Review of a film Breakfast at Tiffany's is a must-see classic of American cinema. This film was based on the novella of the same name by Truman Capote. It was directed by Blake Edwards and released by Paramount Pictures in 1961. It’s a perfect bland of love story and comedy. The story is about a party girl and gigolo who become close friends nearly from the first sight and soon realize that they’re in love. The movie begins at breakfast, with lovely Audrey Hepburn, who plays a character called Holly Golightly, still dressed in an evening gown in the early morning light, drinking coffee and eating a pastry as she browses the windows at Tiffany's. She lives in a barely furnished apartment where she hosts parties, and attends to an independent orange tabby. Once a week, she goes to the prison Sing-Sing to meet with admirer Sally Tomato, who gives her "the weather report" to tell his cronies on the outside. One morning Holly is awakened by new tenant Paul Varjak ringing the door bell. George Peppard, who plays a character called Paul Varjak, is a young writer whose first effort showed promise, now suffering from writer's block. He is rented the apartment above by his older, married mistress. Naturally, he befriends Holly - they're both young, beautiful, and in essentially the same line of work. The central struggle of the movie is whether two of them can accept happiness and possible poverty together, or continue their attempts to trade up. Still, the whole thing works, and by the final scene in the rain you’re hooked into it. Audrey Hepburn and George Peppard are acting out with great chemistry and their dialogues are quite touching. I would definitely recommend this film to anybody. Even if you don’t particularly care for love stories, it’s still worth watching for the great acting and sophisticated, elegant, and beautiful Audrey Hepburn. It definitely worth
