Out of the many people that attended gatsbys partys, not a single one of them went to his funeral or even offered a flower. Just comes to show out of the many people we call "friends" only the real ones end up showing in the most difficult of times. ),:
Possibly a bit late by then
In the book Gatsby farther actually shows up and talk to Nick which is a scene I wish they left in the movie but the movie still came out great
In the book the old man who had been checking out all the fake books came to the funeral, out of a sense of obligation for his host.
Owl eyes showed up
Erm... this is a movie, fiction. Scripted. Not real life.
Gatsby reaching for the Green Light is probably the most famous representation in all of literature of human longing for something that we cannot have, but the important thing is the striving, the reaching for something, having the ambition to achieve, a great American value. We all have something that we are longing for that we cannot or will not have. This is one one of the reasons why The Great Gatsby is THE Great American novel.
It should just a good human story.
I think I’d like it if it wasn’t forced in my English class, imo, I hate this book
Sally Hope explain I’m interested
Don‘t forget Ernest Hemingway ;)
Excellent point. F. Scott Fitzgerald also wrote a story called "Winter Dreams," which is similar to the Great Gatsby in terms of its themes and symbols. I'd strongly recommend that everyone read it.
The green light was behind him all this time...and then it shows Nick...Makes sense. Nick was the one who truly loved and appreciated Gatsby.
I think it's related to the fact that it was the past what he was pursuing. There is a line in the movie from Nick: "You can´t repeat the past". Gatsby was trying to achieve something it was already behind him, the past years, those we miss, those that are never coming back. There is a quote from Mary Ann Evans, aka George Eliot, the author of Middlemarch, it says: "a man’s past is not simply a dead history, an outworn preparation of the present. It is not a repented error shaken loose from the life: it is a still quivering part of himself, bringing shudders and bitter flavors and the tinglings of a merited shame (...) like when we look through the window of a lighted room and the objects to which we turn our backs are reflected before us, instead of seeing the grass and trees".
I like your perspective as well.
@@jonathanswift468 Yeah, your interpretation is more plausible for the book. It's just that in this particular movie that when Nick stops talking about the green light it cuts back to him. And...well,it's true that Nick was Gatsby's only true friend.
@@pinelopiliraki3660 Yes, there are many sides for this one coin.
@@jonathanswift468 That's the beauty of this story.
Hmm
I love how in that moment after he finished the book he still wasn’t satisfied he felt he knew something was missing then he saw the title and thought
“Gatsby…..no…..He was amazing….grand…..great……he was the Great Gatsby….”
And finish’s his masterpiece………
nick really was gatsby’s only true friend and the person who truly loved and cared about him.
Not at all.
Nick is clearly disingenuous about his actions after Gatsby's death...and he KNOWS the truth about the murder of Gatsby and does nothing about it. When Myrtle is being mourned by her husband...Nick says nothing to the police officer who is standing right there. He does nothing to stop Tom from influencing the husband.
THIS is one of the great truths that most people miss in the book. Nick is an unreliable narrator, and is reproachful of himself for being just as much a failed friend as he accuses Daisy and Tom of being.
@@dclark142002 His role is a narrator
@@lukeschofield574but that’s the problem; his narration is flawed, and that’s just human nature. he acts like he’s this unbiased man, when really, he’s just human, no better than most of us, and no different than any of us.
That’s why his actions look neutral to us, when really, he’s also trying to paint himself in a better light.
F.Scott Fitzgerald did a amazing job at depicting a biased, but clear perspective, one which paints a picture, but one that is also clouded in truths and lies.
Amazing.
@@dclark142002 yeah cuz gatsby literally told nick that no one should ever know that daisy was driving
If I remember correctly, Fitzgerald died believing that The Great Gatsby had been a failure, correct? If I am right, then I appreciate the green light as Nick writes the title. It is a bit ironic because the green light represents the desire to reach the unreachable. In Fitzgerald's head, I'm sure he thought The Great Gatsby would not get any success, but he did.
I heard that Fitzgerald thought this would have been his best work of art and believed he really outdid himself once he wrote it. I also believe that he was disappointed when the novel did not do so well after it was published. It wasn't until after Fitzgerald's death that The Great Gatsby really got any major attention. This is what My English teacher told us anyways.
So the green light was never reached. For it to be reached and to exist the reacher is needed.
The man was a true marvel it makes me so sad he thought he died as a failure. The modern library edition they stamped discontinued on it in 1934 because even 9 years later it still was rough for him. His last royalty check was for only 14 dollars. Poor old sport.
@@katiegates23 wow
That sucks
Tobey Maguire is such an underrated actor
and overrated poker player.
What a legend.
Kyle Campbell Probably the most underrated one
I don’t think he’s anything compared to so many other amazing actors in Hollywood today. In my opinion, he’s overrated
ne one_ _ ok? I’m glad I entertained you I guess. I’m not the biggest fan of it either but I’ve seen MUCH worse.
Anyway, Toby McGuire sucks in my opinion
I llike how Nick was portrayed Fitzgerald and Nick at the same time
A bit confusing, though
That's how the book meant to be. If you're gonna read it, it implied that The Great Gatsby was written by Nick
@@joycevillar6455 I remember the book implied it was a long journal entry, but not an actual book being written by Nick. Either way it was an interesting touch.
@@claudcopter9784 I really enjoyed the “first person” narration myself (I completed the book yesterday). I’m a bit more drawn in by that style and feels more autobiographical.
"So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past"
He went out to defeat the green goblin to avenge and show that Gatsby, truly did have a friend.
Damm bruh do you think there's other metaverses or worlds out there?
@@darksesh8247 the wisdom you seek is in the light 🕯️"He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end."
Harry"gatsby"osborn
Ironic considering the green goblin said the line “in spite of everything you’ve done for them, eventually they will hate you.” Also the line “the only thing the city loves more than a hero is to see a hero fall.”
Oh my gosh, every time I watch the ending of this movie I get chills. The cinemawork, the narration, the nature and themes of the movie and boot all come together to make something so eerie and bittersweet that cannot be matched by any other movie, imn my opinion.
i love this scene in the book even more, and how it all just ends on the last page. everything he said here is what’s in the book word by word. “Into the past.” and then it’s all blank. i cried sm reading
@@grrrohmy665 it's funny I came here after reading the book. I haven't watched the movie but I felt the book was so emotionless, dull and unrelatable while in the movie scenes the cinematography and music as well as the actors made it feel more real and in flesh. It's funny that I didn't feel any of it in the book.
@@mishelleilieva9657 , I felt the opposite about the book. The Great Gatsby was the first time I was struck by the ability of mere words to convey emotions and environment so well. The heat of the hotel room where they fight was so well described...and the way that Fitzgerald could convey each character so well without wasting time.
But this is the amazing thing about art...each person, on viewing it, brings their own self to the action...and therefore the value of the art to entertain is up to the audience as well.
Do not feel unhappy that the book didn't make you feel but the movie did. That is ok.
That final line...one of the most brilliant sentences ever written!!!!!
Anyone else find Tobeys voice soothing and satisfying
My favorite line: When he first meets daisy again after 5 years: "Possibly it had occurred to Gatsby that the colossal significance of that light had vanished forever. Now it was once again just a green light on a dock and his count of enchanted objects had diminished by one." Such powerful use of metaphor paired with word choice. Enchanted objects...
Every English teacher now do you see the significance of the green light?
The funny thing here is that it's ultimatly subjective.
i sure do now
And then he became spider man
Alex DG03 with great power, comes great responsibility old sport!
This movie came out after Spiderman
Aurelio Cardoso r/wooosh
spiderman's great grandfather
Except this movie takes place in the 20's, so he probably would've become the noir Spider-Man from Into The Spider-Verse. (I don't know anything about that character aside from what we see of him in that movie; I've never read a single Spider-Man comic in my life, and aside from the Spider-Verse, the only other Spider-Man media I've viewed is the Raimi Trilogy; so excuse my lack of knowledge.)
The way that Nick writes "THE GREAT" over Gatsby's name... 🥶🥶 chills
I LOVE THAT PART
@@chelinka777🥶🥶🧊🧊🧊 cold AF
The ending of this book is such as masterpiece, the way the last lines are written, Nick talking about brooding on the old, unknown world, its so beautiful
When i was younger, i believed that gatsby and daisy would be happy together. that some how it really was meant to be that they should have been together. It wasnt, and even if they had more time, she was a vapid materialist. He was a blind fool. Everyone in this story is wrong, and no one got what they wanted.
The main enemy was time for Daisy, she's no longer the young and innocent girl.
The main enemy for Gatsby was obsession and delusion.
Tom was just a douche.
Tobey did what he could i believe.
As a boat captain the last sentence of this novel always haunted me as a melancholic feeling. I just turn 30’s and can finally star seeing what he meat by “boats against the current, born back ceaselessly into the past” . No matter how far we go how much we accomplish we always go back to the past. Fitzgerald you are one of a kind 🥃
I feel like Gatsby would be a ghost always seen at the foot of that dock with his arm outreached
It would be a surprising twists if he was a ghost and none of the people Nick met didn’t existed but was all in his mind while being in New York somewhere tripping off some drug.
God damn this ending really is something I don't know Gatsby's death just kind of symbolizes how no matter how hard we try will never reach the point we want to get to really just kind of makes it thankful for everything you have already and where you're at
The role of great Gatsby playing by DICAPRIO just awesome 😣😣😣😣😣😣
Subhanjan Das your English is terrible
@@AladeenofWadiya1 yes, that's why I am I u r u

One hundred years later, the light still flashes.
Personal security, bodyguards. That’s the first thing you take care of when you’re rich. So many celebrities, from Tupac to Xxxtentacion, would be alive, if they had bodyguards.
Yup! Sadly, Gatsby fired all his staff including the guards. The only ones left at this point were his butler and the gardener.
do u want to live with bodyguards? what kind of sad life is that?
@@sharpie2405 would you rather be dead, or live with bodyguards. personally i'd choose the bodyguards
Tupac was betrayed by his guards(suge's cronies).
Its a movie
Just remember, write it down, if you have a story you can’t tell, write about it! So many great lives and stories that have only been recorded by wittiness of the events, if we didn’t all of what we know is lost, just write it down , anything you feel you need to leave for the world to know
You couldn’t be more right. I just spent a year writing a day by day memoir of the Covid-19 pandemic and there’s now a wealth of information that even surprises me when I look back on it.
What a beautiful thing to say.
This is such a great movie that got to much hate, you gotta watch it with your heart.
0:21 When you failed an exam and your friends can’t stop talking about his all A’s
Good performances on both Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire.
What’s crazy is they been friends since kids which makes the movie even better
The cinematography and effortless synchronising of modernity with this era in history was a joy to watch, or rather, experience.
I got to see it on the drive in screen and literal tears came to my eyes seeing this gorgeous masterpiece on a giant screen in the sky I just thought Scott Fitzgerald would be so proud of this movie if he were alive.
Such a powerful way to end a film like The Great Gatsby.
I wanted him to say “Who am I? You sure you wanna know?” at the end
Spider-Man
incorruptable dream... Thats what makes us who we are, that incorruptable feelings and beliefs, only being incorruptable to them will make us trully happy
Gatsby ghost : *with big powers come big responsibilities*
Probably one of the best literary works ever made, I've probably read it a dozen times.
Tobey McGuire is a great and unique actor!!!!!!!
Someday, we all reach for that green light. No matter how hard we try, we will never reach it. That’s what I got out of this. I’ve tried catching that green light twice, and I’ve failed both times. I see no sense in trying to reach for it anymore, because in the end, the light always dies out.
well, that's the thing buddy. you just gotta keep reaching for it. you may not get what you're reaching for but you may find something that you love with all of your heart somewhere along the way.
The green light isn’t exactly about love, it’s about longing for something that can’t be done.
It is really manifestations of gatsby’s unrealistic desires and expectations. He wishes can turn back the clock but that’s impossible no one can do that. Maybe you should seek meaning within things in life you already have that are more tangible and fulfilling. Maybe then, you won’t find a green light from a light house, but a tangible jewel within your own life.
Allen Liu Thank you for you kind words of advice. I only wish I heard them sooner.
@@allenliu489 you damn right
Tobey must felt different as he and leo are best friends in real life ;(
Yes since childhood
I shipped Gatsby and Nick so bad. Or at least their bromance. There’s a scene where Nick tells him, “you’re the whole damn bunch,” which shows that Nick was the only one who actually cared abt Gatsby.
Same
I don’t want to say shipping in a romantic way not being homophobic but it doesn’t work in romantic was but more in a bromance way
That’s kinda weird considering the two actors Toby and Leonardo are childhood friends. tbh, it was would’ve been a better relationship than with daisy, but that’s because she’s rather self centered.
Pretty much my favorite roles for both Toby and Leo.
I love the background music in this scene. It's sadly haunting🎻🎻🎻🎻
I love the spiritual and material symbolism behind this movie and it’s characters…
Just goes on to show how short life is on Earth for us individual human beings. As well as how it symbolizes the USA during those times (early 20th century) and today… a mushroom civilization or rather “a giant with feet made of clay.”
Behind all the glitz, glamour and material wealth is really just decadence, moral rot or petty problems. Wow, very powerful stuff!
Tobey's Nick in the Great Gatsby continues to be underrated.
This film was an absolute treasure. So beautiful from beginning to end.
What frustrates me so deeply is that Nick is the only person who knows the truth and he does nothing. but then you also realize that there is nothing Nick can do. if he speaks Daisy will go to jail, Tom could be charged, the whole thing is just too complicated and useless to come forward about now that Gatsby is gone. So Nick lives with that guilt
Exactly.
WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT GATSBY
Nick being the green light the entire time…truly the most poetic and tragic love story of all time (platonic and romantic)
The things that we chase and elude us. Just watched this again in 2024..
I'm kinda like in Gatsby's position in this part of my life and yeah it's about the 1st love of a blonde girl and I'm working hard in every aspect of my life to relieve what once was. I know it's stupid but it's my only way to heal.
I’m in the same exact position with a blonde girl too 💔

You can't repeat the past...
To me, this looks like he was waving to the light from the end of the titanic scene where everyone was being saved from the water.
I love violins in any movie!
I love VIOLENCE in any movie!!
Its amazing how hard this scene speaks to me and to my general detestation for people.
Gatsby loved the wrong, wicked woman all along. Had he realised which kind of person Daisy was, had he listened to Nick that night, he surely wont be waiting for Daisy anymore and live his life to the fullest.
The pain in Nicks eyes when he finishes the book
I'm so glad Nick gave honor to Gatsby by writing a fair book about him and who he truly was, I love them 💞
The past is where it belongs
WhiteDude Music exactly
I lost it. Cried.
Definitely one of my favorite movies of all time
I remember how much i cried when I first watched this in theatre. Like, it literally broke my heart ^^'
If I was in the Great Gatsby, I would of attended Gatsby's funeral due to how much he is kind to Nick. I watched this movie in my filmmaking class back in January. Now my English class is reading the book.
For me this will be the best movie/book of all times
So you're just going to disrespect Dostoyevksy, the man in your profile picture? The Great Gatsby is a very creatively made and well written book but it isn't anywhere near the best in my humble opinion.
@@AK47_414 okay? that’s your opinion? who asked?
@@iquit1044 Your mom asked
0:21 is my face when I hear someone talking mad crud for someone in Maguire distance
one of the best endings, man and also we need you back tobey..
An movie that haunts...the mystics of an great love although tragic ...still great!
I fell in Love once, his name was Toby C. M. He passed away in an accident in the year 2000
I know the feeling of that green light, it’s like letting go of all of the things of this world to reach towards what you have always needed the most.
this is definitely one of my scenes in all of the spiderman movies
A great movie!
In my movie universe, Nick Carraway is relating all of this to his granddaughter as an old man still living in NYC and his granddaughter grows up to be Spider Man’s mother.
I'll never get tired of this movie no matter how many times I watched it
This movie autoplayed on youtube one night and i woke about half thru...i loved it tho i never gave it a chance when it csme out..its really good
The beauty of this story is that Scott F. Fitzgerald learned the true cruelty of Gatsby’s life himself after his commercial success as a writer.
A life that drove his wife to increasing decadence, and himself to an early grave.
this movie deserved to get an oscar...but they weren't even nominated for best picture which is weird
Let us learn to show our friendship for a man when he is alive and not after he is dead.
It’s pizza time
TPXP underrated comment
A story about settling and what can happen to those who reach for more.
I don´t Know you but this Picture is fantastic for me, i would gave it oscars for best picture, best actor, best supporting actor, best actress and the other other awards they gave to them.
Beautiful beautiful movie and beautiful book
The narration is exceptional. the scene is phenomenal but sad, my favorite scene of the movie
Great rep for Something being so close, yet so far
Tobey with beard looks like Eminem 🤣🤣🤣
Gatsby is such a tragic character, he grew up in a very poor atmosphere and fell in love with a person who probably didn't really love at him at all. Maybe Daisy loved him a little but she mostly cared about if the person she was going to married was rich and could provide for her. Overall he did it all for nothing because Daisy was never going to leave Tom, he was more secure in his wealth than Gatsby. As Tom was old money and Gatsby was new money, with new money there's a lot more anxiety because one day it the money could be there and the next day no money. With old money yes you might lose a few bucks but you still have enough to still live "the life" and build yourself back up.
He deserves an oscar for this
Just finished this movie..... It's so good
I like The Great Gatsby re-read the book many times to appreciate it. I feel Tender is the Night could be also great, but kinda confusing, he wrote while drunk and delusional I think, maybe that is a good thing.
Wonderful film
Now dig on this
At the end tom and daisy died and that made so happy at the end of the story
Does anyone notice that Tobey Maguire looks similar to F. Scott Fitzgerald?
Beautiful story and a big message there
The T is a J and the two E's are different. Am I the only one haunted by this?
It's kind of symbolic for the "J" standing for Jay Gatsby.
The T and E are in cursive
While I don’t think he was a good Peter Parker / Spider-Man, I will NEVER say Tobey Maguire is a bad actor. The man can display rage, depression, confusion, and sadness in a single moment.
Not ever having watched the film or read the novel, I assumed from the title of this video that Maguire's character was going to get killed because someone did not pay attention to the traffic lights.
"They call it the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it." -- GEORGE CARLIN, RIP

Tobey 😍
Heart breaking💔
Old sport!💔
Ok, so I enjoy this movie, and Tobey Maguire was a great Nick, but does it bother anyone else that he wrote two completely different variations of "T" and "E" in "The Great" at the end of the clip?
this scene breaks my heart
