Movie Reviews of The Great Gatsby (A&E)

Movie Review: Not a bad movie!
Summary: 4 Stars

I've bought the 1974 version and was impressed by it. The 1974 version provided us with a perspective which is similar with the book. However, this 2000 version offered a different perspective to see the past of Gatsby and Daisy. It has more details about Gatsby and Daisy's love in the past which is origin from the movie director I think. In addition, this movie has more description of Carriway's relationship with Jordan. It's a fresh way to comprehend the book. Worthy of trying.

Summary of The Great Gatsby (A&E)

Studio: A&e Home Video Release Date: 01/30/2001 Run time: 100 minutes Rating: Nr

Boy loses girl, boy wins her back, boy loses her again and is killed in his pool. F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic Jazz Age tragedy once again makes a somewhat rocky transition from page to screen in this A&E production starring Academy Award winner Mira Sorvino as the feckless Daisy. This version has Paul Rudd (the stepbrother who got the girl in Clueless) doing the honors as narrator Nick, who reintroduces his married cousin to his lavish-party-throwing neighbor Gatsby. Toby Stephens captures the heartbreaking single-mindedness of Gatsby, although not once does the phrase "old sport" seem to fall naturally from his lips. Director Robert Markowitz uses flashbacks of Daisy and Gatsby's prewar courtship in an attempt to explain their reckless relationship, but they do little more than slow the pace of an already leisurely 93 minutes. The costumes and sets are opulent, however, and Montreal substitutes nicely for Long Island. --Kimberly Heinrichs
