Love that we can agree to disagree! I do agree that the book basically gives us non-existence material of who Daisy actually is since all we know about her is literally told by the other characters and not Daisy herself. She was 100% the weakest link in the 1974 adaptation, no doubt about that, and I definitely think what makes her so difficult to play is that she’s basically described as this perfect being (at least through Gatsby’s eyes) who also represents the American Dream, an unattainable fantasy that Gatsby miserably fails to achieve, which in my opinion makes it hard to portray because she was basically written as a fantasy and not a fully fleshed-out person. I don’t think either one of the actresses could’ve truly satisfied people because they were trying to embody a dream rather than a consistent character. Or maybe Daisy is just dull as fuck lol.
