WAS THE GREAT GATSBY DE-GAYED?

And wh that ado has e a rurgence of tert Nick Carraway’s unclear sexual orientatn — somethg you probably missed as a high school sophomore, but is obv wh even a ltle attentn as an adult rear.

Earlier the year, an article at Salon, Greg Olear poted out that naggg passage that suggts Nick’s homosexualy, ntled between those ellips and g directly off of a blatant penis joke.

And today The Atlantic, Noah Berlatsky argu that Baz Luhrman’s new film adaptatn suffers om not beg gay enough, and thereby unrmg Nick’s character and elimatg his nnectn to Gatsby based on “their shared need for ceptn.

NICK CARRAWAY IS GAY AND LOVE WH GATSBY

Durg Prohibn, gay nightlife and culture reached new heights—at least temporarily. * gatsby gay *

”On the other hand, Olear argu that the reason Nick’s homosexualy is important is bee reveals him as an unreliable narrator. ’ And that’s why matters that Nick is gay and love wh Gatsby: bee Tom’s asssment is spot-on, but Nick will never adm . But what do the slippery prentatn of Nick’s sexual preferenc reveal about Fzgerald’s attus towards homosexualy?

Certaly they mt have been plex — Fzgerald was famoly sensive about his masculy, and Zelda supposedly once claimed that her hband was a “fairy” who was havg an affair wh Hemgway (there’s no proof of that, though there is that scene A Moveable Feast where Hemgway tak a look at Fzgerald’s, let’s say, manly equipment, and judg to be aquate) one might expect a renunciatn, or a rtoonish portrayal (surely Fz had enough opportuny wh Gatsby’s ragers to throw a few stereotypil gay party boys), but neher of the exist this novel. Jordan Baker, who n be read as at least possibly homosexual herself (a female athlete, particularly unual at the time; all those remarks about gog on trips wh other girls) ’s Nick who is both the removed wns and the ambivalent center of the book, and who is ultimately absolved by his limaly. Stt Fzgerald: Homosexualy and the Genis of Tenr Is the Night, “In [Miss Tbe and her iends] the homosexual is not jt a symbol of moral and sexual chaos, but a projectn of votnal secury.

TMAN CAPOTE WAS THE FIRST WRER BROUGHT ON FOR THE 1974 ADAPTATN OF “THE GREAT GATSBY,” ONE OF MANY TALENTS TO ENTER AND THEN LEAVE THE FILM DURG PREPRODUCTN. A WHOLE BUNCH OF NAM WERE TOSSED AROUND TO PLAY THE LEADS, OM CANDICE BERGEN TO WARREN BEATTY. ALI MACGRAW, THEN WIFE OF ATTACHED DIRECTOR ROBERT EVANS, WAS ORIGALLY SLATED TO PLAY DAISY UNTIL SHE LEFT EVANS FOR STEVE MCQUEEN. CAPOTE’S EX, HOWEVER, ME FOR REASONS OF VISN. HE WROTE A WHOLE SCRIPT, SENT TO THE STUD, AND WAS PROMPTLY REJECTED. RATHER THAN HAVE HIM REWRE , THE NTROVERSIAL NOVELIST WAS REPLACED BY FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA (WHO SISTED THAT HIS OWN SCRIPT DIDN’T MAKE OUT ALIVE EHER).{BOX-SIZG:BORR-BOX;PADDG:24PX 0;} A{LOR:#F3F3F3;-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;} A:HOVER, A:FOC{-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:NONE;TEXT-RATN:NONE;} B, STRONG{FONT-WEIGHT:700;}SO WHAT WAS WRONG WH CAPOTE’S WORK? THIS IS WHERE THGS GET A B VAGUE. THE OFT-CED “CREATIVE DIFFERENC” OF HOLLYWOOD N MEAN ANY NUMBER OF THGS. HIS DRAFT ISN’T AVAILABLE TO READ, THOUGH SOMEONE BOUGHT A PY FOR $17,925 BACK 2007 AT A BONHAMS CTN. THE MOR (AND GIVEN THE NATURE OF THE THGS, A LIKELY REALY), IS THAT THE DRAFT WAS TOO GAY. CAPOTE HAD NOT ONLY PLACED NICK CARRAWAY EXPLICLY LOVE WH GATSBY, BUT HE’D ALSO TURNED GOLFER JORDAN BAKER TO A LBIAN.

THIS IS NOT TO SAY THAT DIENC ARE OPPOSED TO GAY CHARACTERS, WE’VE MA PLENTY OF PROGRS ON THAT POT. YET THERE’S AN ATTACHMENT TO WHAT ARE PERCEIVED AS THE FUNDAMENTALS OF CHARACTER WHICH N MAKE A LOT OF PEOPLE UNFORTABLE. IT’S A PROBLEM THAT GO BEYOND THE BOUNDARI OF ANY ONE WORK OR INTY – THE MOST RECENT NTROVERSY WH THE IC BOOK WORLD IS THE STG OF A BLACK ACTOR TO PLAY THE HUMAN TORCH THE FANTASTIC FOUR REBOOT. AUDIENC TAKE BASIC ELEMENTS OF A CHARACTER AS SACROSANCT, AND WHEN AN ADAPTATN TKERS WH THE THGS OFTEN TRIGGERS SOME PRETTY UGLY PREJUDICE. IT N EVEN HAPPEN WHEN TURNS OUT TO BE THE CREATOR’S TENTN.

IT N BE LEFT VAGUE ON PURPOSE, AND MUCH N BE READ TO THGS THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE SUGGTED. SALON’S GREG OLEAR, FOR EXAMPLE, IS ABSOLUTELY NVCED THAT NICK IS GAY. HIS ARGUMENT DON’T E OM AN ACROBATIC READG OF A SGLE CRYPTIC PASSAGE, EHER.

Th Fzgerald’s notor sensivy about his masculy, as well as the acute homosexual doubts attted to him by observers such as Morley Callaghan, may well rive not jt om the fact that he was so often the self-nfsed ‘woman’ of his marriage, but om the Achill’ heel of his secure masculy as related to matters of craft: Fzgerald the years appears to have spected that he himself was the te homosexual his choice of votn. Homosexualy therefore f the circle of his creative difficulti that he is homosexual both his moral and artistic mment and his pronens to moral llapse: homosexualy n nvey to him both his own much greater emasculatn (the attenuatns of art) and his own paci for self-abandonment (the perils of self-dulgence). ”In the same article, Colls c a letter Fzgerald wrote to Richard Knight 1932, which giv some sight to his feelgs on homosexualy: “I’m sorry I ed the word fairy and that you found offensive, ” he wr.

” While this isn’t five evince as to his feelgs on homosexualy, Fzgerald claims a semi-nsc e of of the word “fairy” as an sult, blurted out while half asleep, and follows wh scere apologi — perhaps an ditn of a nflicted md.

Stt Fzgerald's The Great Gatsby was queer, while the morn film versn of him is cidly straight, says Noah Berlatsky The Carraway is the voice and central character of Fzgerald's Gatsby, and for s, punds and scholars asserted he was gay or bisexual, and likely love wh the wealthy and troubled Jay Gatsby. My other premise is ls obv, but no more difficult to argue: Nick is a) gay and b) love wh Gatsby. So far, Nick’s is exactly the profile of a (closeted) gay young man a proment Middle Wtern fay 1922.

Her face was sad and lovely wh bright thgs , bright ey and a bright passnate mouth, but there was an excement her voice that men who had red for her found difficult to fet: a sgg pulsn, a whispered “Listen, ” a promise that she had done gay, excg thgs jt a while sce and that there were gay, excg thgs hoverg the next hour.

The mor (and given the nature of the thgs, a likely realy), is that the draft was too gay. This is not to say that dienc are opposed to gay characters, we’ve ma plenty of progrs on that pot. Salon’s Greg Olear, for example, is absolutely nvced that Nick is gay.

THE GREAT GATSBY MOVIE NEED TO BE MORE GAY

The readg of Nick as gay opens up his portrayal of Gatsby, and mirrors Gatsby’s own love of Daisy.

Obvly I n’t cricize him for not makg Nick explicly gay, nor would I. And spe of s narrative ntent, Luhrmann’s somewhat epic flamboyance has always seemed a ltle b gay. Gore Vidal knew that “Ben-Hur” was gay, even if Charlton Hton hadn’t the foggit ia.
