The Great Gatsby is by far one of the greatest novels of all time, and the 2013 film adaptation is absolutely amazing.

I have loved The Great Gatsby since I read the first page in high school. One of the most incredible authors of the 20th century, F. Scott Fitzgerland, created a masterpiece when he wrote The Great Gatsby.

The story, the characters, the way the film portrayed the words in the novel, every little aspect of it is brilliant. I personally enjoy love stories, but this has something more than just a love story. It has more personality than the basic love story.

The story is set in my favorite decade from the 20th century, the Roaring Twenties. The decade of flapper dresses and extravagant parties. The vibe of the twenties was fun, fabulous, and carefree. The movie portrays the novel very well especially the characters as they all have a charm to them. The charisma and attraction of the film is outstanding and that's what makes it one of my favorite movies!

I have a list of some of my favorite quotes from The Great Gatsby! Here they are:

“I hope she'll be a fool -- that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool.”

“And I like large parties. They’re so intimate. At small parties there isn’t any privacy.”

“If personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures, then there was something gorgeous about him.”

“I wasn't actually in love, but I felt a sort of tender curiosity.”

“There are only the pursued, the pursuing, the busy and the tired.”

“Reserving judgements is a matter of infinite hope.”

“No amount of fire or freshness can challenge what a man will store up in his ghostly heart.”

“One emotion after another crept into her face like objects into a slowly developing picture.”

If you haven't watched and/or read The Great Gatsby, you must do so soon! It's too good to miss out on!
