GREAT GATSBY Trailer (2012) Movie HD
From the uniquely imaginative mind of writer/producer/director Baz Luhrmann comes the new big screen adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel, The Great Gatsby. The filmmaker will create his own distinctive visual interpretation of the classic story, bringing the period to life in a way that has never been seen before, in a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio in the title role. "The Great Gatsby" follows Fitzgerald-like, would-be writer Nick Carraway as he leaves the Midwest and comes to New York City in the spring of 1922, an era of loosening morals, glittering jazz and bootleg kings. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick lands next door to a mysterious, party-giving millionaire, Jay Gatsby, and across the bay from his cousin, Daisy, and her philandering, blue-blooded husband, Tom Buchanan. It is thus that Nick is drawn into the captivating world of the super-rich, their illusions, loves and deceits. As Nick bears witness, within and without the world he inhabits, he pens a tale of impossible love, incorruptible dreams and high-octane tragedy, and holds a mirror to our own modern times and struggles. - Zábava
This book goes down in history as "the book my english teacher made me read"
Morgan Freeman Right you are, Mace Windu
And I honestly disliked it
+Morgan Freeman Too bad it must be this way. Another great piece of literature tainted by the Public school system.
kittylovermybut literally every book I read is depressing. No joke
i read it during high school; hated it; couldn't even finish it. xD
years later i picked it up again and i loved every single word.
it's odd how perceptions can change. all of the books i hated in high school are now some of my favorites. c:
i think the problem is, they give us these books too early, when many of us are not yet ready to appreciate them.
This movie was beautifully done. I've always wondered what Fitzgerald would think if he saw this. He died thinking that his book was a flop.
Sarah Yang Unfortunately it seems most masterpieces can never coexist with their creators
Sarah Yang aw :( that’s sad
This movie was garbage, did u even read the book!
But he was pretty famous and rich anyway. Not such a tragédie
@@alexaplaybtsbts463 You're insane if you believe that. The movie was glamorous art. The only thing I didn't favor was the rap music randomly thrown in it.
This film is actually like my dreams, they shift so quickly and everything is shiny, sparkly, blurry, colorful, and crowded. Watching this kind of felt like dreaming awake.
Yea definitely seems intentional and keeps your attention all the way through! Beautiful!
" Rich girls don't marry poor boys. " - F. Scott Fitzgerald father said that to him when he was young.
chile..
@@saturn7404 🇨🇱
I ought it was Ginevra's father lol
It was the father of the woman he had a crush on, not his own father and he also went to Yale like Tom. Many of the characters were inspired by ppl Fitzgerald met in real life.
he went to princeton
@@roselamoure
i love how the trailer doesnt spoil a single bit of the movie. and it turned out to be one of the best movies ive seen. im still confused how leo didnt get an oscar for this play.
Same here
Dude totally.
I'm just confused how Peter Parker got lost here.
+big pooTz Rule 1 of the world. Leo doesn't get an oscar.
+ohto rania Every story needs a hero or a spider or w/e
aside from the story..
this film had gorgeous cinematography
it's a visual masterpiece
Yes, absolutely. I also really like the soundtrack! I feel like it connects the roaring 20s and contemporary music so well
I didn't like the music choices, but I can't deny that's it's a piece of art
I was reading through the comments waiting for someone to say this! It was just wow
Fitzgerald wrote it that way.
Also one of the best production design and costume design ive ever seen!
*Even after 10 years people coming back to watch the trailer after watching the movie, tells a lot about how great this film is.*
Yes, it is! ❤
This never gets old.
True that
True that
I just watched this today and I could already say I agree
Leo looks just as he did when he was young during Titanic. Just a little weight gain and facial hair. He doesn't age and is such a wonderful actor.
All makeup
Ryan Yakov
More like makeup PLUS CGI
More manly and less lesbian looking. I agree 👍 I like it ;)
when34567 bullshit
Snickers557 WHy?
4 years later I'm still like: Daisy, bitch.
same lmao
Ikr
perfect bitch, yep =)
IKR seeing her again makes me wanna rip her wig-looking hair off
Haven´t seen the movie yet but planning to do so soon. From the novel I didn´t really got the impression that Daisy was a bitch per se... but more the general feel that fate always seems to work devious that in the end true soulmates never really get the opportunity to end up happy together. But everyone that saw the movie seems to have gotten the feeling that Daisy is a bitch... interesting...
My English teacher made me read the book and I’m sooo thankful he did that because I literally fell in love with this story and the movie. This is one of those books that leave you speechless and takes a while to grasp every detail of it. I love this so much and my fav legend, Leo , Toby, and Amitabh just made it a whole lot better.
I genuinely love this film, it introduced me to the book when I was in fifth grade when it first came out and I haven’t gone a year without rereading the book or rewatching the movie since-the book is superior, but this film will always hold a special place in my heart, right next to its source material.
What??? I haven’t read the book, thank u!! I’ll have to read it now!
@@db4695 Did you not know it was a book? Lmao
So You like crap. This book was a chore to read. I've read better comics then this
I'm looking through my notes that i have on you @Sameer Kumar and it says right here, that you didn't reread the book or rewatch the movie in 2015 or 2016. I've been watching you... So, i guess that makes you a liar in your comment, here, don't it?
I actually like the movie more than the book. The book is painfully slow but of course the advantage is that it will give more insight
Everyone is talking about how Daisy and Tom screwed over Gatsby. Gatsby was not screwed over by anyone. He was blinded by love and forgot that Daisy was a married women with a child. If he opened his eyes a little bit, he would have seen that Daisy still loves Tom. But the reality of it is that everyone in this story screwed over Nick Carraway. He was just a pawn they used as it pleased them. No one cared about him or his opinions. Gatsby befriended him to get closer to Daisy; Daisy was close to him because he knew Gatsby; Tom befriended him so he can have someone he can go out and party with and show his superiority. Nick was the true gentleman that put others before himself. He was the only man that worried about others even after their death. I guess it goes to show that true kindness goes unnoticed more often than not.
P.S. Great movie and acting by the way.
+TeddyMrEthio The great comment. Totally agree with you.
Remember that Daisy slept with Gatsby. Many times when she was married. She gave him false hope. I understand why people hate her for it
+Delena InMyHeart I'm not defending Daisy. However, by saying that you are implying Gatsby is the victim of the story. The fact that he slept with her makes both of them morally wrong. What I'm trying to say is that Gatsby gets the undeserved sympathy from people; when in fact, Nick Carraway is the victim of the story.
+TeddyMrEthio I have finally found someone who sees it the way I do!
i got bored reading ur sad story
Game for when you watch the movie: take a shot every time gatsby says "old sport"
Maisie Patricia 😂😂😂🤪🤪🤪
Maisie Patricia in other news, over 10,000 people were found dead in the cinema after what appeared to be a mass suicide. Foul play was not suspected but the one thing they had in common was that they were all at a viewing of The Great Gatsby, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, and Baz Luhrman have been taken in for questioning.
I really want to do this when I can
u would probably end up in the ER
No the book lmao
The most amazing actors in this:
- Tobey Miguire (Spider-Man)
- Leonardo DiCaprio (one of the most iconic actors ever)
and also Amitabh Bachhan ♥
Can someone pls tell me where is this movie available to watch? Thanks much!
@@annu9475 ummmm I’m not sure sorry I think it’s on Netflix but I bought it to watch

what's his favorite word in this movie
old spot or what???
Her voice is full of money
+Queen K.
lol
exactly
+Karla Buendia more accurate to her character in the book.
Karla Munoz that has nothing to do with his love for her. Gatsbys voice is filled with more money. He was obsessed with her. With her golden girl, socialite, persona.
that's how Gatsby describes her in the book, hon
and she was about as shallow as his martini
Instead of reading the book for school I watched this movie. I got the highest grade in my class.
i bet good money that you're the most mature one in that class.
Weird flex but ok
Terrible idea tbh
Another martini, Paul?

best quote in the book
This is one of the best edited trailers I've ever seen.
+pazzmatt This trailer is sooo good, but it does have a mistake. It says "Christmas" but t didn't come out in Christmas due to a problem with the dates, so it came out on summer next year (2013) but omg this movie
Mariana Barboza yeah winter movies are usually prestige films for oscar contension but it turned into a summer flick. i saw the trailer in 3d but it dint live up to the hype. so many missteps like i don't mind a modern sndtrk if its good but the soundtrack was trash except for the lana del ray song.
red seven I liked the soundtrack. A interesting modern idea to reinforce the idea that the magical characters in the story aren't touched by their time. The story of Jay, nick and daisy aren't bound by their eras but their story is as real today as it was decades ago.
This editing is great...but the song makes this trailer
pazzmatt Knight of Cups trailer!!! Editing 100%
And Leo did it again on the water.
Leo always dies in the water but atleast rose said goodbye and daisy didn’t even visit his funeral
The Ugly Truth About Being Someone’s Second Choice When They Were Always Your First. Like Gatsby, I was someone's second choice while he was always my priority. He had the perfect ability of making you feel important while he acted otherwise. And It hurt like hell. You don’t seem to be enough for them no matter how much you try. You are always available and you think that’s the problem. They take you for granted because you can’t say ‘No’ to them. They always expect you to understand because you say it’s okay all the time. Sometimes you wish you were tougher. Like if one day they came running to you again and you’re suddenly no longer there for them. You wish you can turn your back. But you can’t. Because you know exactly how it feels to be rejected. You know how it feels to be set aside. You know how it feels to be left out for something MORE than you. You know how it feels to be in that situation and if anything, you don’t want anyone to experience the pain of it. I'm 6 years in this pain. I had enough. Love is action, not words. I want someone to know how to love.
Hope you've gone all through those hardships and find someone who can love you more than you can love them back.
I know that feeling. It breaks something in you, it takes something from you. It changes you in a melancholic and rough way. Forever
Bro you've legit went through a lot, I hope you're doing better now
I feel you
Omg thank you all for your support!!! HAPPY update: yes, I ended the toxic relationship and it was the best decision. Never looked back, even when he wanted me back. Now I'm with someone that I can't believe how lucky I'm to met him. He is the one! So my message is, never settle for less, look for someone exactly as you imagine him/her to be. Better be happy alone, than miserable with someone. Take care everyone! I hope you all find love by start giving it to yourselves first. That's what I did, and that's why it worked. ♡
One of the best movies I've ever seen! Seriously, it's just so beautiful even though I didn't like the end!
xElysian17 the end just completely diverted from the book
Brayden Procter the 1979 version was better in my opinion. Pretty much everything in the book was in the movie.
V hahhaha
Indeed
@@natelastname5472 lol I agree
Did anyone read The Great Gatsby by choice? I'm seeing comments from people that have to read it in school and talking about it like it's a chore.
I love books and reading and wish there were more people that actually enjoyed the book instead of talking about it like some kind of project that they want rid of.
+CastleFlameGal I read it by choice 2 days ago :)
+CastleFlameGal I am neither American nor English. I am not even an English native yet I read this in English and in my mother tongue by my own choice, twice. I do not know how people spend their time without getting bored if they do not read books and they think reading books is a boring chore-like duty to do. Spending time only on Facebook? On Twitter? Too bad for them.
I'm like the Person above me. I am from Germany and it is one of my favourite books, I read it by Choice 3 or 4 times in English now and also decided to dedicate my High School term paper too it. Even though that meant I had to analyse it to the core i still love and worship it, and I can't Imagine that anyone, who actually likes to read wouldnt. However, it really is sad to see, how many people think reading is a torment and boring. It's all about the Internet nowadays, which makes so many People really ignorant and dull, and me pretty sad
+CastleFlameGal I read it the other day, I thought it was pretty good. It was never part of my school's reading list.
Same i read it a week before we had to in class because it looked very intresting and it was
I felt spider man loved Leonardo DiCaprio a little more than leo liked daisy
Ahh, It's Nick, Spider man loves Mary Jane.
Yes....
exactly what i thought reading the book 👀
They are best friends in real life. Toby and Leo grew up together.
@@5mysoluap978 so did we
This movie, is incredible. Does the book justice. The soundtrack is something I still listen to even in 2019
Even 2022 lol
everyone complaining about the music choice is proving exactly why it was used. when we today hear jazz, we think of an old fashioned smoky jazz club, which is a nice bit of nostalgia but not the "feel" the movie or book was going for. try to remember that the great gatsby was written in the 1920s, it was a reflection of modern times, not a look back in the past, which makes it NOT a period piece. Fitzgerald wasn't trying to evoke a "this is the 1920s" feeling, he was evoking a "this is the crazy, modern, fast paced, party obsessed world today's rich are living in" feeling. when people of the 1920s heard jazz, it was provocative and risqué. it inspired young people to dance and go a little crazy. it pissed off the older people, the majority of whom thought it was annoying and nonsensical and vapid, which is exactly the reactions people have to today's pop and hip hop. the creators of the movie wanted to capture THAT feeling, the one that played a much larger role in the story than jazz's "the 1920s really sounded like this!" would have
I love your comment, it is so true!
I totally get it now! Hearing hip hop definitely created the intended impact on me! Good thinking!
Well they mixed “can’t stop,” which is a horrible song in any era, with an off beat jazz trumpet in the wrong key so I can see why people hate it. Plus, the the hip hop evokes a sense of digital age modernism and not 1920s modernism, so I think it failed there too
Good point.
I still say Jazz would've been better.
Lovely explanation
give this guy a fucking oscar please !
I was dumbfounded a long time ago knowing he never won an oscar, and even after this movie came out, im still waiting for that damn coscar for THIS movie lol
the same here , and thats truth pisses my off seriously :/
Mohamed Abousserhane this movie was horrible. Did you listen to the music?! The movie is based in the past and it comes out with music from 3 years ago!
Danilo Figueroa Baz Luhrman explained that he used popular songs from today to mirror the popularity of 20s music
Ash Alonzo and it was not a good call it completely threw it off balance.
I just can't get over with this trailer, I've been watching it every year since its release. "Love is Blindness" fits perfectly and the editing is beyond amazing. I love this film, even though it got too much hate. I wish people could see it's worth.
Literally same
My favorite is the XX together video from this movie
It is the greatest book ever
What was the first song they used in the beginning of the trailer?

I really hate Daisy more than Tom.
Honestly, they deserve each other.
Lane Regencia
Yea
She's stupid af :)
I love nick tho.
Daisy was just a fickle, egocentric, and irresponsible gold digger.
Firefox_GamingXD only because of Tom!
Best movie EVER. Leonardo should have win many oscars for this.
I know right.I just don't get why he never won an Oscar I mean have they seen Titanic?
johane xo Leo doesn't NEED an Oscar. It's marketing BS, and Leo is #1 even without the "award." You don't have to put "Best Actor" next to Leo's name to sell a movie, it's completely superfluous, you just need Leo's name.
WestCoastSwinger yeah i know but an Oscar would have been a little thing to highlight his talent
nabihah hj jamil i bet they didn't
but rightfully he did not
I studied the novel by F.Scott Fitzgerald in Grade 11 English and then watched the movie and it makes so much more sense and has such a more deeper meaning to it. Don’t just say you hate parts of it without realizing the amazing ness to EVERY.SINGLE.MOMENT in this movie.
This film is underrated. The performances by the cast were amazing. Especially Leo & Joel’s performances.
I was surprised by Joel. Woah.
Should i watch it?
That was the most captivating film I've ever seen! This trailer doesn't do justice!
I thought the trailer was amazing, so...will the movie be mindblowing? 😱 I'm so excited to see the movie
+Heeii Du absolutely!
true
One of my favorite movies...
Watch Great Gatsby trailer 3, it's much much better!
Read the book because I wanted to, and I loved it!
Same
It was totally straight 😏
Leo is simply gorgeous
The funny thing is in real life ppl would've done exactly the same as daisy did..... Reality is tragedy but we always predict happy endings as if its guaranteed.
2020 who's here ✨
Yeah... it’s Human nature, never changed since 3000 years ago! Guys should have known from the start what Daisy was gonna do. Tom had it under control and he was the real winner
@@RandomAwesomeism Unfortunately he was, unfortunately he was.
@@RandomAwesomeism no, Tom's mistress died, and his wife had cheated on him. Daisy was the real winner, she got to keep her wealth, her family, her status, her freedom and name clear after killing a human being, getting rid of the mistress she so detested. She got to enjoy the thrill of being with another man without giving him ANYTHING in return. And, most of all, she got to carry on with her pretentious life without the slightest guilt on her conscience about the THREE deaths she had caused or any other of her misdeeds.
She's a horrible person, but nevertheless the true winner.
Without children you can do anything babe
watched movie yesterday. i was impressed! i was sorry for leo tho :/
SORRY for not winning (oscar) again....also!!!
William Favero The book has been out for some time you know?
rbz0 it came out in 1925, so you can say it's been out for a while :D
This trailer makes you want to see the movie, right? Why don't you watch the whole movie online? It's possible without cost at this web site I stumbled upon. You can see if the movie is decent for you to purchase later if you want. They have created it secure and convenient to watch all types of movies, even the movie for this trailer. Try it at the website link below. *WatchTheseNow . com*
Mandolin L. No Gatsby did love her... but Daisy I guess you could say didn't really LOVE him, that's why she left at the end and never bothered to call or answer the phone... the Daisy and Tom were assholes...
New drinking game:
1. Make some friends watch Great Gatsby with you.
2. Whenever Gatsby says "old sport", you all drink a shot of whiskey.
3. The one who wins will be the one who survives without alcohol poisoning.

You sir, are a genius. Now why didn't I think of that? #DontSayIt
Even in 2020 is one my favorite movies.
I still find myself coming back to this trailer every once in while, years later
Trueee
I'm happy to see Spiderman and Jack Dawson in a movie. I heard they're best friends in real life.
Yeah, Tobey McGuire (not sure if I spelt that right- :/) and Leo DiCaprio are childhood friends. They're such cuties. :)

Yes very good friends
They are ^w^
Usually remade movies don't beat the originals, but this one did!
+Cinematic Top 10 yes of course! I watched both the old and new movie. Trust me.
+Angelita Numzz What? This movie isn't a remake. Its based off of a book...
+The Veneficus The first movie version of "The Great Gatsby" was made in the 1970's. I think that's what she's talking about
+Leah Street yes exactly Leah!!!
Angelita Numzz Oh okay. *Phew* That makes sense.
One of the most amazing books every written, especially in the 1920s. The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald and Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad are some of my favorite books ever written in the early 20th century.
I have a huge place in my heart for this film, I saw it in the cinema with my parents upon release. I was 18 and absolutely captivated by the presentation and soundtrack/score.
I remember being thrown into this world and then gut struck by the ending and the huge lesson the story teaches the audience.
That lesson being is that a dream can lead you to your grave and love can blind you from the truth.
I finally realized why I love this movie so much. Its not about the story, its the visuals, the colors, the image of the film. They are just so perfect. What an enjoyable 2 hours I have had. If you love movies you must watch this one. Movies are not books, they are meant to be watched.
And from Daisy not even a flower 😭
Seeing this trailer in 2012 in IMAX 3D was surreal, especially that first shot of Leo through the window.... genuinely one of the most memorable 'movies are reaching a new visual tier' moments since the first trailers for Spider-Man or Lord Of The Rings. Can't wait to rewatch the film in 4K this summer for the 100th anniversary of the summer of '22.
I read this book in my Junior year of high school, and in class we watched this movie. I have to say, it has to be one of the best book to film adaptations that I’ve seen. The acting, the film work, everything was great.
Warning: DO NOT read the comments. It is FILLED with spoilers.
thank you
Thank you !!!
Thank you.
Thanks man. You are doing the Lord's work.

I don't like love stories, but every now and then I find a gem, this is one of those gems
I really love how this trailer’s soundtrack, editing gives a sense of the facade, the chaos behind the glamorous lenses of old money, higher classes
Just read the book, the trailer seems like a fair enough representation of what I read. Glad to see the actress got Daisy's voice right, since it was such a huge part of her description.
"He hadn't once ceased looking at Daisy and I think he revalued everything in his house according to the measure of response it drew from her well-loved eyes. Sometimes, too, he stared around at his possessions in a dazed way as though in her actual and astounding presence none of it was any longer real."

Can u believe everything he did was for her.. just amazing but all crashed down to him die ing in the end
***** Is that true? Because then I'm really disappointed in the love story :(
jahsai hodge Cheers for the spoiler alert jackass
Not exactly a trophy wife. His love turned into an obsession and he wanted to go back in time to how they were before he left. However, he didn't realize that it was impossible and that time couldn't wait for him.
***** Not sure what book you read. Gatsby could have had any woman he wanted by the time he settled to a life of luxury, and an unmarried woman would have certainly suited much better if all he wanted was a trophy wife, but those weren't his motivations.
OMG WHY DOES LEO ALWAYS FREAKING DIE IN ROMEO AND JULIET THE TITANIC AND NOW HERE I AM HOPING HE MAKES IT IN THIS ONE AND IM JUST LIKE

This movie is wonderful. Wonder why Leo didn't win a Emmy for this. .-.
I don't think this would qualify for an "Emmy".
Oscars
Emmys are just for television right?
anime&stf Yes
I LOVE Baz Lurhmann's directing style, and the way he can depict any period in time on-screen with brilliance and somehow modernise it so it is more appealing to contemporary audience, whilst simultaneously making a bold and artistic statement.
I saw this movie with my Mum when it came out in theatres, who was skeptical about the use of modern music and the casting choice of Leonardo DiCaprio (my absolute favourite actor). By the end, she was in tears, in love with the film. We ended up seeing it again another two times.
Anyone who has never seen this should definitely give it a chance. Lurhmann took a risk with this magnificent piece of American literature, but that risk sure paid off. :)
This is that one film that’s always on the in flight entertainment system and I always watch it.
Man this is a beautiful movie. The screen play, the style, The colors,the actors, a delight movie.
this will always be my favorite soundtrack/movie. honestly I will never get tired of this movie. baz luhrman is honestly a genius
anyone else forced to read this by their english teacher?
Haha me to i just watched the movie. Now we are doing a trailer as a presentation.
nah I read the outsiders
im doing a fucken report on it right now in college.
Most boring book ever
+Slapping it ALL is is actually one of the greatest books of all the time
Out of the books I've read in school The Great Gat is definitely one of my favorites
"She never loved loved him " and "love is blinding" are my two favorite. Quotes from the great Gatsby
the film was ok not great but Leos performance is brilliant and the soundtrack is also the best thing about the film
if you think this movie is just ok i'd like to know what movies you think are actually good
+Pinksparklees I responded politely to your other comment, but considering you said that the book wasn't even good,and only the movie was, just doesn't feel like you have a real, deep appreciation for classic, meaningful, literature. This person probably read the book and loved it(like just about everyone else,apparently not kids because they don't know great writing when they see it yet) Movies are hardly never better than the books. This one certainly wasn't. It was awesome. But the book was way better. I'm sorry that you (a high schooler most likely) need predictable action packed 21 century books that,honestly, compared to f. Scott Fitzgeralds writing skills, is horrible. No disrespect towards the newer books. Doesn't mean I would never give them a try, but the great Gatsby and many other older books have something that the newer books don't have; character. Even though many of the kids think they have character,they seriously lack in that category. No disrespect to you either!
Jane Doe i meant about the film, the book is really good
Jane Doe Now that I think about it your right, F. Scott Fitzgerald was a genius to come up with such a compelling plot and I do appreciate the meaningful literature. It's just that the book lacks the glitz and the glam of what people expect in the 21st century but the movie incorporates that factor.
such a captivating movie . with an elegance of it's own . I sure hope to experience another film like "the great Gatsby" again . because I was drown to this world of wonderful charms and different kinds of people who live to be surfaced again to realty of the touching End
I just watched this film for the first time earlier today. Wow, this film was incredible. Both DiCaprio's and Maguire's roles were unforgettable. The ending was a shock to the system though.
Watches this way back in time, recently finished the book and watches it again 😍😍😍😍😍 every scene felt like a blessing
I wasnt forced to read this by my english teacher.
Jeje
+Queen K. SAME! Gotta read it in 3 weeks doe -_-
I'm reading it for English... during spring break...... I have to finish a ten paged packet... during spring break..
I read it when I was in 7th grade for fun lol
EVEN THE FREAKING TRAILERS ARE AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE THIS MOVIE SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Indeed, old sport.
hape97 u just... i like you
Beautiful representation of human reality. We laugh and enjoy the company of people or a friend when everything's OK. But when his/her life is socially challenged or questioned because of a single-malicious-rumour; we forget everything about him/her, to the point that attending his/her funeral becomes a curse to us.
This Movie will forever be my favourite the music the costumes the characters the everything was spot on! Gets you feeling sum type of way and emotionally swell up. Luvvvv it !
my english teacher made me read this... and i'm glad he did. such a great book
I really could feel how intense Daisy's love for Gatsby was. The actress did her character much justice. It's a shame though, that Daisy Buchanan couldn't overcome her self loathing relationship, and her materialistic view on the world.
This film taught us a really important message, you can't re-live the past.
Such an underrated film! Love this film!!
Omg years after watching this and I still feel heartbroken when I think of the ending😓
My dad gave me this book when I was 23 and I absolutely fell in love with it. This movie does such a better job portraying the craziness and imagination of the Book.
Honestly, this was a good anime but I prefer the manga way more.
Edit: woah 300+ likes?! Thanks guys!
What in the fuck is manga dumbfuck
+zillo Pillow manga is a comic like style created in Japan
It's a classic book -_-
+zillo Pillow .manga is like marvel of japan.
Sami Khan bro you slayed it 😂
I hated reading books in English class but "The Great Gatsby" was by far one of the few books that I both enjoyed and loved. The movie was pretty good as well, it gave the story a bit of oddity just like how I imagined the book. An odd amazing story that has an odd amazing movie.
One of my all time favorite trailers. Who's watching in 2021?
"so we beat on, boats against the current,borne back ceaselessly into the past" what a damn movie!!!!
SPIDERMAN DID GREAT THIS MOVIE
I agree Sakuragi-kun.
The best movie I ever seen....and Leo is always Dominar in his acting skills.....the saddest part of the film was the Funeral of Jay Gatsby...that no one comes to his funeral not a single who attended his party....and the Daisy also doesn't come hurts me more.......💔
Still have not watched this movie yet but was singing the song in the video but gave me memories watching this trailer so I came back
SPOILER ALERT:
I'm surprised they didn't put in Gatsby's funeral. It was a major part, since no-one turned up for his funeral except from Nick, the servants, Gatsby's Dad and Owl Eyes. It really does illustrate the destruction of the american dream, how nobody even cared for him apart from those who attended and the materialistic upper class society in the 1920's.
To be honest, i didn't find the movie that good- it wasn't good, nor was it bad. It was one of those o.k movies. :l
The best bit about it was Leo's acting.
They actually mentioned it that no one came to his funeral and that it sickened Nick.
but i was expecting a scene :l
***** Oh, thanks.
If I remember the book correctly near the end Gatsby's father I believe it was gave Nick a possession of Gatsby, I think it was a notebook or something in where one could see how Gatsby at an early age strives to be a better man, it was a great revelation to me in the book and I don't think it made it to the film which was a big downer for me. But I'm not too sure, I don't remember this movie very well.
Lpedraja2002 Are you talking about the bit which has Gatsby's routine down? I'm not sure if he gave it to Nick, I think he was trying to portray his sons 'admirable' qualities.
