had never read the Great Gatsby before or watched any previous iterations.
@@nikeeweston I mean, Gatsby was no better, lol. Objectifying her, putting her to an insane standard, only wanting her as a trophy and for her wealth, tricked her into bed with him by pretending to be rich, and trying to control her past. Not the type of guy anyone should want to be with, and same for Daisy. None of the characters in the novel were really "good."
@@Someone-ig7we "Tricking her into bed with him by pretending to be rich." That's a bit ironic, as it implies Daisy would only sleep with a rich man. That's definitely not taking a moral high ground either. Also, you act like Gatsby's American Dream journey is a bad thing. Joining the military to become one of many and hide the poverty he was born into (which he can't help obviously). I don't agree with those pieces of the argument. I also feel like I interpret the story differently than you.
The way the song plays as Gatsby throws the shirts on Daisy as she says “Jay, stop it” and laughs hysterically and the way he looks at her like nothing else matters in the world is just so breathtaking. They could have had this. They could have been together forever, but sadly tragedy struck. This movie pays amazing respect to the book. I get carried away watching this scene. It’s just so heartbreaking but it makes you fall in love with their story and their history at the same time. ☹️❤️
This scene was the real ending. Everything after this was written for stupid people who need drama and a tragic ending. For me this was a rags to riches / love story and Gatsby got the girl. The end. Fk the rest of it, made no sense anyway. "here, dude I hate, have my car keys" lmao what? The whole "tell him you didn't love him" thing like I feel like a woman wrote that. What kind of needy fk says that? IDK maybe that's what people were like back then or something. I would have played a little harder to get with Daisy...once he got her, it was over. She was already looking for a reason to leave Tom, the cheating asshole, so all Gatsby had to do was show up to win lmao. Whole ending is bullshit. Realistically Gatsby would have won.
You haven’t read the book perhaps; she deserved better too. Pretty much everyone concerned deserved better than the lives they were living, which in the case of the wealthy… money did precisely nothing to fix. It’s not just a tragedy for those who die in the end, it’s a tragedy because love loses to the “comforts” of money, and callousness and cowardice wins. Daisy was tragically weak, and trapped, and scared… she was a too afraid to leave a five year marriage and daughter with Tom for her true love, Jay Gatz… who regrettably wasn’t a socially candidate during their courtship prior to marrying Tom Buchanan. You want a modern analogue? The character Rachel from The White Lotus, the wife who feels she’ll always “just be a plus one,” to her wealthy husband.
Carey Mulligan was an excellent choice for Daisy. The fact people genuinely despise her is a credit, because that was how F Scott Fitzgerald wrote her.
I love the way Daisy speaks- it's so soft and sweet. With that light airy-ness towards the end of her lines. It reminds me so much of the classic movies from the early-mid 20th century during the Golden Era of film making. It's subtle, but it adds so much to the time and era the film takes place in.
to everyone who said that their love story is beautiful, whatever - it’s not even love. gatsby was just enraptured by everything she represented to him when he was a soldier - wealth, money, fame, perfection. in his head he’s built up this version of her that in reality she will never fulfill. he’s not in love with her - he’s in love with the idea of her.
Isn't that every relationship... you don't really know your family, parents, relatives, spouses even. You love the idea of what you think they represent...
@@LSSYLondon Agreed. Many argue that Jay loved Daisy at one point in time, and that's the idea of her the he loved. But if we have to love a person no matter how much he/she changes, isn't that just similar to loving a different person altogether. Lol
That's the message of the book, and Daisy was just a gold digger. But this scene made it really difficult for anyone that hasn't read the book to understand that, because it was filmed and written so beautifully. In this scene, they truly do seem so in love and it makes it difficult to realize that they are not actually
this seems to prove that Gatsby wasn't in love with her but more of what she represents, " how she catches the light," "how she makes it look so splendid," more on how she looked and how she made the place look than her.
Hes been wanting her for such a long time. He means she completes the picture, she is the masterpiece that brings everything together. That's how in love he was with her but well she is selfish
@@emimh6060 He didn't love her. She was the unobtainable, wealthy "golden girl" that he wanted to possess and be a part of that world. Daisy would never have been able to live up to the fantasy he had created in his mind.
Gatsby doesn’t have many friends. So when he invites Nick to come along with him and Daisy you can sense the gratitude and grace in Gatsby because it’s the first time he ever had a real friend. Someone who always has his back.
I have often heard the saying, "everyone suffers"....the rich, the poor and everyone in between. I actually feel sorrow for almost all the characters. Daisy was born into privilege and Gatsby knew that. He was the one that didn't come back from the war and when Daisy got his letter, she was ready to call off the wedding to Buchanan. She was forced to marry Buchanan as calling off the wedding would have been shocking and social suicide for her and her family. She struggled with the love she had for Gatsby and the life and respectability she built with Buchanan. The story takes place in a different era....divorce was unheard of and brought substantial shame with it. She wanted to run away with Gatsby and that was most likely in her mind the only way they could be together. Buchanan is the one character that I had no sympathy for due to his cruelty to Daisy, Mrytle and really everyone he came in contact with. This is one of my favorite movies and favorite songs as well. Thank you for posting it.
Ms. DK Couldn't have agreed more. Tom is an a-hole in both the book and the movie. His smug face and that he's cheated on Daisy for a sub-standard girl like Myrtle is just beyond disgusting if you ask me.
Tom's only fault is that he thought money could buy everything he wanted, including women, which is true to some extent. Neither Daisy, nor Myrtle were ever with him because of who he is as a person, but because he was rich, which is why I accuse the women in this novel being the cause of most problems. Daisy was like a carefree child who thought there are no consequences or actions, as her husband and family were always there to clean up after her. She never learned in the end either. Gatsby was an idiot for chasing some woman from 5 years ago who was married and had kids who doesn't even care about him enough to attend his funeral. All of this was like a game to Daisy, but full-on serious for Gatsby. I pity such foolish men. Feel bad for Wilson too. He was manipulated, first by his wife, then by Tom and in the end they made him into a guilt-ridden murderer who had to kill himself.
This scene is far by the MOST magical scene I've ever seen in a movie. I can't explain the feelings I feel when I see this scene. And the best part is the feeling is the exact same I felt when I first saw this scene.
Just seeing Gatsby’s genuine smile of joy when he’s throwing the clothes on Daisy, thinking that he got back what he once had is heartbreaking, as well as heartwarming. It’s just amazing to watch the range of emotion in this scene and the innocent joy.
The scene at 1:21- 1:24 is one of the most beautiful scenes in movie history. Gatsby gazing at Daisy as if she is the most intricate part of his world perfectly captures the essence of this movie. A Cinematographic masterpiece, indeed!
What's interesting about this is how the colors and the grandeur of everything, it seems fake somehow. And that contributes to the theme of people putting up facades to the person who they really are inside. Cool book, cool movie.
This scene is one of the best in the movie because all the 3 actors have done a splendid job. It is also one of the most symbolic scenes in the movie because here we really see Gatsby's relationship with Daisy...
this scene is so beautiful and magic. it seems unreal. Gatsby is such an amazing charter and Leo plays him in a perfect way, so handsome, so intense and deep. Gatsby is the man of dreams. Daisy is so lucky. the music is perfect, it seems like also they can listen to it. 1:16 all he have done, he did for her. I wish I could have a Gatsby in my life, I wish I could be Daisy, I wish I could have the hope that him has and the patience and the passion. the end is sad, but really significant.
she cried while saying i have never seen such beautiful shirt before coz now he have everything which he didn't had 5 years before thats y she is sad n staying with tom n also had a kid she move on bt gatsby was still stuck in past
Oh please don't. He objectified her and treated her like a trophy. He didn't care what she thought in the scene where he confronted Tom. He tried to control her past. He's an awful person to love. All of the characters were awful. Please, get yourself someone better :(
I just finished reading the book at school and honestly I fell in love with the book, not only that but the movie as well. It’s so beautiful and I don’t think anyone understands how much the great Gatsby means to me. Best book I’ve ever read
So you want to be objectified, seen as a trophy, only wanted for your family's wealth, be held to an impossible standard, and have your past be treated as disposable? Please, don't like guys like this. None of the characters were good.
@@Someone-ig7we it was daisy that was obsessed with wealth, not gatsby, gatsby really loved daisy, he already had money, he just wanted to be with the one person that he thought cared about him, but in the end it was Nick that was the only one who really cared about gatsby.
Daisy is a pragmatist, which is unlike the dreamer Gatsby is. At the end here, she weeps not because of the shirt themselves per se but because of what the shirt represents. 5 years earlier, before she was about to be married to Tom, she got a letter from Gatsby asked her to wait for him. Long story short, she chose Tom even though she loved Gatsby because Tom was able to provide for her unlike Gatsby at that point in time. Now, we learn that Tom is a womanizer and a cheater while Gatsby has still loved her all this while. When she sees the many silk shirts(symbolizing wealth) she realizes that had she married Gatsby instead she could’ve had love and material wealth,unlike Tom who treats her like crap. In some ways, there is parallels between Daisy and Myrtle, specifically their thinking that they married the wrong person.
damn. i wanna eternally thank my English teacher for introducing me to this book! A book has never made me cry before, but Gatsby’s death absolutely hit me like a brick.
Just imagine. Trying to get over you're true first love and starting a new adventurous life and finally being set in life with your "final" love. Then, BAM, your ex pops up out of no where. I get both sides. I honestly wanted Daisy to choose Gatsby. And Gatsby did not deserve to die at all.
he didn't love HER. he loved the IDEA of her. He objectified her. He only wanted her as a trophy. He said her "voice is full of money." He mentions she was the first "nice" girl he met, as in, the only girl with a luxurious life. His father (in the book, it got cut out of the movie) mentions how Gatsby always believed he was supposed to be born into wealth and riches. Daisy was living his dream life, and so he romanticized it. He even tricked her into sleeping with him. He did illegal things to get his money, and didn't even think of the child she has. He tried to erase her past for her. He didn't even think of what she wanted when he confronted Tom. She never gets to say anything.
i thought this was too, but as i reread the book and watched the movie, something people tend to skip over or maybe not catch on(this is how i interpreted it anyways) is that during the confession, where gatsby is telling daisy to admit to tom that she never loved him. gatsby is so unsatisfied with how daisy went about the matter, that it almost made me think in that moment, daisy saw more to their love, she saw the expectations and fantasy held upon her by gatsby. and when she realized that to him, her literally confessing to her husband that she was in love with another man wasn’t enough. she felt(how i think she felt) that she would never meet his ideal fantasies that he had held daisy up to all these years. and so i’m not saying what she did in the end was right, but maybe she ran out of fear and insecurity within herself(if that makes sense!!)
ikr. It's the sign of the "new-rich" to have to point out what old money takes for granted. It was a nice touch to remind us CONSTANTLY of how Gatsby is truly a poor outsider in Daisy's world.
One of my favorite parts of Gatsby's character is his acceptance of Nick even after he's brought him Daisy. Still includes him in literally everything.
The cinematography is this movie is so perfect. The acting and visualization also feels so pure and true. One of my all time favorites, especially this scene.
@@delaneyk5875 I’m not into daisy x Nick (daisy sucks) but they were something like third cousins twice removed or something, either wya they were far apart for them to not know she got married and he was in the war
Holy shit, I just realized that the "Will you still love me when I am no longer young and beautiful" line is sang from Gatsby's perpsective, not the girl!
I absolutely love the aesthetics and the directing in this movie. One of my all time favourite. It really brought life to the stereotypical roaring 20's.
God, this scene is cinematic perfection. It makes me so emotional every time. Lana Del Bae has such a beautiful voice. I'm a Cancer and a Hopeless Romantic so I can 100% relate to Gatsby in this movie. 🥺❤ Leo did such a great job. He's my favorite actor for a reason.
Glad to see Spider-Man is still taking photos
LOL. I get it.
Lmfao😂🤣😂🤣
Lol
Gotta pay his rent.
And this Spider-Man is not kissing a rich guy's butt.
It was so hard reading the book because of how much Gatsby "loved" Daisy. He loved the idea of her, not her and that's what killed him.
Me She was the American dream that he so desperately wanted.
I was literally about to cry when he died. 💔💔😰😰
Me “he loved the idea of her” that was deep. And something I can actually relate to. It’s like missing an Ex but the part you’re missing isn’t there anymore.

his flaw was seeing daisy as an object rather than as a person, daisys flaw is obviously being an unfaithful wife
This scene was the real ending. Everything after this was written for stupid people who need drama and a tragic ending. For me this was a rags to riches / love story and Gatsby got the girl. The end. Fk the rest of it, made no sense anyway. "here, dude I hate, have my car keys" lmao what? The whole "tell him you didn't love him" thing like I feel like a woman wrote that. What kind of needy fk says that? IDK maybe that's what people were like back then or something. I would have played a little harder to get with Daisy...once he got her, it was over. She was already looking for a reason to leave Tom, the cheating asshole, so all Gatsby had to do was show up to win lmao. Whole ending is bullshit. Realistically Gatsby would have won.
You haven’t read the book perhaps; she deserved better too. Pretty much everyone concerned deserved better than the lives they were living, which in the case of the wealthy… money did precisely nothing to fix. It’s not just a tragedy for those who die in the end, it’s a tragedy because love loses to the “comforts” of money, and callousness and cowardice wins. Daisy was tragically weak, and trapped, and scared… she was a too afraid to leave a five year marriage and daughter with Tom for her true love, Jay Gatz… who regrettably wasn’t a socially candidate during their courtship prior to marrying Tom Buchanan. You want a modern analogue? The character Rachel from The White Lotus, the wife who feels she’ll always “just be a plus one,” to her wealthy husband.
@@user-np8yf8fj2w As an object? You're retarded.
Carey Mulligan was an excellent choice for Daisy.
The fact people genuinely despise her is a credit, because that was how F Scott Fitzgerald wrote her.
SGM ASMR I just don't think she's a good actress lol
Jackie R she was good in that one movie
CAREY MULLIGAN IS LEGIT SO BEAUTIFUL I WILL SHOOT MYSELF IN THE FACE
Plumeria Hyacinth she’s fantastic in this movie wym

Don't talk about it, be about it.
I love the way Daisy speaks- it's so soft and sweet. With that light airy-ness towards the end of her lines. It reminds me so much of the classic movies from the early-mid 20th century during the Golden Era of film making. It's subtle, but it adds so much to the time and era the film takes place in.
I agree ❤️
Truly a voice full of money
Even in the end, Gatsby thinks that Daisy called him when it was actually his friend, Nick.
At least he died happy..🥺
Thank to Scott Fitzgerald, Leo, Lana Del Rey
Amen to that
theterminator308 And bazh, don't forget him
and Carey Mulligan
And baz ludeman
And Jay Z for the musical arrangement! In the Movie! ...yeap!.. he executive produced the music
I wish the choir at 2:09 and Lana's humming at 2:15 were on the soundtrack album. Unbelievable, gives me shivers.
Love that part too

@@sophia8060 thank u !
It makes me feel some type of way for some reason
Sadly, they never released that specific song.
to everyone who said that their love story is beautiful, whatever - it’s not even love. gatsby was just enraptured by everything she represented to him when he was a soldier - wealth, money, fame, perfection. in his head he’s built up this version of her that in reality she will never fulfill. he’s not in love with her - he’s in love with the idea of her.
Isn't that every relationship... you don't really know your family, parents, relatives, spouses even. You love the idea of what you think they represent...
@@LSSYLondon Heavy stuff
Thats your interpretation
@@LSSYLondon Agreed. Many argue that Jay loved Daisy at one point in time, and that's the idea of her the he loved. But if we have to love a person no matter how much he/she changes, isn't that just similar to loving a different person altogether. Lol
That's the message of the book, and Daisy was just a gold digger. But this scene made it really difficult for anyone that hasn't read the book to understand that, because it was filmed and written so beautifully. In this scene, they truly do seem so in love and it makes it difficult to realize that they are not actually
this seems to prove that Gatsby wasn't in love with her but more of what she represents, " how she catches the light," "how she makes it look so splendid," more on how she looked and how she made the place look than her.
I disagree, part of loving someone is appreciating their natural beauty and how they make things more beautiful.
this is great analysis for my a level englit lit thank you sir
Hes been wanting her for such a long time. He means she completes the picture, she is the masterpiece that brings everything together. That's how in love he was with her but well she is selfish
@@emimh6060 He didn't love her. She was the unobtainable, wealthy "golden girl" that he wanted to possess and be a part of that world. Daisy would never have been able to live up to the fantasy he had created in his mind.
He was talking about his house lol
This whole movie makes me nostalgic for an era I didn't even live in
This scene is fucking beautiful
Im Oblivion this scene is young and beautiful FTFY
It’s a tradition to comeback and watch this scene from time to time
It truly is
Leo is real Gastby, who just walked out of pages I read
No he wasn't wtf
Jack K What do you mean? Jay Gatsby was not black
Jack K It is just a theory, not stated in the actual book so you are incorrect.

Source pls
Jack K The book says he had tan skin
I remember this whole scene gave me goosebumps * - *
Ma Eve After I finished the book and that my English teacher was kind enough to show us the movie, I nearly cried the first time I watched this scene.
Still does...
This movie reminded me of titanic . The whole cast did amazing especially Leo and Toby
I know right its like this movie really happened in the paste
+Ultimate Swag 123 past*

This film couldn’t have been more true to the book. It displayed the emotion so well. This was always one of my favourite scenes
Gatsby doesn’t have many friends. So when he invites Nick to come along with him and Daisy you can sense the gratitude and grace in Gatsby because it’s the first time he ever had a real friend. Someone who always has his back.
I have often heard the saying, "everyone suffers"....the rich, the poor and everyone in between. I actually feel sorrow for almost all the characters. Daisy was born into privilege and Gatsby knew that. He was the one that didn't come back from the war and when Daisy got his letter, she was ready to call off the wedding to Buchanan. She was forced to marry Buchanan as calling off the wedding would have been shocking and social suicide for her and her family.
She struggled with the love she had for Gatsby and the life and respectability she built with Buchanan. The story takes place in a different era....divorce was unheard of and brought substantial shame with it. She wanted to run away with Gatsby and that was most likely in her mind the only way they could be together.
Buchanan is the one character that I had no sympathy for due to his cruelty to Daisy, Mrytle and really everyone he came in contact with.
This is one of my favorite movies and favorite songs as well. Thank you for posting it.
Ms. DK Couldn't have agreed more.
Tom is an a-hole in both the book and the movie. His smug face and that he's cheated on Daisy for a sub-standard girl like Myrtle is just beyond disgusting if you ask me.
Tom's only fault is that he thought money could buy everything he wanted, including women, which is true to some extent. Neither Daisy, nor Myrtle were ever with him because of who he is as a person, but because he was rich, which is why I accuse the women in this novel being the cause of most problems. Daisy was like a carefree child who thought there are no consequences or actions, as her husband and family were always there to clean up after her. She never learned in the end either. Gatsby was an idiot for chasing some woman from 5 years ago who was married and had kids who doesn't even care about him enough to attend his funeral. All of this was like a game to Daisy, but full-on serious for Gatsby. I pity such foolish men. Feel bad for Wilson too. He was manipulated, first by his wife, then by Tom and in the end they made him into a guilt-ridden murderer who had to kill himself.
Ms. DK exactly, he was more sad that he had to give away the apartment he had for his affair with Myrtle then Myrtles actual death.
The best movie I have seen so far. Everything is on point.
This scene is far by the MOST magical scene I've ever seen in a movie. I can't explain the feelings I feel when I see this scene. And the best part is the feeling is the exact same I felt when I first saw this scene.
I feel the same exact way. I get butterflies
One of the most underrated movies of all time, score, cinematography, acting and set design is so perfect
YES !! i swear if it was made now, it would win so many awards !! i’d hope anyways
"She looks like she could be on the cover of Vogue don't ya think?" Hits me every single time

She did it.
01:16 - it gives me goosebumps! I just love Lana Del Rey so much.
I love you too
Lana Del Rey love you
Salman Zaki I agree
OMG yessssssssssss lysfm
Sameeee
"Absolutely old sport! Absolutely." -Jay Gatsby
Just seeing Gatsby’s genuine smile of joy when he’s throwing the clothes on Daisy, thinking that he got back what he once had is heartbreaking, as well as heartwarming. It’s just amazing to watch the range of emotion in this scene and the innocent joy.
0:48 - 1:19 it’s that echoing of lana singing 😭😍
I could listen to that small melody over and over again.. 2:15 - 2:34
Shannon Louise I was looking for this comment
So true
Literally why I’m here
Donnie Del Rey i have just heard it and it is perfect! Thank you, nice person :)
Peyton Collins i absolutely love it
This version of young and beautiful hits so differently
I cry every time I see this scene, it’s so ethereal and dauntingly sweet.
This song was played many times in the movie. I love how they loved the song so much, they played it like 3-5 times.
And all 3 we're different, but still the same music.
The scene at 1:21- 1:24 is one of the most beautiful scenes in movie history. Gatsby gazing at Daisy as if she is the most intricate part of his world perfectly captures the essence of this movie. A Cinematographic masterpiece, indeed!
One of the best compositions.. Soul touching.
I can’t get over this scene the music the cinematography, the mood of it the emotion just a perfect scene
What's interesting about this is how the colors and the grandeur of everything, it seems fake somehow. And that contributes to the theme of people putting up facades to the person who they really are inside. Cool book, cool movie.
this song makes me cry ..
Same here
Fanni Krivi hmu
This scene is one of the best in the movie because all the 3 actors have done a splendid job. It is also one of the most symbolic scenes in the movie because here we really see Gatsby's relationship with Daisy...
this scene is so beautiful and magic. it seems unreal. Gatsby is such an amazing charter and Leo plays him in a perfect way, so handsome, so intense and deep. Gatsby is the man of dreams. Daisy is so lucky. the music is perfect, it seems like also they can listen to it. 1:16 all he have done, he did for her. I wish I could have a Gatsby in my life, I wish I could be Daisy, I wish I could have the hope that him has and the patience and the passion. the end is sad, but really significant.
wow so beautiful. I like what you wrote
she cried while saying i have never seen such beautiful shirt before coz now he have everything which he didn't had 5 years before thats y she is sad n staying with tom n also had a kid she move on bt gatsby was still stuck in past
ashley den Thank you
This scene makes me almost cry... i would have die happily if a man loves me like gatsby
Oh please don't. He objectified her and treated her like a trophy. He didn't care what she thought in the scene where he confronted Tom. He tried to control her past. He's an awful person to love. All of the characters were awful. Please, get yourself someone better :(
I just finished reading the book at school and honestly I fell in love with the book, not only that but the movie as well. It’s so beautiful and I don’t think anyone understands how much the great Gatsby means to me. Best book I’ve ever read
One of my favorites 💗
0:28 Gatsby's smirk. He's been waiting almost 5 years to flex his mansion to Daisy
i’ve watched this so many times bc the cinematography is just .. I M A C U L A T E
If only my crush would look at me like Gatsby looks at Daisy
So you want to be objectified, seen as a trophy, only wanted for your family's wealth, be held to an impossible standard, and have your past be treated as disposable? Please, don't like guys like this. None of the characters were good.
@@Someone-ig7we it was daisy that was obsessed with wealth, not gatsby, gatsby really loved daisy, he already had money, he just wanted to be with the one person that he thought cared about him, but in the end it was Nick that was the only one who really cared about gatsby.
This song is amazing old sport
Daisy is a pragmatist, which is unlike the dreamer Gatsby is. At the end here, she weeps not because of the shirt themselves per se but because of what the shirt represents. 5 years earlier, before she was about to be married to Tom, she got a letter from Gatsby asked her to wait for him. Long story short, she chose Tom even though she loved Gatsby because Tom was able to provide for her unlike Gatsby at that point in time.
Now, we learn that Tom is a womanizer and a cheater while Gatsby has still loved her all this while. When she sees the many silk shirts(symbolizing wealth) she realizes that had she married Gatsby instead she could’ve had love and material wealth,unlike Tom who treats her like crap. In some ways, there is parallels between Daisy and Myrtle, specifically their thinking that they married the wrong person.
daisy was easily my favorite, "ive never seen such beautiful shirts" has so much meaning
Echo ?? That's not the point
It was at that moment, she knew she'd fucked up.
ThatOneDude But yet she didn't really care because she abandoned Gatsby after the car accident.
Nick Carraway: most famous third wheel in literature
This is definitely one of my favorite scenes from ANY movie, to me this is pure perfection
damn. i wanna eternally thank my English teacher for introducing me to this book! A book has never made me cry before, but Gatsby’s death absolutely hit me like a brick.
Why is she sad tho?
@@kingrosales519 huh?
Just imagine. Trying to get over you're true first love and starting a new adventurous life and finally being set in life with your "final" love. Then, BAM, your ex pops up out of no where.
I get both sides. I honestly wanted Daisy to choose Gatsby. And Gatsby did not deserve to die at all.
This happened to me a few days before my birthday and now I am an emotional wreck.
he didn't love HER. he loved the IDEA of her. He objectified her. He only wanted her as a trophy. He said her "voice is full of money." He mentions she was the first "nice" girl he met, as in, the only girl with a luxurious life. His father (in the book, it got cut out of the movie) mentions how Gatsby always believed he was supposed to be born into wealth and riches. Daisy was living his dream life, and so he romanticized it. He even tricked her into sleeping with him. He did illegal things to get his money, and didn't even think of the child she has. He tried to erase her past for her. He didn't even think of what she wanted when he confronted Tom. She never gets to say anything.
i thought this was too, but as i reread the book and watched the movie, something people tend to skip over or maybe not catch on(this is how i interpreted it anyways) is that during the confession, where gatsby is telling daisy to admit to tom that she never loved him. gatsby is so unsatisfied with how daisy went about the matter, that it almost made me think in that moment, daisy saw more to their love, she saw the expectations and fantasy held upon her by gatsby. and when she realized that to him, her literally confessing to her husband that she was in love with another man wasn’t enough. she felt(how i think she felt) that she would never meet his ideal fantasies that he had held daisy up to all these years. and so i’m not saying what she did in the end was right, but maybe she ran out of fear and insecurity within herself(if that makes sense!!)
1:17 i love how Gatsby never wastes the opportunity to constantly remind everyone how rich and cultured he is 🤣🤣🤣🤣
ikr. It's the sign of the "new-rich" to have to point out what old money takes for granted. It was a nice touch to remind us CONSTANTLY of how Gatsby is truly a poor outsider in Daisy's world.
When Lana starts singing “hot summer nights” I got the chills
Leo really makes you feel the pain and fear gatsby has in this movie Leo you are such a legend!! 😭
3:03 his hairrr omgg he looks just like young leo in this
Omg yes i think the Same
Yesss so cute
every single shot in this movie is stunning
Funny how I still come back to this scene, it simply just helps you dream.
I don't know why i love this particular scene!I find myself watching this every now and then and keep feeling sorry for Leo
No matter how many versions I find for this song. I CANT FIND THIS ONE.
3:53 best scene, the way Spiderman closes thr curtains realising that he will never be filthy rich and has to take pictures for the rest of his life
That smile at 3:03 from Leo makes me melt. EVERY TIME.
you can't help who you fall in love with
One of the most beautiful and captivating scenes especially when the harmonies start in the background.
One of my favorite parts of Gatsby's character is his acceptance of Nick even after he's brought him Daisy. Still includes him in literally everything.
2:07-3:33 really love this part 💜
Yess me too!
somebody know if there is a version with this chorus, i f love it.
Poetic The Poet what’s it called ?
YES! Is that part in the score for the movie?
Me too!
The cinematography is this movie is so perfect. The acting and visualization also feels so pure and true. One of my all time favorites, especially this scene.
gatsby didnt love her he loved a dream of love...should have chosen nick lol
siimaniic it should have been
JIA YAO WONG you mean daisy and nick? If so then yes they are.
they were cousins...
yup yup yup !! loved the idea and fantasy that he made her into, in his head !!
@@delaneyk5875 I’m not into daisy x Nick (daisy sucks) but they were something like third cousins twice removed or something, either wya they were far apart for them to not know she got married and he was in the war
im experiencimg nostalgia for something ive never experienced. Oh I wish and I wish...
From 0:47 till 1:14 the music gave me goosebumps her perfect melodious voice makes me feel a lot
Holy shit, I just realized that the "Will you still love me when I am no longer young and beautiful" line is sang from Gatsby's perpsective, not the girl!
Wait, wdym? I thought it was Daisy because Gatsby only loves her for her beauty, wealth, and the past he had with her.
I absolutely love the aesthetics and the directing in this movie. One of my all time favourite. It really brought life to the stereotypical roaring 20's.
One of the most unforgettable, most beautiful scenes in the movie.
Lana is amasing
Her voice is soooooo soothing😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥SHE NEEDS TO STAY
Leonardo captures Gatsby so well
God, this scene is cinematic perfection.
It makes me so emotional every time. Lana Del Bae has such a beautiful voice.
I'm a Cancer and a Hopeless Romantic so I can 100% relate to Gatsby in this movie. 🥺❤
Leo did such a great job. He's my favorite actor for a reason.
Leonardo DiCaprio 😍 best actor in the planet, there won’t be another Dicaprio,
2:07 will forever be my favourite moment.
Lana voice just fits right in..it's breathtaking..
