Summary

It's the spring of 1922 in New York City, a decadent playground of shifting morals, glittering jazz, bootleg empires and skyrocketing stocks. Chasing the American Dream, would-be writer Nick Carraway arrives from the Midwest only to land next door to Jay Gatsby, a mysterious millionaire whose estate overflows with endless parties. As Nick's beautiful cousin Daisy and her blue-blooded husband Tom Buchanan fall into Gatsby's orbit, Nick bears witness to a tragedy of impossible love and incorruptible dreams.
