I love how Gatsby literally had the highest glitz and glamour in his home, but he never noticed the beauty in it until Daisy was there. He always thought of her as his center, the house just added to her beauty. Such amazing love.
It wasnt real love. Not after five years apart. Gatsby loved the idea of Daisy, his impression of her from the past, and made her the symbol of everything he wanted to achieve. He was in love with who she was five years ago, not who she really was by the time they met again.
KP Bennett he was at one point in love with who she was...but time had changed them both as it invariably does and Gatsby fetishized/became obsessed with turning back the clock. We’re all in love with elements of our past.
Bazz Luhrmann has a very strong and unique style, and a lot of people don’t appreciate it because it’s unusual and surprising. You’re very right, it’s art. It feels like a dream, takes you in a dream like world for 2 hours
I heard Luhrmann once said that he made movies the critics didn't really like but that the audiences did like. Which always made me think of the scene in his first real movie 'Strictly Ballroom' where Scott defends his improvised dancing by pointing out that the audience liked it and his dancing coach says 'Oh the audience! Well what would they know?'
I have to say my favorite part is when he’s throwing the shirts at her and she’s jumping around and then began crying. It’s so powerful it gives me the chills
She couldn’t handle all of his love. It was over baring for her, her husband didn’t even show of love like that- I don’t think anyone truly showed her love like Gatsby.
@@ElizabethJallah she regretted that she didnt wait for him. She was pressured to marry for money. While she had no love for his husband, she loves her child and her current life and she can't just drop that for Gatsby.
This scene was the real ending. Everything after this was written for stupid people who need drama and a tragic ending. For me this was a rags to riches / love story and Gatsby got the girl. The end. Fk the rest of it, made no sense anyway. "here, dude I hate, have my car keys" lmao what? The whole "tell him you didn't love him" thing like I feel like a woman wrote that. What kind of needy fk says that? IDK maybe that's what people were like back then or something. I would have played a little harder to get with Daisy...once he got her, it was over. She was already looking for a reason to leave Tom, the cheating asshole, so all Gatsby had to do was show up to win lmao. Whole ending is bullshit. Realistically Gatsby would have won.
You haven’t read the book perhaps; she deserved better too. Pretty much everyone concerned deserved better than the lives they were living, which in the case of the wealthy… money did precisely nothing to fix. It’s not just a tragedy for those who die in the end, it’s a tragedy because love loses to the “comforts” of money, and callousness and cowardice wins. Daisy was tragically weak, and trapped, and scared… she was a too afraid to leave a five year marriage and daughter with Tom for her true love, Jay Gatz… who regrettably wasn’t a socially candidate during their courtship prior to marrying Tom Buchanan. You want a modern analogue? The character Rachel from The White Lotus, the wife who feels she’ll always “just be a plus one,” to her wealthy husband.
Cody Crest you guys forgot how Daisy left at the end of the movie with Tom who used to cheat on her all the time? And Nick was the only person on Gatsbys funeral? Nick isn't a third wheel, actually I think his friendship with Jay is even more important than Jays and Daisys relationship or how people might call it..
Just noticed that when Daisy comes running into the room with the Organ, she stands directly at the center of a motif on the floor with the initials "JG", symbolizing how Gatsby saw her as the center of his entire universe. Love the subtle imagery in this movie and in this scene particularly. Wonderful cinematography.
Coming back to this scene, I realized I got something wrong. Daisy doesn't stand directly in the center of the symbol, but steps forward as if to enter it, but steers her foot away at the last second. I still think that symbolizes how Gatsby wanted her to be the centerpiece of his life, especially since he asks Nick immediately afterwards "she makes it look so splendid [the house], doesn't she old sport?" But I think it's also foreshadowing how Daisy decides not to choose Gatsby over Tom in the end. She almost does. She almost steps within the center, but at the last minute, she changes her mind. Typically, the shirt scene is recognized as the first indication that Gatsby and Daisy's relationship is doomed to fail, but we can see that as early as the Organ scene, she was already beginning to slip away from him. Idk. Maybe I'm overthinking it? That's how I interpreted it though.
He’s still got the same smile as he did when he was younger. The part when he’s throwing the clothes his smile is amazing, reminds me of him in titanic. I love leo so much.
I feel like people keep making good-humored fun about Nick being the third wheel (and it's very much implied in Nick's narration of being within and without) but, in all honesty, I can see how Gatsby truly values his friendship with Nick. He wanted to invite him - not just as a cautionary witness so that no rumors spread between Gatsby and Daisy without a chaperone in this house tour - but as a friend. He wanted himself and Daisy to share the moment with Nick. Not just the couple with the friend tagging along. The two of them SHARING it with him. Gatsby had no REAL friends. Just those fun-seeking strangers who came to his parties, only to desert his memory as soon as he was tragically and wrongfully killed. Those strangers and shallow relationships fun, but fleeting. In Nick, Gatsby saw someone who would stand by him while he tried to gain something (Daisy) he truly wanted.
Stark contrast to when Tom drags Nick to his flophouse to bang his sidepiece, because it was ONLY about Tom. Gatsby included Nick with the notion that Nick was to enjoy it as well.
I'm not sure if that makes Nick's third wheeling better or worse. It's like really reaaally wanting your best friend on a date. It makes you a great friend for wanting to share all with your bestie but it makes the audience wonder who you really want to date. The whole scene has Gatsby treating Daisy like a buyer and him a real estate agent. He only seemed comfortable in the small snippets where Daisy was busy being glamorously in the background while he and Nick share a whisper about how glamorously glamorous she is.
Tobey Maguire was honestly the perfect choice for Nick Carraway, he has the good-natured charm that allowed for the audience to feel like they’re watching as him.
Me “he loved the idea of her” that was deep. And something I can actually relate to. It’s like missing an Ex but the part you’re missing isn’t there anymore.
@@Kreamations Sometimes it never was there. We can get attached to the words that people say or the things they do and create a fictitious idea of what type of person would say those words or do those things. The words themselves don't define the person, as anyone can say anything. People can act in a manner that isn't true to who they are, as influences change our behavior drastically. To love someone, and not an idea of someone is to comprehend nearly all of their life and what kind of person they are despite influences. We must remain careful not to romanticize ideas due to our perceptions. Just as Daisy sat and talked to Gatsby prior to the war and he fell in love with the idea of who she was with those circumstances at play. Gatsby perceived Daisy as the wonderful, playful person that was going to fit right into his predetermined world. Gatsby didn't truly love Daisy, as he would've needed to allow her to be with Tom if that were the case. Daisy was the person who chose Tom and so loving Daisy would mean loving that she chose Tom after Gatsby went to war. I write this comment for me just as much as I write it for anyone. If anyone has something to add that may benefit me, I beg them to do so. I don't comprehend relationships as well as I hope and it appears the only real way to do so is by interacting with others.
Yeah exactly haven’t read the book but I can see it from the movie. He is trying to tame an animal and fill his house with her. Because he has everything he is left to desire love and warmth but he doesn’t see it as emotion and an equal bond but as an object that can be attained like all his others.
This scene hits on such a deep level, really is surreal, especially with Lana's voice, don't think any other movie scene gets to me on such an emotional level
The fact that this whole cast and crew didn't not win best picture, best actor, best supporting actor, best actress and many other categories is a disgrace to a cinema masterpiece.
It really isn't that great of movie, the visuals are great but except caprio, everyone had a bit of overacting .. just in this scene alone, the lady is overacting so much.
Blishered Crushing no, seriously. The movie really isn’t that good. Haha very funny, it’s great because it has great in the name. As if that joke hasn’t been done a thousand times before. The visuals of this movie are STUNNING. There’s no denying that. But the movie itself has nowhere close to the amount of heart the book had. The only good part of the movie was the ending because it stayed true to how the book wanted you to feel. But I think the biggest problem with the movie is that the characters are so likable. In the book, they’re all very morally grey but in the movie you have no choice but to like everyone and that made it so much worse for me. And the movie focused so much more on making itself look beautiful rather than creating a fleshed-out and dazzling plot alongside it.
Or alternatively, he's suffocating her with his new wealth, which rains down on her. Apparently Fitzgerald said in an interview that the reason Daisy cries and then just comments on the shirts is because he himself didn't know how to capture such a powerful moment. It couldn't be contained in words so had to be conveyed almost trivially.
DANI G it is true that this is the case but I don't know if we can say for sure exactly why she cries at this moment. I feel like it's intentionally ambiguous. Nick, for example, thinks it's because she's shallow and superficial and doesn't really love Gatsby, while another argument could be that she's simply overwhelmed. OR your point is another layer to this. I don't think there has to be an either or.
Gatsby's infatuation with Daisy is fueled by his romanticized perception of her and the life he envisions with her. He becomes fixated on the idea of Daisy as a symbol of wealth, status, and beauty, rather than truly understanding her as a complex individual. This idealized version of Daisy ultimately leads to Gatsby's downfall, as he places her on a pedestal and fails to see her flaws and shortcomings. Gatsby's inability to reconcile his idealized vision of Daisy with the reality of who she is highlights the tragic nature of their relationship. His love for the idea of Daisy, rather than the actual person, contributes to his eventual demise and serves as a critique of the shallow and materialistic values of the Jazz Age society depicted in the novel.
In the book she is not so complicated at all she said the best thing for a girl to be is a fool she didn't want to make a choice she wanted what was easy she chose Tom.
I agree with most of what you said, especially about Gatsby putting her on a pedestal. While i believe his love blinded him, I truly believed he loved Daisy. I believe he lives of his love for her which was his downfall. It made him ignore the signs she gave him and in the end his love for her is what killed him. I love your opinion though.
Bylee Malox I felt shivers everywhere when this scene came on at the movie was watching at the cinema. This is extraordinary...Lana is a goddess and she deserved this scene and many more
This song practically MADE this scene. I don't think it would have stuck in my memory as much as it did if not for this song. This song is literally what made me want to watch the movie considering I had never read the Great Gatsby before or watched any previous iterations.
My favorite part is how he tells nick he likes how the house catches the light like that, and Daisy walks in front of his mansion, the beautiful scenery, the glittering fountain, the color scheme, the fresh trees and all he looked at was her. His beautiful house and he says "she makes it so splendid, doesn't she old sport?" Always her. I wish I could be a daisy.
Daisy’s a complete bitch. It’s hard to see that in the movie because Carrie Mulligan is really likeable (imo) but if you read the book/have read you’ll know what i’m talking about
Charlie I think quite the opposite actually. I’ve read the book and I was quite disgusted by Daisy especially the final scene which never made it to the final cut of the movie when she meets nick later. However, I think there is so much depth to her character and so many layers of emotion that it’s wrong to just call her a bitch, as it doesn’t serve justice to her character. Personally, I think she just realized it was too late for her and Gatsby to be together, she adapted to her circumstances and moved on. But as it is in art, no interpretation is totally wrong so your point is just as valid
M G yeah i’ve read the book too and i agree. i find daisy hard to dislike but i know i’m meant to as she as fitzgerald wrote her in to be disliked. she’s supposed to be a “bitch”. but i do agree there is more to daisy than just thag
The way the song plays as Gatsby throws the shirts on Daisy as she says “Jay, stop it” and laughs hysterically and the way he looks at her like nothing else matters in the world is just so breathtaking. They could have had this. They could have been together forever, but sadly tragedy struck. This movie pays amazing respect to the book. I get carried away watching this scene. It’s just so heartbreaking but it makes you fall in love with their story and their history at the same time. ☹️❤️
I love the way Daisy speaks- it's so soft and sweet. With that light airy-ness towards the end of her lines. It reminds me so much of the classic movies from the early-mid 20th century during the Golden Era of film making. It's subtle, but it adds so much to the time and era the film takes place in.
@@nikeeweston I mean, Gatsby was no better, lol. Objectifying her, putting her to an insane standard, only wanting her as a trophy and for her wealth, tricked her into bed with him by pretending to be rich, and trying to control her past. Not the type of guy anyone should want to be with, and same for Daisy. None of the characters in the novel were really "good."
@@Someone-ig7we "Tricking her into bed with him by pretending to be rich." That's a bit ironic, as it implies Daisy would only sleep with a rich man. That's definitely not taking a moral high ground either. Also, you act like Gatsby's American Dream journey is a bad thing. Joining the military to become one of many and hide the poverty he was born into (which he can't help obviously). I don't agree with those pieces of the argument. I also feel like I interpret the story differently than you.
Yes Daisy was materialistic, but she doesn't really get emotional because of the beautiful shirts. She is sad because she chose wealth with Tom over love with Gatsby. Now she realizes she could have had both if she would have waited for Gatsby when the war was over.
Add Mnss OMG THANK YOU. I've read the book, and everyone hates Daisy, but in my opinion it was about the battle between the want for love and the want for money, but she wanted both and felt she could never have it. In my opinion it's actually Gatsby who was the creator of all the drama, he was the one who created a whole fake cloak of lies about himself and persistently broke into their lives and had a deluded sense of reality because of the way he romanticized their past and how he believed Daisy could sort of refill his life and make it back to the way it was.
Wolf Maiden Yes, I've always found Gatsby a bit annoying. I appreciate his sincerity but there comes a time where you need to realize you can't change something. "Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."
Aceris actually, I had a girl who I was with and like no matter how much I wish I could change the past or get her back and make my life the way it used to be, no matter how much I loved her, well I realized that you can never make it the same again. And tbh who's the creepy one, the person who eventually got with the person someone else wants, or the one barging into someone else's life on account of their own inability to move along?
Add Mnss I read it as if she realized Gatsby isn't in the same social class. The men wear non fluorescent clothes. Usually always white. Gatsby is throwing shirts in all colors. Also throughout the book green is symbolized by money and other things Yellow in the sun and in color of the car that killed Myrtle. So three colors symbolized were white, green, and yellow. Aka the colors of a daisy
i love this Scene the Music fits it so well... this movies just faszinate me one of the best movies i ever watched . when the gates opened and the Music starts i just get goose bumps
This is by far my favorite scene not only because it brings to life their love Fitzgerald described in the book but encapsulates the bitter sweetness of their forbidden love in some sense. Lana's voice truly represents the bitter sweetness of love...her voice is MESMERIZING
Carey Mulligan was an excellent choice for Daisy. The fact people genuinely despise her is a credit, because that was how F Scott Fitzgerald wrote her.
I have often heard the saying, "everyone suffers"....the rich, the poor and everyone in between. I actually feel sorrow for almost all the characters. Daisy was born into privilege and Gatsby knew that. He was the one that didn't come back from the war and when Daisy got his letter, she was ready to call off the wedding to Buchanan. She was forced to marry Buchanan as calling off the wedding would have been shocking and social suicide for her and her family. She struggled with the love she had for Gatsby and the life and respectability she built with Buchanan. The story takes place in a different era....divorce was unheard of and brought substantial shame with it. She wanted to run away with Gatsby and that was most likely in her mind the only way they could be together. Buchanan is the one character that I had no sympathy for due to his cruelty to Daisy, Mrytle and really everyone he came in contact with. This is one of my favorite movies and favorite songs as well. Thank you for posting it.
Ms. DK Couldn't have agreed more. Tom is an a-hole in both the book and the movie. His smug face and that he's cheated on Daisy for a sub-standard girl like Myrtle is just beyond disgusting if you ask me.
Tom's only fault is that he thought money could buy everything he wanted, including women, which is true to some extent. Neither Daisy, nor Myrtle were ever with him because of who he is as a person, but because he was rich, which is why I accuse the women in this novel being the cause of most problems. Daisy was like a carefree child who thought there are no consequences or actions, as her husband and family were always there to clean up after her. She never learned in the end either. Gatsby was an idiot for chasing some woman from 5 years ago who was married and had kids who doesn't even care about him enough to attend his funeral. All of this was like a game to Daisy, but full-on serious for Gatsby. I pity such foolish men. Feel bad for Wilson too. He was manipulated, first by his wife, then by Tom and in the end they made him into a guilt-ridden murderer who had to kill himself.
Just seeing Gatsby’s genuine smile of joy when he’s throwing the clothes on Daisy, thinking that he got back what he once had is heartbreaking, as well as heartwarming. It’s just amazing to watch the range of emotion in this scene and the innocent joy.
People who say, "She's not even that hot." That's the point, he didn't love her for her beauty. Because he could have all the women in the world with his money but he chose daisy.
Hamza Flash couldn't agree more. that's why I loved there love story so much. it's so unfortunate and sad how it all end. could of ended so differently :(
Hamza oh you moron no did you not read the book? She was supposed to be beautiful, him not loving her for her looks rather than her personality was never a theme in the book. This was such a poor interpretation of a wonderful novel.
Gatsby doesn’t have many friends. So when he invites Nick to come along with him and Daisy you can sense the gratitude and grace in Gatsby because it’s the first time he ever had a real friend. Someone who always has his back.
This scene is far by the MOST magical scene I've ever seen in a movie. I can't explain the feelings I feel when I see this scene. And the best part is the feeling is the exact same I felt when I first saw this scene.
Even though Nick had pretty much the best connection in the world with one of the richest people, he never really let that get to his head. He lived in his small cottage and admired Gatsby. He was Gatsby’s only true friend. The person who was with him with Daisy in this scene, the person who was always there for Gatsby even to the end of Gatsby’s time, Nick was with him even though no one else was(besides his dad). Most people would never go to something if they knew they were going to be the only one there. That just shows how much Nick cares about Gatsby. Not for his wealth, but because of friendship. You don’t find that too often. That is something to be admired and cherished because it only rarely comes by.
01:21-01:26 The way he looks at her❤️this whole scene is so beautiful and Lana Del Rey’s song was perfect for this movie😭couldn’t have chosen anyone better
this seems to prove that Gatsby wasn't in love with her but more of what she represents, " how she catches the light," "how she makes it look so splendid," more on how she looked and how she made the place look than her.
Hes been wanting her for such a long time. He means she completes the picture, she is the masterpiece that brings everything together. That's how in love he was with her but well she is selfish
@@emimh6060 He didn't love her. She was the unobtainable, wealthy "golden girl" that he wanted to possess and be a part of that world. Daisy would never have been able to live up to the fantasy he had created in his mind.
to everyone who said that their love story is beautiful, whatever - it’s not even love. gatsby was just enraptured by everything she represented to him when he was a soldier - wealth, money, fame, perfection. in his head he’s built up this version of her that in reality she will never fulfill. he’s not in love with her - he’s in love with the idea of her.
Isn't that every relationship... you don't really know your family, parents, relatives, spouses even. You love the idea of what you think they represent...
@@LSSYLondon Agreed. Many argue that Jay loved Daisy at one point in time, and that's the idea of her the he loved. But if we have to love a person no matter how much he/she changes, isn't that just similar to loving a different person altogether. Lol
That's the message of the book, and Daisy was just a gold digger. But this scene made it really difficult for anyone that hasn't read the book to understand that, because it was filmed and written so beautifully. In this scene, they truly do seem so in love and it makes it difficult to realize that they are not actually
I just finished reading the book at school and honestly I fell in love with the book, not only that but the movie as well. It’s so beautiful and I don’t think anyone understands how much the great Gatsby means to me. Best book I’ve ever read
this scene is so beautiful and magic. it seems unreal. Gatsby is such an amazing charter and Leo plays him in a perfect way, so handsome, so intense and deep. Gatsby is the man of dreams. Daisy is so lucky. the music is perfect, it seems like also they can listen to it. 1:16 all he have done, he did for her. I wish I could have a Gatsby in my life, I wish I could be Daisy, I wish I could have the hope that him has and the patience and the passion. the end is sad, but really significant.
This scene is one of the best in the movie because all the 3 actors have done a splendid job. It is also one of the most symbolic scenes in the movie because here we really see Gatsby's relationship with Daisy...
What's interesting about this is how the colors and the grandeur of everything, it seems fake somehow. And that contributes to the theme of people putting up facades to the person who they really are inside. Cool book, cool movie.
Oh please don't. He objectified her and treated her like a trophy. He didn't care what she thought in the scene where he confronted Tom. He tried to control her past. He's an awful person to love. All of the characters were awful. Please, get yourself someone better :(
@@thelastlegbender7903 yup no Men should ever fall in love with a girl like Daisy who just uses others for her own means that's what she did with Gatsby
Glad to see Spider-Man is still taking photos

KP Bennett he was at one point in love with who she was...but time had changed them both as it invariably does and Gatsby fetishized/became obsessed with turning back the clock. We’re all in love with elements of our past.

Bazz Luhrmann has a very strong and unique style, and a lot of people don’t appreciate it because it’s unusual and surprising. You’re very right, it’s art. It feels like a dream, takes you in a dream like world for 2 hours
Good way of explaining that

This scene was truly goosebumps inducing. I was completely mesmerised and sucked into it. He deserved better.
2:07-2:32 is so fucking beautiful.
his flaw was seeing daisy as an object rather than as a person, daisys flaw is obviously being an unfaithful wife
This scene was the real ending. Everything after this was written for stupid people who need drama and a tragic ending. For me this was a rags to riches / love story and Gatsby got the girl. The end. Fk the rest of it, made no sense anyway. "here, dude I hate, have my car keys" lmao what? The whole "tell him you didn't love him" thing like I feel like a woman wrote that. What kind of needy fk says that? IDK maybe that's what people were like back then or something. I would have played a little harder to get with Daisy...once he got her, it was over. She was already looking for a reason to leave Tom, the cheating asshole, so all Gatsby had to do was show up to win lmao. Whole ending is bullshit. Realistically Gatsby would have won.
You haven’t read the book perhaps; she deserved better too. Pretty much everyone concerned deserved better than the lives they were living, which in the case of the wealthy… money did precisely nothing to fix. It’s not just a tragedy for those who die in the end, it’s a tragedy because love loses to the “comforts” of money, and callousness and cowardice wins. Daisy was tragically weak, and trapped, and scared… she was a too afraid to leave a five year marriage and daughter with Tom for her true love, Jay Gatz… who regrettably wasn’t a socially candidate during their courtship prior to marrying Tom Buchanan. You want a modern analogue? The character Rachel from The White Lotus, the wife who feels she’ll always “just be a plus one,” to her wealthy husband.
@@user-np8yf8fj2w As an object? You're retarded.
dam nick must be the biggest 3rd wheel in history
Cody Crest he's only there so the book can have a narrator
Cody Crest you guys forgot how Daisy left at the end of the movie with Tom who used to cheat on her all the time? And Nick was the only person on Gatsbys funeral? Nick isn't a third wheel, actually I think his friendship with Jay is even more important than Jays and Daisys relationship or how people might call it..
psst. *whipers* some say he's gay for Gatsby...
I've also heard people say he was Spider-Man.
SR De Asis lol I c that
Just noticed that when Daisy comes running into the room with the Organ, she stands directly at the center of a motif on the floor with the initials "JG", symbolizing how Gatsby saw her as the center of his entire universe. Love the subtle imagery in this movie and in this scene particularly. Wonderful cinematography.
Holy sht I didn’t even see that thank you for pointing it out
What's JG?
They’re Gatsby’s initials
Coming back to this scene, I realized I got something wrong. Daisy doesn't stand directly in the center of the symbol, but steps forward as if to enter it, but steers her foot away at the last second. I still think that symbolizes how Gatsby wanted her to be the centerpiece of his life, especially since he asks Nick immediately afterwards "she makes it look so splendid [the house], doesn't she old sport?" But I think it's also foreshadowing how Daisy decides not to choose Gatsby over Tom in the end. She almost does. She almost steps within the center, but at the last minute, she changes her mind. Typically, the shirt scene is recognized as the first indication that Gatsby and Daisy's relationship is doomed to fail, but we can see that as early as the Organ scene, she was already beginning to slip away from him. Idk. Maybe I'm overthinking it? That's how I interpreted it though.

I wish the choir at 2:09 and Lana's humming at 2:15 were on the soundtrack album. Unbelievable, gives me shivers.
Love that part too

It makes me feel some type of way for some reason
Sadly, they never released that specific song.
I love this movie. Every movie with Leo is MASTERPIECE. He should collect many oscar awards...
movie was based off a book
apo5 for damn sure
Give this man an Oscar already
Leo is a masterpiece that’s why movie look good
B B are you living under a Rock ?
I really can't figure out why, but this is my favourite movie scene of all times
teoyears same

Same
Bc it captures what we all want someone so mesmerized and in love with us..
teoyears same, i always have goosebumps when i watch this scene
He’s still got the same smile as he did when he was younger. The part when he’s throwing the clothes his smile is amazing, reminds me of him in titanic. I love leo so much.
Me too 😍 Not only handsome but such an amazing actor
I still come back to this scene every once in awhile
Same. It offers a breath of escapism from reality in a way that is soo tragic yet alluring.
I feel like people keep making good-humored fun about Nick being the third wheel (and it's very much implied in Nick's narration of being within and without) but, in all honesty, I can see how Gatsby truly values his friendship with Nick. He wanted to invite him - not just as a cautionary witness so that no rumors spread between Gatsby and Daisy without a chaperone in this house tour - but as a friend. He wanted himself and Daisy to share the moment with Nick. Not just the couple with the friend tagging along. The two of them SHARING it with him. Gatsby had no REAL friends. Just those fun-seeking strangers who came to his parties, only to desert his memory as soon as he was tragically and wrongfully killed. Those strangers and shallow relationships fun, but fleeting. In Nick, Gatsby saw someone who would stand by him while he tried to gain something (Daisy) he truly wanted.
Ur comment deserves more likes. And I love what u said about Gaspy wanting to share the moment with Nick.
Stark contrast to when Tom drags Nick to his flophouse to bang his sidepiece, because it was ONLY about Tom. Gatsby included Nick with the notion that Nick was to enjoy it as well.
Well said, old sport.
I'm not sure if that makes Nick's third wheeling better or worse. It's like really reaaally wanting your best friend on a date. It makes you a great friend for wanting to share all with your bestie but it makes the audience wonder who you really want to date.
The whole scene has Gatsby treating Daisy like a buyer and him a real estate agent. He only seemed comfortable in the small snippets where Daisy was busy being glamorously in the background while he and Nick share a whisper about how glamorously glamorous she is.
Tobey Maguire was honestly the perfect choice for Nick Carraway, he has the good-natured charm that allowed for the audience to feel like they’re watching as him.
*Lana should have won an oscar for this song, Why does everyone snub her?*
Catastrophe Cause PREAACH
because she attracts troll freaks
She doesn't know how to sing.
@@emacias1980 what does knowing how to sing mean to you? Her voice is haunting, sweet, and mesmerizing.
@Melancholic i am aware lol
It was so hard reading the book because of how much Gatsby "loved" Daisy. He loved the idea of her, not her and that's what killed him.
Me She was the American dream that he so desperately wanted.
I was literally about to cry when he died. 💔💔😰😰
Me “he loved the idea of her” that was deep. And something I can actually relate to. It’s like missing an Ex but the part you’re missing isn’t there anymore.
@@Kreamations Sometimes it never was there. We can get attached to the words that people say or the things they do and create a fictitious idea of what type of person would say those words or do those things. The words themselves don't define the person, as anyone can say anything. People can act in a manner that isn't true to who they are, as influences change our behavior drastically.
To love someone, and not an idea of someone is to comprehend nearly all of their life and what kind of person they are despite influences. We must remain careful not to romanticize ideas due to our perceptions. Just as Daisy sat and talked to Gatsby prior to the war and he fell in love with the idea of who she was with those circumstances at play. Gatsby perceived Daisy as the wonderful, playful person that was going to fit right into his predetermined world. Gatsby didn't truly love Daisy, as he would've needed to allow her to be with Tom if that were the case. Daisy was the person who chose Tom and so loving Daisy would mean loving that she chose Tom after Gatsby went to war.
I write this comment for me just as much as I write it for anyone. If anyone has something to add that may benefit me, I beg them to do so. I don't comprehend relationships as well as I hope and it appears the only real way to do so is by interacting with others.
Yeah exactly haven’t read the book but I can see it from the movie. He is trying to tame an animal and fill his house with her. Because he has everything he is left to desire love and warmth but he doesn’t see it as emotion and an equal bond but as an object that can be attained like all his others.
This scene hits on such a deep level, really is surreal, especially with Lana's voice, don't think any other movie scene gets to me on such an emotional level
The fact that this whole cast and crew didn't not win best picture, best actor, best supporting actor, best actress and many other categories is a disgrace to a cinema masterpiece.
You said didnt not, so did they win?
Chad Steele I love Leo’s performance and the cinematography but this movie was not very good lol
It really isn't that great of movie, the visuals are great but except caprio, everyone had a bit of overacting .. just in this scene alone, the lady is overacting so much.
@Blishered Crushing :s thats weird
Blishered Crushing no, seriously. The movie really isn’t that good. Haha very funny, it’s great because it has great in the name. As if that joke hasn’t been done a thousand times before. The visuals of this movie are STUNNING. There’s no denying that. But the movie itself has nowhere close to the amount of heart the book had. The only good part of the movie was the ending because it stayed true to how the book wanted you to feel. But I think the biggest problem with the movie is that the characters are so likable. In the book, they’re all very morally grey but in the movie you have no choice but to like everyone and that made it so much worse for me. And the movie focused so much more on making itself look beautiful rather than creating a fleshed-out and dazzling plot alongside it.
something I notice is how he is raining clothes down on her is symbolism for how he is trying to win her over with gifts
Yup I wrote on essay about the fantastic symbolism in the Great Gatsby, I absolutely love the book and this movie
Neha Vats no actually it's about money and how gatsby went from rich to poor and how daisy values money.
Or alternatively, he's suffocating her with his new wealth, which rains down on her. Apparently Fitzgerald said in an interview that the reason Daisy cries and then just comments on the shirts is because he himself didn't know how to capture such a powerful moment. It couldn't be contained in words so had to be conveyed almost trivially.
Enclownter daisy cries cause she realizes Gatsby isn't in the same social class and will never be.
DANI G it is true that this is the case but I don't know if we can say for sure exactly why she cries at this moment. I feel like it's intentionally ambiguous. Nick, for example, thinks it's because she's shallow and superficial and doesn't really love Gatsby, while another argument could be that she's simply overwhelmed. OR your point is another layer to this. I don't think there has to be an either or.
Gatsby's infatuation with Daisy is fueled by his romanticized perception of her and the life he envisions with her. He becomes fixated on the idea of Daisy as a symbol of wealth, status, and beauty, rather than truly understanding her as a complex individual. This idealized version of Daisy ultimately leads to Gatsby's downfall, as he places her on a pedestal and fails to see her flaws and shortcomings. Gatsby's inability to reconcile his idealized vision of Daisy with the reality of who she is highlights the tragic nature of their relationship. His love for the idea of Daisy, rather than the actual person, contributes to his eventual demise and serves as a critique of the shallow and materialistic values of the Jazz Age society depicted in the novel.
In the book she is not so complicated at all she said the best thing for a girl to be is a fool she didn't want to make a choice she wanted what was easy she chose Tom.
@@drea7295you don’t understand the complexity of that line and it’s nuanced commentary on womanhood
I agree with most of what you said, especially about Gatsby putting her on a pedestal. While i believe his love blinded him, I truly believed he loved Daisy. I believe he lives of his love for her which was his downfall. It made him ignore the signs she gave him and in the end his love for her is what killed him. I love your opinion though.
literally an ap lit analysis of their relationship 😂
@@IceCream-ey2kgbecause most people still romanticize this book and refuse to accept the reality that Gatsby never loved Daisy.
If we ever have a roaring 20’s era again. I will MOST defiantly walk around calling people old sport. Nobody can and will stop.
2020 is coming up. With a new financial crisis tho. Sorry.
Im ready to celebrate the new year 2020 like they did in the roaring 20s.
Now's your time old sport!
Here we are in the new roaring 20s
our time has come, old sport
There has never been a perfect track for such a scene! This scene invited me to the wonderful world that is Lana Del Rey
Bylee Malox same here
Same here!!!
Same, 2013
Bylee Malox I felt shivers everywhere when this scene came on at the movie was watching at the cinema. This is extraordinary...Lana is a goddess and she deserved this scene and many more
Same for me
This song practically MADE this scene. I don't think it would have stuck in my memory as much as it did if not for this song. This song is literally what made me want to watch the movie considering I had never read the Great Gatsby before or watched any previous iterations.
same!
Nick was such a third wheel
missmary108 ooooohhhhhhhh
MrJadziaa he used Nick to get to Daisy
Hahaha! And it was that the whole time! :'D
Nick and Daisy are cousin so he help Gatsby hook up with his cousin
selerim actually I think they're second cousins once removed
My favorite part is how he tells nick he likes how the house catches the light like that, and Daisy walks in front of his mansion, the beautiful scenery, the glittering fountain, the color scheme, the fresh trees and all he looked at was her. His beautiful house and he says "she makes it so splendid, doesn't she old sport?" Always her. I wish I could be a daisy.
I think he told nick the exact same thing in the book too
I wish I could be Daisy too
Daisy’s a complete bitch. It’s hard to see that in the movie because Carrie Mulligan is really likeable (imo) but if you read the book/have read you’ll know what i’m talking about
Charlie I think quite the opposite actually. I’ve read the book and I was quite disgusted by Daisy especially the final scene which never made it to the final cut of the movie when she meets nick later. However, I think there is so much depth to her character and so many layers of emotion that it’s wrong to just call her a bitch, as it doesn’t serve justice to her character. Personally, I think she just realized it was too late for her and Gatsby to be together, she adapted to her circumstances and moved on. But as it is in art, no interpretation is totally wrong so your point is just as valid
M G yeah i’ve read the book too and i agree. i find daisy hard to dislike but i know i’m meant to as she as fitzgerald wrote her in to be disliked. she’s supposed to be a “bitch”. but i do agree there is more to daisy than just thag
The way the song plays as Gatsby throws the shirts on Daisy as she says “Jay, stop it” and laughs hysterically and the way he looks at her like nothing else matters in the world is just so breathtaking. They could have had this. They could have been together forever, but sadly tragedy struck. This movie pays amazing respect to the book. I get carried away watching this scene. It’s just so heartbreaking but it makes you fall in love with their story and their history at the same time. ☹️❤️
I love the way Daisy speaks- it's so soft and sweet. With that light airy-ness towards the end of her lines. It reminds me so much of the classic movies from the early-mid 20th century during the Golden Era of film making. It's subtle, but it adds so much to the time and era the film takes place in.
I agree ❤️
Truly a voice full of money
This scene is fucking beautiful
Im Oblivion this scene is young and beautiful FTFY
This still remains my favourite moment in the movie. The song choice is excellent to depict the temporary happiness that this romance represents.
Reminds me of when I was young and in love
He trusted Daisy with his heart......
nikeeweston and she didn't go to his funeral...... 😢😡
randomstuff *_* yep that was the final insult. Evil woman.
@@nikeeweston I mean, Gatsby was no better, lol. Objectifying her, putting her to an insane standard, only wanting her as a trophy and for her wealth, tricked her into bed with him by pretending to be rich, and trying to control her past. Not the type of guy anyone should want to be with, and same for Daisy. None of the characters in the novel were really "good."
@@Someone-ig7we Preach!!
@@Someone-ig7we "Tricking her into bed with him by pretending to be rich." That's a bit ironic, as it implies Daisy would only sleep with a rich man. That's definitely not taking a moral high ground either. Also, you act like Gatsby's American Dream journey is a bad thing. Joining the military to become one of many and hide the poverty he was born into (which he can't help obviously). I don't agree with those pieces of the argument. I also feel like I interpret the story differently than you.
I remember this whole scene gave me goosebumps * - *
Ma Eve After I finished the book and that my English teacher was kind enough to show us the movie, I nearly cried the first time I watched this scene.
Still does...
Even in the end, Gatsby thinks that Daisy called him when it was actually his friend, Nick.
At least he died happy..🥺
Yes Daisy was materialistic, but she doesn't really get emotional because of the beautiful shirts. She is sad because she chose wealth with Tom over love with Gatsby. Now she realizes she could have had both if she would have waited for Gatsby when the war was over.
Add Mnss THANK YOU! Everyone Is harping on daisy but they don't understand all the symbolism this book has
Add Mnss OMG THANK YOU. I've read the book, and everyone hates Daisy, but in my opinion it was about the battle between the want for love and the want for money, but she wanted both and felt she could never have it. In my opinion it's actually Gatsby who was the creator of all the drama, he was the one who created a whole fake cloak of lies about himself and persistently broke into their lives and had a deluded sense of reality because of the way he romanticized their past and how he believed Daisy could sort of refill his life and make it back to the way it was.
Wolf Maiden Yes, I've always found Gatsby a bit annoying. I appreciate his sincerity but there comes a time where you need to realize you can't change something. "Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."
Aceris actually, I had a girl who I was with and like no matter how much I wish I could change the past or get her back and make my life the way it used to be, no matter how much I loved her, well I realized that you can never make it the same again. And tbh who's the creepy one, the person who eventually got with the person someone else wants, or the one barging into someone else's life on account of their own inability to move along?
Add Mnss I read it as if she realized Gatsby isn't in the same social class. The men wear non fluorescent clothes. Usually always white. Gatsby is throwing shirts in all colors.
Also throughout the book green is symbolized by money and other things
Yellow in the sun and in color of the car that killed Myrtle.
So three colors symbolized were white, green, and yellow. Aka the colors of a daisy
i love this Scene the Music fits it so well... this movies just faszinate me one of the best movies i ever watched . when the gates opened and the Music starts i just get goose bumps
I love how it shows Daisy walking to the house. It is amazing
Me too
This whole movie makes me nostalgic for an era I didn't even live in
One of the most underrated movies of all time, score, cinematography, acting and set design is so perfect
YES !! i swear if it was made now, it would win so many awards !! i’d hope anyways
Leo is real Gastby, who just walked out of pages I read
No he wasn't wtf
Jack K What do you mean? Jay Gatsby was not black

Jack K The book says he had tan skin
It’s a tradition to comeback and watch this scene from time to time
It truly is
This film couldn’t have been more true to the book. It displayed the emotion so well. This was always one of my favourite scenes
"Daisy... Daisy darling, what is it?" oh fuck
Nothing , i just didn't know you are rich asf. I shoulda marry you instead
I was literally reading these words as he was saying it in the video.creepy😳
This is by far my favorite scene not only because it brings to life their love Fitzgerald described in the book but encapsulates the bitter sweetness of their forbidden love in some sense. Lana's voice truly represents the bitter sweetness of love...her voice is MESMERIZING
I've never seen such beautiful shirts
Anastasia how pathetic
+Farhan Mckinnons Um...that's what Daisy said in reply.
Farhan Mckinnons read the book bruv
I almost punched Daisy for that.
😂😂
f scott fitzgerald was truly a genius with litrature
Yeas he was. And the fact he weaved the art of satire into the romance and remorse of the book is genius too.

+Bryan Aguilar Happens to most geniuses, they doubt themselves. In opposite to the common fools who are always confident and determined ;-)
I can’t get over this scene the music the cinematography, the mood of it the emotion just a perfect scene
The best movie I have seen so far. Everything is on point.
"She looks like she could be on the cover of Vogue don't ya think?" Hits me every single time

She did it.
the amount of times i’ve rewatched this movie just to cry to this scene is just-
Carey Mulligan was an excellent choice for Daisy.
The fact people genuinely despise her is a credit, because that was how F Scott Fitzgerald wrote her.
SGM ASMR I just don't think she's a good actress lol
Jackie R she was good in that one movie
CAREY MULLIGAN IS LEGIT SO BEAUTIFUL I WILL SHOOT MYSELF IN THE FACE
Plumeria Hyacinth she’s fantastic in this movie wym
Taranticat
Don't talk about it, be about it.
I have often heard the saying, "everyone suffers"....the rich, the poor and everyone in between. I actually feel sorrow for almost all the characters. Daisy was born into privilege and Gatsby knew that. He was the one that didn't come back from the war and when Daisy got his letter, she was ready to call off the wedding to Buchanan. She was forced to marry Buchanan as calling off the wedding would have been shocking and social suicide for her and her family.
She struggled with the love she had for Gatsby and the life and respectability she built with Buchanan. The story takes place in a different era....divorce was unheard of and brought substantial shame with it. She wanted to run away with Gatsby and that was most likely in her mind the only way they could be together.
Buchanan is the one character that I had no sympathy for due to his cruelty to Daisy, Mrytle and really everyone he came in contact with.
This is one of my favorite movies and favorite songs as well. Thank you for posting it.
Ms. DK Couldn't have agreed more.
Tom is an a-hole in both the book and the movie. His smug face and that he's cheated on Daisy for a sub-standard girl like Myrtle is just beyond disgusting if you ask me.
Tom's only fault is that he thought money could buy everything he wanted, including women, which is true to some extent. Neither Daisy, nor Myrtle were ever with him because of who he is as a person, but because he was rich, which is why I accuse the women in this novel being the cause of most problems. Daisy was like a carefree child who thought there are no consequences or actions, as her husband and family were always there to clean up after her. She never learned in the end either. Gatsby was an idiot for chasing some woman from 5 years ago who was married and had kids who doesn't even care about him enough to attend his funeral. All of this was like a game to Daisy, but full-on serious for Gatsby. I pity such foolish men. Feel bad for Wilson too. He was manipulated, first by his wife, then by Tom and in the end they made him into a guilt-ridden murderer who had to kill himself.
Ms. DK exactly, he was more sad that he had to give away the apartment he had for his affair with Myrtle then Myrtles actual death.
Just seeing Gatsby’s genuine smile of joy when he’s throwing the clothes on Daisy, thinking that he got back what he once had is heartbreaking, as well as heartwarming. It’s just amazing to watch the range of emotion in this scene and the innocent joy.
this shows that love is man's greatest weakness
Usama Nazeer ...but also his greatest joy.
And greatest strength....
A human feeling all these 3 different emotions altogether....
When a human is in love.....
Usama Nazeer I strongly wish that was true
No a mans fantasy is his greatest weakness
@@Julie_jul lmao are you even a boy/man?
People who say, "She's not even that hot." That's the point, he didn't love her for her beauty. Because he could have all the women in the world with his money but he chose daisy.
Hamza Flash couldn't agree more. that's why I loved there love story so much.
it's so unfortunate and sad how it all end.
could of ended so differently :(
Boo Boo *could have. i hate people who cant do that right.
Lol wrong to all of y'all. He loved the idea of her. The wealth and "beauty" of her world that he always wanted.
Lucas Layton sorry mate, it's not an English essay :/
Hamza oh you moron no did you not read the book? She was supposed to be beautiful, him not loving her for her looks rather than her personality was never a theme in the book. This was such a poor interpretation of a wonderful novel.
Gatsby doesn’t have many friends. So when he invites Nick to come along with him and Daisy you can sense the gratitude and grace in Gatsby because it’s the first time he ever had a real friend. Someone who always has his back.
Probably one of my favorite scenes. Not only is the song beautiful, but the scene is so carefree and happy.
"Absolutely old sport! Absolutely." -Jay Gatsby
This scene is far by the MOST magical scene I've ever seen in a movie. I can't explain the feelings I feel when I see this scene. And the best part is the feeling is the exact same I felt when I first saw this scene.
I feel the same exact way. I get butterflies
Thank to Scott Fitzgerald, Leo, Lana Del Rey
Amen to that
theterminator308 And bazh, don't forget him
and Carey Mulligan
And baz ludeman
And Jay Z for the musical arrangement! In the Movie! ...yeap!.. he executive produced the music
This song was played many times in the movie. I love how they loved the song so much, they played it like 3-5 times.
And all 3 we're different, but still the same music.
This whole sequence is so perfect - it breaks my heart in a million pieces. Scatters it across the universe.
Even though Nick had pretty much the best connection in the world with one of the richest people, he never really let that get to his head. He lived in his small cottage and admired Gatsby. He was Gatsby’s only true friend. The person who was with him with Daisy in this scene, the person who was always there for Gatsby even to the end of Gatsby’s time, Nick was with him even though no one else was(besides his dad). Most people would never go to something if they knew they were going to be the only one there. That just shows how much Nick cares about Gatsby. Not for his wealth, but because of friendship. You don’t find that too often. That is something to be admired and cherished because it only rarely comes by.
This movie reminded me of titanic . The whole cast did amazing especially Leo and Toby
I know right its like this movie really happened in the paste

The way he looks at her❤️this whole scene is so beautiful and Lana Del Rey’s song was perfect for this movie😭couldn’t have chosen anyone better
That's my favorite part of the whole movie. I get a bittersweet feeling on the inside
Im crying
It’s unhealthy how many times I’ve watched this scene
this seems to prove that Gatsby wasn't in love with her but more of what she represents, " how she catches the light," "how she makes it look so splendid," more on how she looked and how she made the place look than her.
I disagree, part of loving someone is appreciating their natural beauty and how they make things more beautiful.
this is great analysis for my a level englit lit thank you sir
Hes been wanting her for such a long time. He means she completes the picture, she is the masterpiece that brings everything together. That's how in love he was with her but well she is selfish
@@emimh6060 He didn't love her. She was the unobtainable, wealthy "golden girl" that he wanted to possess and be a part of that world. Daisy would never have been able to live up to the fantasy he had created in his mind.
He was talking about his house lol
I cry every time I see this scene, it’s so ethereal and dauntingly sweet.
This scene is beautiful. To have everything but yet, still without anything until the one thing that really matters appears.
to everyone who said that their love story is beautiful, whatever - it’s not even love. gatsby was just enraptured by everything she represented to him when he was a soldier - wealth, money, fame, perfection. in his head he’s built up this version of her that in reality she will never fulfill. he’s not in love with her - he’s in love with the idea of her.
Isn't that every relationship... you don't really know your family, parents, relatives, spouses even. You love the idea of what you think they represent...
@@LSSYLondon Heavy stuff
Thats your interpretation
@@LSSYLondon Agreed. Many argue that Jay loved Daisy at one point in time, and that's the idea of her the he loved. But if we have to love a person no matter how much he/she changes, isn't that just similar to loving a different person altogether. Lol
That's the message of the book, and Daisy was just a gold digger. But this scene made it really difficult for anyone that hasn't read the book to understand that, because it was filmed and written so beautifully. In this scene, they truly do seem so in love and it makes it difficult to realize that they are not actually
Nick is the sweetest character ever put to paper.
I just finished reading the book at school and honestly I fell in love with the book, not only that but the movie as well. It’s so beautiful and I don’t think anyone understands how much the great Gatsby means to me. Best book I’ve ever read
One of my favorites 💗
this song makes me cry ..
Same here

Lana Del Rey owns this scene...
makes me cry every time i swear
Leonardo is so engrossed in this role, I love his performance
It hasn't even started playing and I am already in tears. Lana Del rey is my everything, so is Leo and so is this movie
this scene is so beautiful and magic. it seems unreal. Gatsby is such an amazing charter and Leo plays him in a perfect way, so handsome, so intense and deep. Gatsby is the man of dreams. Daisy is so lucky. the music is perfect, it seems like also they can listen to it. 1:16 all he have done, he did for her. I wish I could have a Gatsby in my life, I wish I could be Daisy, I wish I could have the hope that him has and the patience and the passion. the end is sad, but really significant.
wow so beautiful. I like what you wrote
This scene is one of the best in the movie because all the 3 actors have done a splendid job. It is also one of the most symbolic scenes in the movie because here we really see Gatsby's relationship with Daisy...
What's interesting about this is how the colors and the grandeur of everything, it seems fake somehow. And that contributes to the theme of people putting up facades to the person who they really are inside. Cool book, cool movie.
This scene makes me almost cry... i would have die happily if a man loves me like gatsby
Oh please don't. He objectified her and treated her like a trophy. He didn't care what she thought in the scene where he confronted Tom. He tried to control her past. He's an awful person to love. All of the characters were awful. Please, get yourself someone better :(
Funny how I still come back to this scene, it simply just helps you dream.
I wish there was an actual alternative version of Young and Beautiful such as the one being played at 2:08. It’s so beautiful.
