    I like the book more than the movie. Audience reaction has to be taken into consideration in a way that books don’t have to. The audience‚ cannot‚ even for a moment‚ be confused as to who the "bad guy" is. Otherwise‚ you can have a teenage Scarface. "Moral Convenience" is what’s pissing you off.

This is the reason why fantasy-themed works

    explains he is in fact Gatsby. However in the movie Gatsby being played by Leonardo DiCaprio it would give it away that he’s the man Nick has been waiting to meet so instead Gatsby over hears Nick say he hasn’t met the host and Gatsby turns around and says I’m Gatsby.

In the book it seemed very much so that Jordan Baker and
