Gatsby

Upon first impression Daisy and Tom are a rich couple just enjoying life. They go to parties as a careless, free couple. I think Jay Gatsby was an optimist. He hoped for so long that he could love Daisy. He held parties hoping she would arrive, cut out newspaper clippings trying to find where she is, and bought her clothes from London (the most beautiful things she's ever seen, so I hear). Daisy is a likable character until later in the movie, she didn't even go to Gatsby's funeral. She and Tom acted as if nothing happened at all. It's her fault that he died (and the one guy Mrytle was with - I hate him).

  1. Well I missed the most important part of the movie, but from what I can tell all of the caracters in the movie are a little messed up. How can you love some one and not even come to their funeral?
