Fingers Crossed For Gatsby

From Facebook Friend Beth Bollinger: "First line of 'Gatsby' review: 'Oh look, a disco ball exploded all over the Jazz Age!' actually, I hope it's good -- I heard a critic complained that Leo DiCaprio kept losing his accent -- that is from the book!"

Question: Have you read Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby"? And/or are you planning to see it on the big screen? Can DiCaprio out-Gatsby Robert Redford?
