However, it is challenging to mirror a classical novel with unique dialogue and phrases into a short film without significant changes. Luhrmann’s adaption features mostly the storyline presented in Fitzgerald’s novel. This critically acclaimed novel was adapted into a 2013 movie directed by Baz Luhrmann featuring Leonardo DiCaprio as Jay Gatsby and Tobey Maguire as Nick Carraway. Nick Carraway, a Yale University graduate from the Midwest, narrates the story from his point of view as he moves to New York post the First World War. The compelling story focuses on a self-reliant millionaire, Jay Gatsby, in his quest for his long-lost youth lover, Daisy Buchanan, an affluent young woman. The plot is set in the American jazz age in New York, reflecting the class differences in different parts, primarily the East and West.
The Great Gatsby is a classic American fiction novel by Francis Scott Fitzgerald, published in 1925.
