Oh, 2013, when shall you come? Not that 2012 was a bad year for cinegoers, but 2013 looks promising with some intriguing films lined up; and The Great Gatsby is one of them.
When a film’s star cast boasts of names like Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Amitabh Bachchan (just a guest appearance though), one cannot help but set his/her expectations sky-scraping high! The film centres on Nick Carraway (Maguire), a Midwesterner now living on Long Island, who finds himself fascinated by the mysterious past and lavish lifestyle of his neighbour Jay Gatsby (DiCaprio).
In this new promo, we see Gatsby interacting with Carraway and saying ‘I will tell you God’s truth about myself! I am the son of some many wealthy people; sadly, they are all dead now.’ It is charming to see how effortlessly Leonardo gets into the skin of his character.
Gatsby possesses everything a man would love to have. He throws lavish parties, has hot chicks all around him, an exceptionally big house, the best of cars and what not. However, behind all this glory, there is a deep dark secret which rules his life.
And going by the spots and trailers, Amitabh Bachchan is definitely a part of that dirty secret. He makes his presence felt in the video as he tells Carraway ‘I understand you're looking for a business gonnegtion.’
This latest trailer of The Great Gatsby features too much drama, punches, love-making scenes, car accidents, dancing ladies, and to say the least, some exceptional lavishness.
