Quotes:
Nick Carraway: [First lines][narrating]
Nick Carraway: In my younger and more vulnerable years, my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since.

Just viewed this tonight at an English Lit Society event.
This is a seamless adaptation of the book which is considered by many to be the Great American Novel. Much of the narration from the text is used, helping to create the feeling of being an outsider looking in, just as the narrator and main character himself does.
Most of the scenes are clearly taken straight from the book's pages. The actors remain in character, and the plot is not toyed with or distorted. The movie may be daunting to someone who has not read the book, but lovers of the book are very likely to enjoy it.
My only small objections were that Gatsby seemed too old and his wide half-smile was a bit creepy, but that's neither here nor there.
Two thumbs way way up! Where can I buy a copy?
