For anyone that thinks that this scene was badly edited: it's supposed to be this way. It's fast paced, euphoric, and imperfect... It represents Gatsby's speech, and Nick's impression of him in this moment. If this scene feels like "it's on cocaine", it's because that's how Gatsby is behaving... He's being hyperactive, talkative, and unpredictable.

There is actually one interesting bit in this scene. At 0:43 Gatsby waves at a truck full of lower class workers. Gatsby was stressing about how rich and upper class he was, but paused to wave at the poor who obviously knew who he was and seemed to hold respect for him. Hinting that he has helped them out in some way or was kind to them. This right here is a sly hint that Gatsby is not as high class as he claims to be. Gatsby recognizes the struggles of the poor enough to care/acknowledge. No rich person would ever do that.

@pergys6991

3 жыл бұрын

MrTalkingCorn the difference between caring and understanding and actually being them is a massive difference a lot of people forget. Rich people do care but it’s impossible for them to actually understand the lower classes life because they’ve never been in the situation and as such, find it hard to really put themselves in their shoes. For example, a rich guy who grew up poor (like Gatsby) will obviously understand how the poor get by and as such, can relate to them on a deeper level. That doesn’t mean he completely cares but he still understands them. The rich guys son who was born after the father had his wealth will be unable to relate to them on that level because he hasn’t gone through what they and his father did. It may seemed flawed but asked yourself this: When you see a beggar on the streets or a war torn country being displayed in T.V, do any of your thoughts contain something like “Glad it’s not me”. This is exclusively for those who haven’t gone through those same experiences

@darkgirl9706

3 жыл бұрын

MrTalkingCorn it’s not that it’s too impersonal, but something they simply wouldn’t do. One thing to take into account is that in the book, and real life, there is a strong difference between new money and old money. Gatsby is *claiming* to be old money, but he’s not. And this scene shows this because of how friendly he is to non-rich people. Think about the scene in the speakeasy as well. Or the cop scene. These people adore Gatsby and respect him. They *like* him. No one likes Tom or Daisy, but they still bow down to them because elf their money. They don’t need to be likable. Their blue blood status allows them to get what they want with or without likability. I’m not saying that someone old money rich couldn’t form a connection with the poor, but they wouldn’t. There is no common ground between the two. Nothing to talk about or for them to understand. If an old money rich person donate to the poor, it’s because they think “oh it’s so sad THEY have to go through this. I gotta do something. :(“. It’s not a bad thing, but it’s distant. Meanwhile Gatsby is new money. If he is donating money it would be more along the lines of “I remember struggling like they did, I will help with what I can because I would have liked that when I was poor”. There is a sense of solidarity and unity, because he’s been in their shoes before.

He could have been honest but you know that he wanted his only true friend to think so highly of him.

Gentlemen: The Duesenberg in the movie is from 1932-1937 as it has a supercharger. If a model J has exterior sidepipes, it has a supercharger. The first Model J supercharger was built in 1932. The car is not correct for 1922.

While Gadsby was not poor in the financial sense, as he waived to those people from his car, he was poor in the meaning sense, and that is what made him relate to those poor people. Everyone is poor in some respect. And Gadsby was sharing the struggle with them, as not everything is always as it seems.

Fun fact, real Duesenbergs only had pipes on one side of the motor, thats how you can tell this is a copy,it has them on both sides.

That throwaway line of Jordan Baker being "an honest sportswoman [who] wouldn't do anything that wasn't alright" is actually genius. Jordan was a compulsive liar who cheated in golf tournaments and kept everyone at arm's length to protect herself. Nick eventually realized this, but Gatsby must've known from the beginning and was playing to her modern woman (Flapper) ideals to help in his scheme.

This looks like a cutscene from mafia definitive edition

The whole movie is very surreal

Gatsby drives like how most teenagers drive on a Friday night

I feel like lots or some of people who didn’t like the movie don’t understand it’s full of metaphors, and symbolism

In this scene it's clear that Gatsby drives a yellow car. Yellow was chosen because he likes it and he drove to get somewhere. You may have noticed his sunglasses. This was to stress that the sun can be damaging to your eyes. The car is a convertible because Gatsby likes the smell when driving by a bakery. The driving is over the top and fast, an allusion to 2008's Speed Racer, Gatsby's favorite movie. The characters Speed and Gatsby are very similar, both having brothers with chimpanzee friends.

Baz Luhrmann is just special

What a beautiful and fast car

Appropriate that Toby Maguire gets Leo’s sloppy seconds Spider-Man

Do you like old sports, old sports? Chess perhaps, but that's not an old sport is it?! That a game. This is debatable... 😆
