Review of The Great Gatsby (1974) by Jay N — 01 Aug 2009
Well appointed but ponderous version of classic tale. Redford and Farrow fit their parts well physically but lack chemistry, the sets are gorgeous but the film just sort of chugs along keeping its distance from the audience so when tradegy occurs its at a remove.
Sam Waterson turns in a fine performance as tha narrator.
