The Great Gatsby: Cast
The Great Gatsby is a complex story with some complex characters, which made it very enjoyable to read for me. The newest movie was amazing, because of the talented cast it had. Even though it is a written story, the actors majorly impacts the mood and tone of the movie. So the cast must be close to perfect to properly reflect the story.

Myrtle is a very important character just for being there, so she
