okay! i have an announcement!

i don’t know how many of you in the tgg fandom outside of the gatsbin know this film exists, but there was a version made in 1949, starring alan ladd (jay), macdonald carey (nick), barry sullivan (tom), betty field (daisy), and ruth hussey (jordan)

it’s certainly interesting, and not super accurate to the book (dialogue tags scott, dialogue tags, PLEASE DEAR GOD scott you’re confusing people). this movie went through a lot of screening because of the hayes code, and a lot of stuff was taken out. it was also made more of a gangster/film noir type film—alan ladd, had, to that point, made mostly film noirs, and was starting to get into westerns, so that doesn’t help with accuracy.

BUT.

i can’t find a copy of any sort of script for it online. my goal, over christmas break, is to create a script of at least the dialogue, the setting and maybe some of the mood the music gives. perhaps some important actions if there’s no dialogue ( ex. jay punching a guy, the first flashback giving historical context etc)

so! my christmas break is the 23rd to the 8th, and my hope is that i can have this out before i go back to school. i’m not sure where i’m going to put it, but it will be posted on this account, and perhaps ao3 if i can figure out how to post a script sort of thing there.
