The Great Gatsby (Classic, Love, Prohibition, Luxury, Adaptation)
  
PLOT: Love, lust and liquor kept Jay Gatsby's (Leonardo DiCaprio) legendary parties alive and the place to be seen. His lavish attempts at catching the eye of former love Daisy Buchanan (Carey Mulligan) unintentionally garnered him the attention of an intrigued neighbor, Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire). It isn't long before Nick and Gatsby's friendship grows and the light of luxury soon begins to fade. Nothing is as grand as it seems and the price to pay for a series of love triangles will be a high one. AUTHOR: F. Scott Fitzgerald
