Gatsby Music

Gatsby was a movie that I found to be very musically fascinating. The juxtaposition of the vintage feel of the film was in direct contrast with the modern rap songs. The clip above is just one example I found that showed this style of music. When I first started watching the film the music bothered me because I felt it was out of place and distracted from the actual scene. However, as the the movie went on I grew to really enjoy the music and I now feel that it added a unique quality the film that really made it stand out. I also felt that the excess and grandness in the film matched the lyrics and style of the music well.
