Every episode of VH1s old “Behind the Music” tells basically the same story. I like Gatsby but I don’t see it as necessary reading for anybody.

It’s not the subject it’s what you do with it. Besides Gatsby is about a lot more than the ‘rise and fall’ narrative. What fiction is ‘necessary reading’ these days?

Every episode of VH1s old “Behind the Music” tells basically the same story.............In the same way, only the names were changed.
