The trouble with The Great Gatsby

The book was short. Like 180 pages. The movie ought to be about 65 minutes long. Edgar Ulmer should have directed it for PRC. But, of course, they wanted the movie big.

I'm in the middle of watching the old Robert Redford/Mia Farrow/Bruce Dern version. It's not bad. Mia Farrow named her adopted daughter Daisy after her character, which is weird.
