Book summary as I vaguely remember any detail of it:

Rich guy with new money did bad things and never got caught until the day he ran over someone.

It was like being rich and driving a Tesla. The only difference was that he didn't have the car in self driving mode because there was no such thing back then.

Wasn't it someone else driving his car? Also he still wasn't caught. He was killed the very next day.

[–] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Ah yeah, I forgot that little detail. It was a stabbing or a gun? Something like that right?

[–] shasta@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

That's a good bet

[–] embed_me@programming.dev 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Yes a shooting. I saw the movie so I remember the pool scene

Bloopers. Splooshers.

[–] notanaltaccount@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

You just ruined the movie!!!! 😠

[–] notanaltaccount@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Who did he blame without the Tesla self driving mode?

[–] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Wasn't it the narrator who got blamed or the guy driving with him?

[–] notanaltaccount@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'm not sure. Something definitely happened though. I think?

[–] Doxatek@mander.xyz 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Spoilers lol but clearing it up.

Gatsby was in the car but his girlfriend was driving while emotionally distraught. It was actually Gatsbys car but Gatsbys girlfriend's husband Tom had made his mistress think it was his car to impress her and make her husband feel bad. The mistress thought the car coming was Tom coming to pick her up to run away together so she ran out in the road and was hit. The husband of the mistress went crazy and was made to think by Tom that it was Gatsby driving and having an affair with his wife and not him. So the husband walked over and shot Gatsby as he was finally using his swimming pool. Bit confusing haha
