It's a review, in Marcus's typical entertaining and very thoughtful style, of Baz Lurhrman's 2013 movie. Although the movie does not get mentioned until the last quarter of the book. Most of the book is discusses Fitzgerald and the various adaptations that came before. Marcus makes the 2013 movie sound way better than it actually is. If you're looking for a reason to like the movie, this book is for you. ( ) inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
Renowned critic Greil Marcus takes on the fascinating legacy of F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby. An enthralling parable (or a cheap metaphor) of the American Dream as a beckoning finger toward a con game, a kind of virus infecting artists of all sorts over nearly a century, Fitzgerald's story has become a key to American culture and American life itself. Marcus follows the arc of The Great Gatsby from 1925 into the ways it has insinuated itself into works by writers such as Philip Roth and Raymond Chandler; found echoes in the work of performers from Jelly Roll Morton to Lana Del Rey; and continued to rewrite both its own story and that of the country at large in the hands of dramatists and filmmakers from the 1920s to John Collins's 2006 Gatz and Baz Luhrmann's critically reviled (here celebrated) 2013 movie version--the fourth, so far.
