But I'm a huge fan of Baz Luhrmann movies.

I don't understand how anyone could be a huge fan of this guys work. It's way too overdone.



I'll say that his need to make everything extravagant fits the Gatsby story. I know what to expect, although I have yet to see the film, as far as cinematography goes. There will be plenty of times where it looks beautiful, along with times where I will want to punch something because of Luhrmann's need to overdue things. Leo is my favorite actor, so I will see it because of him and the fact that I like the story.
