The Great Gatsby (1974)
1974
The Plaza Hotel is the setting for a tense confrontation in the 1974 film "The Great Gatsby." Jay Gatsby, played by Robert Redford, confronts Tom Buchanan, played by Bruce Dern, about his love for Daisy, Tom's wife. The hotel's opulent Oak Room mirrors the decadence and excess of the Roaring Twenties depicted in the film. As you stand in the grandeur of The Plaza, you can almost feel the tension of the confrontation and the tragic passion of Gatsby's unrequited love.
