THE GREAT GATSBY
June 13, 2014  | By David Bianculli

Cinemax, 9:35 p.m. ET

 

Baz Luhrmann’s 2013 version of the F. Scott Fitzgerald classic is flashy (big surprise there, from the director of Moulin Rouge) and anachronistic (ditto), but a few scenes are calibrated just right. And regardless, Leonardo DiCaprio projects the proper mystery as the title role – especially when he empties his soul, and his closet, during one visually stunning scene. Carey Mulligan co-stars.
