“Better than Gatsby.”   Chatter rolls with Claude, Torie, and Jamie as David recovers from NBA finals.  They break down DOD events, and Rocco’s shot contest beats all. Best selling author and screenwriter Kyra Davis Lurie zooms in the share “The Great Mann.” Describing it as a reimagining of “The Great Gatsby,” as many do, doesn’t do justice to this deeply researched look at class and wealth and Black identity in postwar Los Angeles. It’s Lurie’s first turn at historical fiction; hopefully not her last.
