The Great Gatsby

.

Today's Manly Daily had a front page article about Manly's St. Patrick's being 

'converted' into the Gatsby manor for next week's filming of new The Great 

Gatsby movie outdoor scenes:

"MANLY will get a taste of Leo-mania when Baz Luhrmann’s production of The Great Gatsby rolls into town next week. Stars from the highly anticipated film including Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Joel Edgerton are expected to shoot scenes at St Patrick’s Seminary, transformed into Jay Gatsby’s sprawling Long Island mansion. The exterior of the seminary will be used for scenes depicting the elaborate parties hosted by the mysterious Gatsby, played by DiCaprio. During an exclusive visit to the set this week, the Manly Daily saw workmen covering the walls of the Gothic-style building with ivy. Gardeners were busy creating garden beds of lavender plants and piles of white stones were ready to be laid around a newly created pool."
