The Great Gatsby was adapted from
Scott Fitzgerald’s novel entitled the same. The setting is taken place in New York
City, North America. This is a story about a man named Nick Carraway who has a
friend named Jay Gatsby. Nick takes the important role here although he is not
the main character. He is the narrator of this movie who tells about his friend
Gatsby, who is the main character here. From the first time Nick meets Gatsby,
he was mesmerized by his wealth. Gatsby often holds a huge party in his
luxurious huge house. Nick always wonders how Gatsby can get a lot of money to
buy all of his luxurious things.
On the other side, Nick has a relative
named Tom Buchanan. He is a rich man who has a beautiful wife named Daisy. Nick
is so closed to both of them. Both of them also know about Gatsby because they
live close to Gatsby’s house. As Nick’s friendship with Gatsby is getting
better and closer, Gatsby reveals all of his secrets to Nick. He tells Nick
everything about his past that he was a very very poor boy. He got that wealth
by once he left his house to find a better life and suddenly he met someone on
the sea, who was fighting with thunderstorm as he tried hard to keep his boat. However
that man couldn’t do anything and Gatsby took a part of his wealth. And the important
thing Gatsby told him is that, his relationship with Daisy. Daisy is actually
his first love. However, because of his poorness at that time and he needed to
go for a while because of his duty as a new army member, finally Daisy married
with Tom Buchanan. And the reason why he keeps holding the party at his house
is that, he hopes that someday Daisy would come.
And because of Nick’s help, Gatsby and
Daisy can meet again. They meet together and confess that they are still in
love. They decided to elope because Gatsby is so sure that Daisy doesn’t love
Tom at all. However that plan is ruined. And why is that? How will their love
story end? I think you should watch this movie to find out the answer. I recommend
this movie is an outstanding romance movie that you guys need to watch. It uses
well-prepared and awesome editing and 3D effect. Furthermore, we can see the
gorgeous acting by Leonardo D’Caprio as Jay Gatsby, Tobey Maguire as Nick
Carraway, until special appearance from Indian famous actor Amitabh Bachchan. I
think this is a fantasy imaginative best romance movie I’ve ever seen.
