The Evil in Materialistic Possessions

When this movie began its almost as if all the characters that seemed so innocent were the ones that were anything but in the clear. My favorite character Jay because he seems like he is the most sincere character in the movie. Even though Gatsby's life is filled with money i feel as though he is one of the few who aren't entirely materialistic. Gatsby's love of Daisy drove him to become the wealthy man he had become in hope that in return Daisy would join his side. Gatsby truely could careless about money it seems, but its love that truely drives Gatsby's life. Many of the characters in this movie make it seem as if theres no other way to be happy without money, but in my opinion the whole moral of the story is that the love of money will do everything but make a person feel content. For its love to its fullest that will truely and entirely complete a persons happiness.

  1. I agree completely. I think Jay was the most sincere character in the movie he would have done anything for Daisy. However, the other characters in the movie seemed to care for nothing more than money. Very good point at the end and great post.
