...than Robert Redford. All of the special effects and tons of money spent on the New Great Gatsby do not even come close to Mr. Redford's illustrious screen presence and breath taking, heart-stopping and charm! The new Great Gatsby was entertaining, and the sound track was great. I wouldn't have picked Tobey McGuire as Nick, because he come off as the super hero he played in his other movies. Also, Tobey's character seemed out of place, and having him write from an institution seemed creepy and took away from the glamor and plot of the movie, The costumes were truly gorgeous and stunning. Having said that, I have watched the Robert Redford/Mia Farrow Great Gatsby many times, and it is a classic that transcends time. Robert Redford is a legend, and no one can fill his shoes or light up the screen with his great talent and charisma.
