How did Leonardo in The Great Gatsby become rich overnight?

In my opinion, the release of "The Great Gatsby" in China at this time should have an allegorical social significance. This tragic story that took place in the American Golden Age in the 1920s is still relevant today. Chinese society is not out of date, with overnight wealth, rampant materialism, class opposition, and lack of human relationships... there is really nothing new under the sun.

It is hard not to make Hollywood crazy about such themes as the birth of the myth of self-made wealth and the destruction of innocent love in the past. Unfortunately, however, the adaptation of this seemingly "easy-to-please" work was not smooth.

Starting from the silent films released in 1926, the second year after the novel was published, filmmakers of different generations have made five attempts to reach the top of this "literary peak", including Alan Ladd, Betty Boop · Field, Robert Redford, Leonardo DiCaprio and other generations of well-known Hollywood movie stars have joined the cast, but there are few word-of-mouth works.

In "The Great Gatsby", Leonardo interprets the mature beauty of a middle-aged man to the extreme. Gatsby's mansion was full of music and music every night, and all kinds of people from all over New York gathered together. However, few people had seen the true face of the owner of this mansion. Gatsby's neighbor Nick Carraway (played by Maguire) "encountered" Gatsby at a night party. The latter was dressed in fine clothes, holding a tall wine glass and watching "Spider-Man" with a low smile. , gently told him: "I am Gatsby."

And when Gatsby was in front of the window of his room, silently watching everyone at the party, his expression was like a The king quietly observed the uninvited guests who broke into his palace. Except for the 1974 version, which won Oscars for costumes and music, the "Gatsbys" almost didn't win any major awards. Some critics bluntly pointed out that the screen adaptation of "The Great Gatsby" has never been successful!

But I still think this movie is successful, at least DiCaprio is successful, he is simply his So handsome, from a handsome young man to a middle-aged man. Do you like this drama? Welcome to leave a comment and tell us your opinions.
