Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaShortly before releasing The Great Gatsby (1974) in cinemas, Paramount Pictures suppressed the distribution of nitrate prints for The Great Gatsby (1926) and The Great Gatsby (1949) to deter theaters from playing those earlier versions instead of their upcoming 1974 version. This decision led to prints for both films being lost. Decades later, in 2012, a print of the 1949 version was rediscovered. The 1926 version is still lost.
- GoofsFor the mid-1920s scene of car-loads of youngsters driving hot-rods while drinking hooch, the women are attired in mid-1930s fashions.

Featured review
Good Stuff
This is a pretty good movie that seems to be lost. It contains possible Alan Ladd's fine performance, and is far better than the vapid 1974 remake with Redford.
