LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) -- THV 11 Film Critic Jonathan Nettles on Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby.

In my younger days, I was required to read a novel.

"It's the great American novel," said my 11th-grade English teacher.

I recall that at the time, I gave it my best effort. I think The Great Gatsby may have been one of the few assigning reading materials that I actually read all the way through.

If I saw a youngster of high school age in line to buy a ticket to 2013's visually stunning Baz Luhmann directed The Great Gatsby, I'd encourage him to save $10, go to the library and get the true version for free.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) -- THV 11's Mark Edwards talks with wildlife rehabilitator Rodney Paul
about what to do if you come across an injured or abandoned baby bird.

Along with wife, Paul owns and operates Raptor Rehap of Central Arkansas in El Paso. He says people have the instinct to want to help somehow if they come across an injured animal. However, Paul says that's not in the best interest of the bird at all.

In the nine years that Paul and his wife have owned Raptor Rehab, they've successfully released more than 500 birds of prey back into the wild. Many were injured and some came in as orphaned birds that had been pushed or blown out of nests.

In this week's Outdoor Report, Paul explains why it's so important to leave caring for these birds to the experts.
