J. Gatsby
I love these nights in summer, where the heat is dying from the day. And the cool is like a welcoming embrace. Where a smile cant help but cross your lips when the breeze cools your cheeks. Driving home I was flipping through the radio and some CDs trying to find a song that matched this feeling that this movie gave me. No luck. I rushed home to not lose this feeling.
It gave me a feeling like you get after a first date, out of breathe, jitters your nerves dancing on your skin. The idea that love can make anything happen is so, forgotten. That love can make a person go beyond themselves and create something beautiful. And selfless acts do not exist in our world. People have a motive for anything.
Never mind the perfect framing. Perfect costumes. Baz Luhrmans lighting I cant get enough of. It sets the mood before a person even says a word. Carrie Mulligans eyes were so filled with a look of lost love. And then filled with an endless hope as well in a matter of seconds switching from these emotions. Oh dicaprio...sexy man. A warmth in his smile that no one can imitate. A shine in his eyes that resemble a shooting star.
Another reason it reminded me of a first love is how ridiculous you act when you find your first love. You cant speak right or walk right. You dont know what to do before seeing them. Or you will run out in the rain just to have a moment to prepare yourself before you see them. (direct reference to gatsby) Or how you want to just whisper and giggle like a kid in grade school again. As your words are so precious that they are only meant for the one you love, no one else is privy to hear them. And how you keep your faces so close together that you can feel their breathe on your face. If you got that close to anyone else they might squeal like a little girl. But when your in love you need to be as close as possible to that person and dont care who sees.
People dont care enough about love anymore. And they are not impressed by it anymore. Love is such a tender delicate thing. People should really cherish and focus on it more. Greed, lust and sex are so overrated. If people would invest time in emotions and enriching their lives with love, the world would be a better place.
Gatsby recreated himself for the one he loved. And built and entire empire for one woman. Now is love not impressive? Not the very air we breathe...the very blood to our hearts?
(sorry watching too much true blood)
Anyways Im going to lights some candles, wrap myself in a blanket, and keep this feeling alive inside me for as long as possible.
“Reserving judgements is a matter of infinite hope.”
In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars.”
"They’re a rotten crowd’, I shouted across the lawn. ‘You’re worth the whole damn bunch put together.”
Its nice to have that dreamy feeling again. <3
P.S. This movie gave me a feeling of such...peace, serenity. Knowing that love can change lives. <3
