Summary: `Our Huckleberry friend...'
Review: This is definitely AUDREY HEPBURN's best film of her career.Never has she been more innocent, loving, romantic, extrovetred, crazy and phony in her whole life.A must for every viewer

Summary: Brilliant performances from Peppard and Hepburn!
Review: I love Audrey Hepburn, and I love this movie. She's so charming, she's able to make viewers emphatise and love her character, Holly although Holly was a pretty messed-up person. George Peppard was very handsome and gentlemanly. The storyline is original, and the soundtrack really good. Recommended watch.

Summary: Disturbed by "Tiffany's"
Review: .

"Is she or isn't she?" asks Berman.

"Is she or isn't she what?" replies Varjac.

"A phony!" says Berman cheerfully.

Well, the answer in Breakfast at Tiffany's is that Hepburn's Holly Golightly is a "real phony," which somehow is supposed to make her pipe dreams and complete denial of reality endearing.

A "real phony"? I found nothing charming about Golightly's ditziness, drinking or other balms for her pain. Here is a woman so unhappy with herself that she hires herself out nightly and chases rich men in a desperate pursuit of happiness. The superficiality of her life has indeed "caged" her. What is so real (or meaningful) about that?

Breakfast at Tiffany's has been billed in some quarters as a "romantic comedy." Me - I laughed exactly twice - both in response to supporting characters. I found the movie disturbing, despite (or maybe because of) obvious comedic tricks and a veneer of lightness. Laughter comes when you're relaxed. Golightly and her out-of-control life made me nervous from the get-go.

A final rumination: Is the ultimate romantic fantasy to be involved with someone who loves herself and others so little she even refuses to name her pet cat? Are we to believe that old habits really die so conveniently in the face of romantic love?

I really, truly wanted to like this movie even half as much as its fans do. Alas, for me, Breakfast at Tiffany's turned out to be a phony. And a real one at that.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is the best movie ever made
Review: That's all there is to say, this is the best movie ever made

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Why didn't this film win an Oscar?
Review: I would not encourage one to watch the movie as a replacement for the book, for it is markedly different. In fact, Patricia Neal's character does not exist in the book. Capote's description of Holly Golightly does not make one immediately think of Hepburn either. However, anything that Audrey Hepburn made (with the exception of Two for the Road) simply can not be bad. The story is captivating. Hepburn probably plays her most famous character. Mickey Rooney is hysterical as the landlord living upstairs. Breakfast at Tiffany's has all the elements of a best picture winner; why didn't it win? Hollywood likes musicals I suppose (West Side Story won that year).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Oh my I have never seen a better movie!!
Review: I just have one word for you all "AWESOME!"
