Hi there! Thank you so much for your compliment. And yes, Baz is a great director I'm excited that he chose to bring Gatsby back to the screen. Hope to see you around more often. :)
As an Aussie I'm so excited by the abundance of Australian actors in this adaptation (Isla Fisher, Joel Edgerton, Jack Thompson, Vince Colosimo, Barry Otto... the list goes on!) and of course the amazing Baz Lurhmann directing. Our english class has just finished the novel, and we are all so excited to see this new adaptation. Hope it lives up to the excellent 1974 film with Robert Redford! Also, I've just discovered this blog, and I love love love it! My sister and I have been telling our whole lit class about it, you are just as excited about the things that I'm excited for, all the way on the other side of the world. Sorry, a really long comment, but I just had to tell you how excited I am :)
You have no idea how much your comment means to me. It's really a heartwarming feeling to know that my love for literature and its many forms are exciting people halfway around the world. Thank you so much for sharing my blog and I'm glad to know that I've had some type of small effect on you. And I absolutely do not mind long comments. They make my day actually :) But yes, I'm excited about the cast of this adaptation. I love the fact that Baz is creative enough to always shake things up so I know that this film will probably have some risks in it. I'm excited to see what's in store. I hope to see your comments around more often and once again I'm extremely happy that you like my blog. :)
Ahh! I totally had a fan girl moment when I saw this trailer, can Baz do anything wrong? So excited for this movie! And I LOVE LOVE your blog!
