JG - rectification

It has been brought to my attention by several of my readers that my focused commentaries on the movie The Great Gatsby were too critical and lacked a certain general appraisal.

I wish to appease this issue by simply agreeing with the masses: it was spectacularly filmed, the cast excellent, music and costumes absolutely enveloping and alluring, and the storyline one that matched the affluent of the 1920's. Yes, indeed. 

I too agree that it was a riveting film. 

In several of the party scenes I almost jumped from my seat to join the flapper dancing as if I were half-drunken on Gatsby contraband myself. 

In several of the scenes I cried with unidentifiable emotions so strong that I WAS DAISY. 

So yes, it was a jolly good film that I hope stays in the dollar theatre until the end of January.
