    The fact that everything looks saturated and CG-like almost helps to capture the essence of the book and Fitzgerald's overall message: it is has this shiny, glossy sheen with bright lights and vivid colours that is almost dreamlike on the surface, beautiful to look at (and to listen to), but going deeper the actual story is tragic with unlikable characters and an unhappy ending. It's almost like they've put the mood of the book into visual terms: it looks unrealistic...because the mood of wealth and brightness tied to the American Dream in the 1920s was unrealistic.

      If they were natural matching pearls it could be way more expensive today. cultured pearls were invented twenty years before Daisy was a debutante and it was still an expensive propriety thing. If they were cultured pearls, they would fetch far less today.

    The scene of her breaking the string of pearls was actually really powerful. In the book she could never give up the lifestyle Tom provided to be with someone like Gatsby who was considered 'new money' and she was always unable to express her true emotions and would retreat back into the life of prestige and luxury she grew up in. Except, in this one clip when she lashed out and pearls went flying everywhere it essentially showed her finally putting love before anything else, and lashing out about how she feels. I know that in the end she turned on Gatsby but I think at one point their love was definitely real because she was even willing to give up the wealth that would be handed to her, which is what destroying the necklace represented.

      the real gag? Real pearl necklaces have knots between each pearl, making the necklace much easier to fix if broken, and making it so the pearls would never scatter all over. The way in which the necklace breaks here insinuates the $350,00 necklace was made of plastic beads, and not in fact, true pearls.

    • @LM-ix7pk
      @LM-ix7pk Před 4 lety +90

      Matt Libra hmm, interesting. Maybe the fake pearl necklace is representing Daisy’s artificial and shallow mindset about love and wealth. Or maybe Tom winning Daisy with money, but not by love. And Daisy thought the necklace was authentic pearls.

He specifically mentioned when she was lent a car, let it out in the rain to get drenched and the proceeded to say it wasn’t her. I don’t think she was believed , just no one intruded either because they did not want to get involved due to getting on her bad side or held no regard because it wasn’t their car.

      Exactly right! The Trans-Atlantic is an American accent specifically cultivated with elements of both British and American English. It's a way of speaking that was once taught in prestigious schools, and commonly used by American actors of the time.

      Mien Yue She is very beautiful but Jordan’s character is cold, distant and frivolous. This actress looks exactly how I imagined her while reading the book before the movie was released, . She shows a little humanity at the beginning but she always betrays that and chooses the superficiality of party life. Daisy, in the other hand, seems warm, pretty’s and innocent, almost like a child, although she betrays Gatsby at the end, just like everybody else, except for Nick who was the only one who cared for his friend.

    "On the last afternoon before he went abroad he sat with Daisy in his arms for a long, silent time. It was a cold fall day with fire in the room and her cheeks flushed. Now and then she moved and he changed his arm a little and once he kissed her dark shining hair. The afternoon had made them tranquil for a while as if to give them a deep memory for the long parting the next day promised. They had never been closer in their month of love nor communicated more profoundly one with another than when she brushed silent lips against his coat's shoulder or when he touched the end of her fingers, gently, as though she were asleep."

    The production design and CG, color palettes, color coordination, props and graphics, accurate costumes and makeup! It's all breathtaking and infinitely detailed. Catherine Martin really did an incredible job. Everything looks so brilliantly thought and thoroughly researched. Probably one of, if not the best film to visually, artistically and intimately portray 1920s New York, or even the 20s style in general. Two Oscars well deserved for her design work.
    Edit: The design team actually looked through fashion magazines from the time including satirical illustrations of people from Vanity Fair to visually inspire each one of Gatsby's partygoers.

    As much as the broken pearl necklace scene was powerful, it makes me laugh because real pearl necklaces have knots in between pearls as to not ruin them when they rub together, so they wouldn’t have all fallen off like that.

    I can sympathize with Gatsby for his desire to impress Daisy. He hosts some of the most extravagant parties at his mansion, acquired a vast fortune, and expanded his reputation just to have a shot at getting back Daisy. It is inspiring yet tragic because his success is merely based on his desire to get Daisy. Daisy is his reason to gain a fortune and to live his hedonistic lifestyle. Without her, he will have no reason to continue with his success.
    I too did a lot to have a shot at getting a girl I was infatuated with by studying hard in school, later going to a top tier university, buying a luxury car, learned to play guitar, and lived a wild life just to impress her. Just like Gatsby, I grew up from a low income background and the girl I was interested in was being groomed to be among the top students in our district (possibly the county) and she was higher in the social rankings than I was. Once I blew my chance with her during college, I decided to continue on with my life and no longer made her my only reason to continue improving my life. Too bad for Gatsby, he couldn't let go Daisy within those 5 years otherwise, he would have had a better life.

    The debate on weather or not Daisy loved Gatsby is interesting, I however think she did. I think she's smarter than we think and than she'd like to be. Smart enough to know that for a woman in this time life is just easier if you follow "the rules". Everybody talks about how sad it was that Jay couldnt have Daisy even though he loves her so much, but it hurts Daisy too. She knows that he loved her and she DEFINITELY loved him. He was real in a world of fake rich people getting drunk to solve their problems and partying because they have gone to far to remove the glass which is pain that rests on the beds that they have made and shall forever sleep in. Daisy loved Gatsby

    • @GingerBreadMan1178
      @GingerBreadMan1178 Před 3 lety +13

      Yes, that's why she was crying when Gatsby was throwing the linens at her. At that moment, she knew she could've had both fortune and love. She's been with Tom for so long that she feels secure being where she's at, and that's why she was scared to get a divorce. It's like a relationship where the guy/girl doesn't feel comfortable living together even though they've been together for years because the individual is so use to living by him/herself. Change is hard when you adapt too much within that time period.
