The Great Gatsby

This movie was very interesting. It seemed like all the rich people, Jay, Daisy, and Tom, all lost something very great in life. To me, Nick seemed to have to the best life, he did not have money, and that didn't matter. The American Dream was shown the same for the rich people, nice clothes, nice cars, big parties, a lot of attention. In the end this doesn't get them very far. It seemed like everyone was cheating on their spouses and lying and no one seemed completely happy. Nick on the other hand made a great friend and tried to help in anyway he could. I would rather be poor and happy, than rich and unhappy.

  1. I agree with you, how throughout the movie no one could really seem to find their happiness.

  2. I totally agree. It was like they could have everything they wanted but still find something to complain about.
