"The Great Gatsby": Impossible Love And Incorruptible Dreams

Sneak Peek new images from director Baz Luhrmann's upcoming feature "The Great Gatsby", adapting the classic novel of the same name by author F. Scott Fitzgerald : "...would-be writer 'Nick Carraway' (Tobey Maguire) leaves the Midwest and comes to New York City in the spring of 1922, an era of loosening morals, glittering jazz and bootleg kings. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick lands next door to a mysterious, party-giving millionaire, 'Jay Gatsby' (Leonardo DiCaprio), and across the bay from his cousin, 'Daisy' (Carey Mulligan), and her philandering, blue-blooded husband, 'Tom Buchanan' (Joel Edgerton). "Nick is drawn into the captivating world of the super rich, their illusions, loves and deceits. "As Nick bears witness, within and without the world he inhabits, he pens a tale of impossible love, incorruptible dreams and high-octane tragedy, holding a mirror up to our own modern times and struggles..." "The Great Gatsby" was first published April 10, 1925, set on Long Island's North Shore and in New York City during the summer of 1922.
