The Great Gatsby (1974) **

All the principal actors in this flick should have sued the director. They look awful! Shot in tight closeup with sweaty, oily faces no matter what the conditions are supposed to be. And how in the world did Mia Farrow get to be the object of Gatsby's obsession? The whole movie is not cast very well. Still it moves along briskly and seems to be a fair depiction of the '20's.
