Good movie with an Oscar winning song.

Audrey actually played the guitar and sang it live for the shoot.

C'mon...I'm a guy and I insist that I have the right to comment. My comment is: any guy who watches the first 10 minutes of Tiffany's and doesn't fall madly in love with "Holly" isn't a real man!

Also,I read that the scene of the cab driving up 5th Avenue at the very start wasn't staged.IOW...they didn't shut down traffic or anything like that. They just happened to find a few minutes of no traffic at that particular time.

I've visited the apartment building that "Holly" entered just after the cab scene.It's on East 71st Street and it looks exactly like it did in 1961!

Good chance to see Jed Clampett playing Jed Clampett before he was Jed Clampett.

In the book Holly is a self-centered prostitute. The movie changed the grittiness of novelette, which in any case was not very well written.

My wife is crazy about Audrey, when she went to her prom she dressed just like her in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. She dressed up for a formal event the same way recently including the long gloves and I must say she did look stunning. “Charade” is her favorite movie, a great comedy with Cary Grant 1963.

I’m a guy and had never watched it till my beloved insisted we watch it many years ago, many. I loved it then and now. Greatest chick flick ever.

Audrey Hepburn was a classy, beautiful woman, especially when compared to Hollywood women today. “How to Steal a Million Dollars” is a good one also.

A fine movie, from the era when movies had actual screenplays and real actors.

I don’t think the Mickey Rooney/Mr. Yunioshi part would survive the woke mob these days, but Rooney was still great in that role.
