MOVIE: THE GREAT GATSBY

Yet another 20th Century great American novel is being adapted to the big screen this month.  F. Scott Fitzgerald's tale of the roaring twenties.  Directed by Baz Luhrmann of Strictly Ballroom, William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet and Moulin Rouge! fame.  So, expect it to look cool but have a out of character sound track.
