In preparation for our reading of The Great Gatsby, I'd like to show my students a movie to help familiarize them with the basic themes in the book.

What I need are suggestions for movies in which a guy is rejected by a girl because he isn't rich enough/successful enough/good looking enough, etc.  The guy then "makes good" and comes back to win her over with his new wealth and good looks. 

Even if he's not successful (because, if you've read The Great Gatsby, he wasn't so successful either), it will still work.

Got any ideas???
