I had forgotten the name he was called in “The Great Gatsby” although I knew he was based on a real guy.
I will never forget his cuff links.

Shortly after the first two Godfather films. Francis Coppola wrote a screen adaptation of The Great Gatsby which was eventually made with Robert Redford into a very dull film.

The shady character with the human molar cuff links was dubbed Meyer Wolfsheim by F.S. Fitzgerald. And Wolfsheim didn't even attend Jay Gatsby's funeral.
