After watching the film‚ The Great Gatsby (2013)‚ I feel like as if the movie and film correlates together well‚ especially when it comes to the characters. Each of the characters from the film were well-played actors—I felt like none of them were miscasts—and I wouldn’t change a thing about it if I was the director of the film.

The Frankenstein book was a little long to read and not very interesting to me. The pictures were good to have to somewhat visualize what was going on‚ but otherwise the book was a waste of time to me. I could never really get into it very much making it difficult for me to read it without getting bored of it.
