The Movie, The Lines

"The Great Gatsby", by director of "Moulin Rouge" and "Romeo + Juliet", premiered in the U.S. last Friday. If any of my dear readers have not yet seen this masterpiece, I highly recommend it. About one third of the lines are actually taken directly from Fitzgerald's book. From, "It's certainly very nice to see you again" to Gatsby's refrain, "Old sport" to the very last line:
AND SO WE BEAT ON, BOATS AGAINST THE CURRENT, BEAT BACK CEASELESSLY INTO THE PAST.
