Yep that ruins that classic for me. Jeez I guess that's what you get when you drag a $1,000 bill down a Hotel lobby.

I suppose there are worse books to which it could have happened, but offhand I can't think of one.

Hell, there has yet to be a good film version of that book.

Maybe someone will ask Paris tonight at her, uh, book party if she's even read "The Great Gatsby." For her sake I hope not. That book stank on ice. Then again, I have none too high of an opinion of ol' Fitzgerald's ability to captivate a reader...

Daisy...
Am I mixing up my characters, or wasn't Daisy a super-rich heirress and socialite who knew nothing about anything and while she thought herself o, so refine, she was low-class and ignorant as a house plant?
I mean, given the shift in morality, Paris Hilton IS Daisy!

I wonder if this film attempt will be nearly as popular as her first entry into the video market. The Paris Hilton Sex Video was probably one of the most widely viewed movies in the last couple of years.

That book sucked. As did any movie relating to the book. Especially with Robert Redford.

Perfect. Worst novel ever meets worst actress ever. A match made in Hades if ever I heard one.

Fitzgerald's hitting about 7200 rpms about now. Someone should harness that energy.

I don't know. Daisy always struck me as a complete airhead. I never understood why Gatsby was so in love with her.
Paris Hilton as Daisy sounds like a perfect fit to me.

You write as if Fitzgerald was some sort of refined noblemen. He wrote trash. He'd probably be campaigning for Kerry, and writing columns for Slate or Maxim if he were alive today.

Oh, I don't know . . . any book that makes you muddle through entire chapters of crap like "Caddie smelled like trees" rates pretty damn low to me.
