Have you guys seen the new trailer for Baz Luhrmann's newest film Gatsby? I love the book and I adore Baz Luhrmann's films, so I can't wait to see this film! Who else is excited?

As a lover of all things Lurhmann and Fitzgerald, this trailer made me delirious with joy! Funnily enough, I just had a student tell me about it, saying he couldn't figure out what exactly the film was about from the trailer. He was trying to peg it into a neat genre hole. Just ride the story, son... :)
ReplyDeleteBetween The Great Gatsby and The Hobbit, I'll be doing a lot of reading in order to see the movies.
