The Great Gatsby's Relevance A CATHOLIC TEEN'S PERSPECTIVE... - May 21, 2013 ... the mistake of fashioning his life around an earthly love, a worldly longing, as opposed to an eternal one. Thus, when Gatsby stoops to join the society around him in his efforts to be with his love again, his foundation being built on an unattainable, fallen person, he must suffer the consequences that come with believing "the end justifies the means". Though his hope is unfailing- and is a virtue to be admired- it was misplaced, and thus failed him. But he is not the only one who suffers, ...http://catholicteenperspective.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-great-gatsbys-relevance.html
The Long Slide From Gatsby SAINT LOUIS CATHOLIC - May 21, 2013 ... at 5 foot 8 inches—was asked whether he had loved the book and answered, "But I read the script, of course." No Fitzgerald expert he. The movie is exactly what I had predicted a couple of months ago: Pearls, cloche hats, dropped waists, and lots of fireworks. It's a tumultuous work that has about as much style as the fictional Gatsby parties. Still, it's a far better film than the Robert Redford version of 1974, where the wooden Redford was as believable as Gatsby as Rupert Everett was ...http://stlouiscatholic.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-long-slide-from-gatsby.html

We hear early on that he is a man of tremendous hope, and so we are hooked, because we like hope, we need hope. "Gatsby" is not a frothy, roaring 20's, "bright young things" romp. And the aspects of it that are are only there for a contrast to deeper issues, deeper matters, matter of the hearts, matters of character and goodness. You cannot even begin to imagine how characters will develop, how things will change at the end. Every time ...http://hellburns.blogspot.com/2013/05/movies-great-gatsby.html

Confessions From the Asylum - The Great Gatsby QUIET CENTER - May 12, 2013 ... annoying. DiCaprio's Gatsby is the movie's greatest and simplest special effect: an illusion mainly accomplished through body language and voice. On the printed page, the character is so mysterious, so much a projection of the book's narrator, that you'd think he'd be as unplayable onscreen. The actor's choices drive home the idea that Gatsby is playing the man he wishes he were, and that others need him to be. We see the calculations behind his eyes, but we also believe that he could hide ...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/POUzs/~3/PM7bPPy8FD8/confessions-from-asylum-great-gatsby.html

The city seen from the Queensboro Bridge is always the city seen for the first time, in its first wild promise of all the mystery and beauty in the world. (When Nick and Gatsby drive into town together.) This sentence—to my mind—rings as true now as it did in the twenties. The West Side, for good or ill, still stews in a kind of shtetl boredom compared to the East Side. – 3. Now it was a cool night ...http://frmarkdwhite.wordpress.com/2013/05/10/gatsby-sentences/
