“i like large parties. they’re so intimate. at small parties there isn’t any privacy.” – jordan baker

i got the chance to go to an advanced screening this week of ‘the great gatsby’ and it was as amazing as i hoped it would be. with baz luhrmann directing you know you are in for a visual treat. some scenes were so lovely they took my breath away, and that was before gatsby even entered the scene
. as if all the beautiful sets, costumes and people weren’t enough – this movie, set in the roaring twenties, is accompanied by a soundtrack including jay-z…which was oddly perfect. i loved it – every second. i want to see it again and again.
