Mr. Hernandez Color Association in The Great Gatsby
The color I have chosen to represent in the Great Gatsby is the color grey. The reason I chose this color is because there’s a lot in the story that explains this color. The color grey in this book represents dull or not important. There was many items in the book that were unimportant and assumed to be the color grey. The items I chose to represent this color shows as followed: "grey little villages in France" (p. 48); "The grey windows disappeared" (at Gatsby's house, p. 91); " a grey, florid man with a hard, empty face" (p. 97). Another thing that is important to notice is Gatsby’s theme is mainly grey which can signify emptiness. Gatsby’s room is also grey in which is visually represented in the movie.
