In reply to Bookfool, aka Nancy. Yes. I liked This Side of Paradise as well. I'll be interested to hear what you think of the Gatsby movie. See it on the big screen! Go solo! ha.

So far, I haven’t found anyone who is willing to see the movie with me. I may just have to go solo. Loved the book but This Side of Paradise was my first Fitzgerald and I suppose it will always hold the favorite slot in my heart.

I am so glad you liked the movie. I reread the book for the Christmas movie release and then they postponed the release! ARGH!!!

My student assistant said the music is like rap music??? She said she didn’t care for the contemporary feel the music gave the film. I’m not sure how I’d feel about it. Guess I better see it myself.

I enjoyed the movie too, old sport. Just had to throw that in there for fun! I haven’t re-read the book but the movie was pretty true to what I remembered. I’m glad to see my old memory’s not all that bad.

In reply to Barbara Bartels . Yeah I think you might enjoy. Let me know what you think. It's a bit different for sure. A bit more contemporary.

I need to see the movie. It’s one of those books I read several times, but I haven’t read it recently. I think I still have a pretty strong recall of it. I think it would be fun to see this cast take it on.
