In The Great Gatsby novel, flowers do get delivered to Nick's house by Gatsby

Not that I liked the film much but, I have to disagree... 05:55 the movie doesn't make him look "cool" at all. I thought Leonardo made it very clear through his acting that the whole thing was just a show and a facade, I never had a doubt about how desperate and vacant the character was on the inside. I think the movie was very clear and honest about that.

Hmmm I wonder where comics take place on this spectrum considering it can capture both novel aspects and movie aspects?

I don't understand why The Great Gatsby movie adaptation was hated so much? I know that nothing could have conveyed emotion and described scenes or characters as well as Fitzgerald did, but personally, I thought the movie really captured the essence of Gatsby and how, even though he is some type of hero to Nick, he is pathetic and hollow.
And of course, Leo's acting was just amazing.

I'm not sure I agree that they portrayed Gatsby wrong in the movie. Yes, they didn't underscore his weak side throughout, but they let it unfold more subtly. To me that conveyed exactly what the story wanted to tell, though in a slightly different manner. To me the movie was very thought provoking and moving and hit its mark perfectly.
I guess the movie wanted to first portray Gatsby like others saw him and then later cracked that image. You know, like to actually fool the viewer to make him personally attached to the notion, that things aren't always what they seem; that I got fooled now, with what else have I been fooled with?

Every video you make teaches me more and more things about how to analyze really what makes a scene and a movie good, hence the name "Now you see it" I assume. Great work keep it up.

Dude im now addicted to your channel, its really good. I'm not really into movies or movie makeing but the way you describe stuff is just so good I can't stop watching.

Nice video. I agree that it's not realistic to expect a movie to be the same as the novel. Though there are good reasons for disliking the movie adaptation. For instance: Harry Potter. I don't mind if the movie is different, but what I do mind is if the movie doesn't do the characters justice.
Harry in the books is more intelligent than in the movies, is more of a natural leader, shows more confidence and takes more action. In the movies, I suspect they wanted to really exaggerate the dynamic of the trio: Harry is the hero, Ron is the comedic sidekick and Hermione the smart one. As a result, many intelligent ideas that Harry came up with went to Hermione and much of Ron's more serious side and Harry's humor were ignored. Many of the characters like Harry and Dumbledore for instance are completely out of character and are simply less than they are in the books. Less intelligent, less complex, in Dumbledore's case less kind and wise. That bothers me.

I'll suggest not merely "slowing down', but leaving us room to feel as if we noticed your point by ourselves. You can see how those are EveryFrameaPainting's most successful moments, that go like this: 1—Tony says what we're supposed to look for in whatever he'll show, 2—He goes silent and lets the clip roll without his narration, 3-We arrive at the (same) conclusion (he said we would) and say "Wow, I noticed that".
Don't worry at all about "copying" if you choose to follow the same formula: that'd be impossible. Your conclusions, your points are what will always be unique, regardless of the way they're communicated.

I'd argue novels show as well. It's not because they use words on the page that they are more telling than showing. Your example with Gatsby and the trembling hand in the novel was very much showing. The narrator didn't say "Gatsby was so shook jfc" but "I could see his hand trembling from a distance". That's showing isn't it?
I love your videos and I found the parallels you showed in this one between movies and novels really interesting. I don't think movies vs novels are show vs tell tho. The advice "show don't tell" is as valid for novels as for movies.

Actually, the great gatsby book mentions the lawn being redone and gatsby bringing a "greenhouse" with him (basically, lots of flowers). But you are right, and this is nothing more than a passing line.
