I honestly and completely tried to watch this movie as an objective party. As an English Major in college it is terrifyingly difficult to repress the bias I have towards F. Scott Fistzgerald’s The Great Gatsby. Don’t misunderstand me, even as a novel, I hated it. My sentiments have usually been that Fitzgerald is a lyrical god and that the infatuation with The Great Gatsby is solely related to its rather bumbling performance on the page, making it sadly attractive to those who don’t know any better. There is a standard, unfortunate or not, in both the literary and film worlds. What too few realize is that they are linked in so many ways and films about novels have to be careful about how they want to portray it on the silver screen.
By having an eccentric director like Baz Luhrmann, the producers opened a portal of aesthetic extremism. This is usually quite successful when Luhrmann is working from an original screenplay like Moulin Rouge! (2001) or Australia (2008), but choosing a piece that is so defined by its era of style has proven to be an impossible flunk for the modern generation. If nothing else, this movie completely captured the art of excess. From costumes to production design to the ridiculously comical use of green screen animation, it seemed as though Luhrmann ran out of creativity, resulting in cheapness of storytelling as a discourse. By splashing famous quotes in cute fonts across the screen, there is no mistaking that this has been done for those who can’t quite follow along. But hey, it sounds pretty and it looks nice.
Normally, Baz Lurhmann does a superb job telling a story, but it unfortunately becomes lost underneath the displaced rap music, overly choreographed fireworks (Gatsby’s entrance made the entire audience I was with laugh out loud), and horrible casting (save Carrie Mulligan as darling Daisy and Joel Edgerton as chauvinistic Tom).
Despite its flamboyant mistakes, Luhrmann manages to pay meticulous attention to the detail the novel provides. He even makes sure that poor Myrtle Wilson’s gash above her left breast is seen before her body goes flying through the air. Perhaps the film could have been salvaged had there not been a direct focus on appealing to a youthful, more ignorant generation. Not a single argument has been able to trump mine simply because no one has been able to answer “yes” when I asked them if they read the book. This earned an unsurprising one star as I simply could not answer “What were they thinking?!”
