I'm sure that the music will join with the 3D, to be a
hammer for the rationalist to beat this film with; but I look forward to this
film more and more each month. I've never failed to be entertained by a Baz Luhrmann
film and most of them (Romeo & Juliet, Moulin Rouge, Strictly Ballroom) are
amongst my favourites. Certain to be visually stunning, likely to have a
soundtrack you’ll live your life to for
a few summers, and hopefully a great film will emerge as well...
Synopsis...
“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.”
