Comparison Of The Great Gatsby: Book And Movie

The Great Gatsby is a very good book and movie. The characters in the book and movie are some what different but the same. The setting in the book and movie are different as well. Even the parties are pretty much similar in both the book and the film. The book and the movie are pretty much the same in my opinion. The characters in the book and movie are the same. Nick the narrator in the Great Gatsby. Gatsby the mysterious wealthy man that nobody knows anything about. Tom and Daisy who are married. Last but not least Myrtle the mistress of Tom. In the book we read that Nick went to Yale and is a honest man. “I am one of the few honest people that I have ever known.” (pg. 59) In the movie we see that Nick is an alcoholic when he goes to Tom's’
There Nick meets the neighbors of Tom and Myrtle. Later on at the party Tom breaks Myrtle’s nose. This is seen in both the book and the movie. The second party takes place at Gatsby’s house. Nick is the only one invited to the party. Everyone else seems to attend Gatsby’s parties without knowing Gatsby himself or without being invited. At the party Nick finally meets Gatsby and learns a little about about him. The third party was at Gatsby’s house but this time he invited more people. Gatsby invited Tom, Daisy and Nick this time to his party. This party was for Gatsby to show Daisy all the splendor and the elegance of his parties. At the party Tom runs off with some woman while Gatsby steals Daisy away to the gardens to talk with her in private. Later on at the party Nick will cover for Daisy and Gatsby’s disappearance. This is seen in both the book and the movie. Hence The Great Gatsby is a very good book and movie. The characters in the book and movie are some what different but the same. The setting in the book and movie are different as well. Even the parties are pretty much similar in both the book and the film. The book and the movie are pretty much the same in my
