Abstract
The Great Gatsby (2013 version), a movie directed by Baz Luhrmann, basically follows Fitzgerald's novel of the same name in terms of plot structure and has been adapted to be more conducive to audio-visual experience. This movie is like an impressionist painting. Although every second of every frame on the screen is clear and bright, the overall blurring of the aesthetic sense has long been dense, and it is commendable that this work is a more successful literary adaptation.
