According to F. Scott Fitzgerald's handwritten ledger chronicling his film payments from 1919 to 1938, the author earned $16,666 for the film version of The Great Gatsby. "Math wizards can computate what these numbers mean in today's dollars. But, hey, isn't that price for a treatment what MGM is still paying?" Deadline.com wrote regarding the documents, which were released as the May 10 opening of Baz Luhrmann's new adaptation of the classic novel approaches. Also Warner Bros. has unveiled "a plethora of images" to further illustrate that the film "is a literal feast for the eyes, and it's detailed no better than in these still images. The opulence, the bright colors, and the wealth literally dripping from the ceiling is all highlighted, and set against the flawless cast that includes Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Carey Mulligan," Indiewire wrote.
