Large Turnout for F. Scott Fitzgerald Film

There was a capacity crowd at the Fairfield Theatre Company tonight for a screening of an almost complete documentary by Westport filmmakers Robert Steven Williams (l) and Richard “Deej” Webb about F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife Zelda’s 1920 stay in Westport. The film, “Boats Against the Current,” bolsters the belief that the Westport house the couple rented at 244 Compo Road South inspired the author’s iconic novel, “The Great Gatsby.” The filmmakers want the house to gain landmark status so it cannot be torn down.
