    The movie adaptation of The Great Gatsby maintained true to the original book by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Although mostly everything seems to stay the same‚ some movie scenes differ.

    The Great Gatsby I: All throughout grade school and even high school‚ my teachers‚ parents‚ and even friends told me not to take the easy way out when it comes to books. Always read the book before the movie. I usually took the easy way out‚ watched the movie‚ and then skim the book. After doing this project I see what everyone was talking about.

    One of America’s most iconic novels‚ The Great Gatsby by F Scott Fitzgerald‚ was recently adapted into a film by the famous director Baz Luhrmann in 2013.
