okay. okay okay okay. this is how you do a slightly fucked gatsby adaption, that was actually based on the book and has somewhat of a reason for not being accurate (fuck the hayes code but it did happen):

i present the 1949 movie The Great Gatsby which is a) shorter than broadway by an hour b) has the best casting of jay gatsby and c) did i mention the catholic guilt? or the pretty gatsby actor, alan ladd?

guys. please. it’s short, there’s a pretty man playing jay and about the catholic guiltiest man playing nick. it’s such an interesting take on gatsby.

O.J. Simpson may have made my career

I woke up to the news about O.J. Simpson dying and can’t believe I never wrote about him here. He may have made my career.  That slow-speed chase on a Friday night, when I had to work early the next morning for the news at WSVN starting at 6 a.m. I had to go out that night, which I never did before an early day of work.  It was my friend Seth’s bachelor party before his wedding to Ally.  We…

first off, thanks @more-than-tender-curiosity for getting this clip!

second off. second off… hoo boy. TWO INSTANCES OF JAY.

alan also sounds like he’s bouta cry which. yea. hugging him. he deserves hugs.

the natsby vibes in this? god. what did we do to deserve this—“why don’t you forget about her?”

the flinch. i am going to talk about the flinch. alan Hated gunshots. you can see this in the start of 1949, and also in a few other movies—Shane being a great example, when Shane shows off his gun to Joey. but why would he flinch here? there’s no gun—it’s just macdonald carey’s hand. is it a character thing or his acting? i don’t know, to be honest, and i desperately want to. he’d been punched in several other films by this point—The Blue Dahlia and The Glass Key, certainly, come to mind. but it’s just carey’s hand. i would say that the flinch—and the reasoning behind it—is probably up for personal interpretation.

and then. “LET/LEAVE ME ALONE.” i can’t very well tell if it’s let or leave me alone, and both would fit just fine. but his voice—his voice. i can’t remember exactly which other movies alan raised his voice in, perhaps The Carpetbaggers? but anyhow, it’s the same in 1949 as it is in whatever other movie he raised his voice for. it’s not bad, honestly.

and also the music at the end. movie composers in the 40s and 50s… i desperately think there should be more recognition of 40s & 50s movie composers.
