    version of The Great Gatsby directed by Baz Luhrmann is a key example of this common issue‚ as the film is an adaption of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s 1925 novel. The film attempts to depict the events of the 1920’s while demonstrating the deconstruction of morals and ethics as many focused on economic and social gain instead.
