I might have re-watched this movie recently and unintentionally reignited my hyperfixation.
I present to you The Great Gatsby (Except it's Gay.)
Forgive the sound quality, I'm not a natural editor.

baz luhrmann movies are so funny bc of how little the songs match what’s happening on screen. its like backseat freestyle by kendrick playing over footage of old timey white men driving a ford model t

“Rich girls don’t marry poor boys” I have to admit that was actually a pretty good foreshadow

Carey Mulligan and Leonardo DiCaprio as Daisy Buchanan and Jay Gatsby in The Great Gatsby (2013), co-written and directed by Baz Luhrmann.
It's so sad, because it's so hard to make her understand. It's so hard to make her understand. I've gotten all these things for her. I've gotten all these things for her and now she just... she just wants to run away.

watched 2013 gatsby for the first time and,,, none of the forced heterosexuality in that movie held a candle to the gayest ending i’ve ever seen. nick called when daisy didn’t!!! you could hear the panic in his voice after the gunshots!!!! he arranged. gatsby’s. funeral. he was the only one there! hE WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO TRULY CARED AND ENDED UP IN A MENTAL HOSPITAL BECAUSE HE WAS TRAUMATIZED BY GATSBY’S DEATH. NICK REALLY LOST THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE IM GONNA BE SICK

Question for the brit’sh folks: I was thinking about hogwart houses and their value systems and about how JK shows her bias towards these value systems. She holds Gryffindor values in very high regard but seems to look down on Slytherin. One of her biggest issues seems to be that of the ambition trait. Ambition is almost always portrayed as a negative quality to the point that those who aren’t even in Slytherin with this trait are treated quite poorly by the narrative (Percy you deserve better).
I’ll admit right now that I don’t truly understand the class system in the UK. (I’ve found myself asking “wait what jobs do the Malfoys and Blacks even have? Where is this money coming from” And then I have to remind myself that they’re old money aristocrats types). I’ve made attempts to get it but I’m still a bit perplexed. So as an American reader some things in the series completely went over my head and I’ve had to have them be pointed out for me to even notice them (thank you Snape meta writers!).
As an American reader it is a little strange that ambition is held in such contempt in this series. The whole thing about America is to try to do better than your parents did, to move up in life, to pull yourself up by your bootstraps and achieve that American dream! So when you start analyzing the series with that perspective it is a bit puzzling.
So I guess my questions are: Is JKR’s aversion to ambition a “her problem” or is this a general view that the British class structure encourages. Or to put it a different way, does British society look down upon upwards economic mobility? And if so what are other ways this is reflected in the series?
For a more general question: Is the idea of the American dream in contrast with traditional British values? If so, what do these culture clashes look like?
(Also I’m not asking if you personally as a British citizen have a problem with ambition but more trying to understand UK culture and society)

So I'm watching the Great Gatsby movie (the 2013 Baz Luhrman one because I love it a lot), and Leonardo DiCaprio says "sport" weird it goes back and forth between "spohwrt" "spahwt"

so i forget exactly which scene it is, but it’s one with daisy and gatsby. he’s pointing out the green light. he’s not looking at her! he’s looking at the green light! it shows how fixated he is on the illusion of her, not the actual person she is! it’s so clever, because from what i remember, she never actually noticed the green light until he pointed out. and she didn’t care about it
