– daisy buchanan
“i was thrilled to pick up the phone an hour ago to the young Oscar-nominated british actress carey mulligan and say to her: βhello, daisy buchanan,ββ said luhrmann.
and since i have loved her in her roles in pride & prejudice & an education, i am beyond thrilled…and counting down the days until opening night!
I love Carey Mulligan – she’s gorgeous, particularly working her current Audrey Hepburn hair style.
Just discovered your blog – would love it if you stopped by mine sometime.

wow…so looking forward to this with a mix of trepidation and delight. as long as we go in with no expectations of anything we should be safe! totally agree with ms portman as jordan and i do think that ms mulligan will be a lovely daisy…but mia farrow’s (heck, redford’s too) are some big ol’ satin pumps (or wingtips) to fill!
I am over the moon about this film, and the addition of Ms Mulligan has me practically itching with excitement! I think she’ll make a wonderful daisy, and that Natalie Portman would play a terrific Jordan! As for the men, I don’t even know where to start on my dream cast!
The news about her latest role is so big right now. I think it’s super cute the way they told her she got the part.
I am thrilled the part went to Carey, she is adorable π
oh my, what news! how wonderful! i’m so flustered; i never thought there would be a film! must re-read over the holiday break!
HOW SICK ARE THOSE PHOTOS! And I can’t wait. Cannot wait.

I saw this on another post as well. Obviously a very popular choice!
emily – michelle was my top pick too {have you seen dick? it’s seriously the funniest movie ever!} but carey was a close 2nd. i am semi-afraid of watching it too…with every novel i adore, i am always going in with sky high expectations!
ooof. I love her too- An Education was one of my favorite movies- but I was hoping for Natalie or Michelle Williams as our Daisy. I L-O-V-E the novel so it will be with an eye of scrutiny that we watch the movie, I’m sure. xo
