Wasn't The Great Gatsby beautiful? I mean, wasn't it really, really beautiful? The production, the costumes, the make up, the jewellery. Rewatching it now, a few months after I first saw it on the big screen, I am struck by how truly spectacular it really is. It's such a perfect metaphor for the story's central message. Beauty is promise. But it is also ephemeral. It's growing up, it's getting old, it's the discarded party favours and crushed flowers that Gatsby treads on after the party... I really liked this film. And thanks to the lovely people at Village Roadshow I have 5 copies of the DVD to give away to readers of Capture the Castle! To enter, please leave a comment on this post with a link to your favourite image from The Great Gatsby. I shared a few of my own to get you started - Daisy and Jordan on that pristine, perfect lounge, Daisy surrounded by flowers at the afternoon tea, Daisy covered in rumpled silk shirts. Daisy, daisy, daisy. I really couldn't take my eyes off Carey in this movie. So, to win a copy, just leave a comment with a link to your favourite image and an email address so I can get in touch with you if you win, and I'll pick 5 winners in exactly a week's time on Thursday, October 3. It's that easy! Unfortunately this giveaway is only open to Australian residents. I can't wait to see your favourite pictures!
