Breakfast At Tiffany's

Breakfast At Tiffany's
Director: Blake Edwards
1961

Audrey Hepburn stars in this wonderful movie from 1961.  I just watched it. Stayed up late on a school night to enjoy this heart warming classic. Oh my goodness, I never expected to love and enjoy it as much as I did.

Here's one of my favorite parts, Holly Golightly is singing on her windowsill. To the huckleberry friend.

What is it that just makes me want to have an excuse to dress like Audrey Hepburn in this movie all the time? haha. Who would've thought such a funny movie could be so heart warming? Breakfast at Tiffany's, I never thought that it would literally have to do with breakfast at Tiffany's. Is that just ridiculous? I don't know haha but it made me so glad that she really did have breakfast at Tiffany's. 

"Well, when I get it the only thing that does any good is to jump in a cab and go to Tiffany's. Calms me down right away. The quietness and the proud look of it; nothing very bad could happen to you there. If I could find a real-life place that'd make me feel like Tiffany's, then - then I'd buy some furniture and give the cat a name" ~Holly Golightly

Holly Golightly: I'll tell you one thing, Fred, darling... I'd marry you for your money in a minute. Would you marry me for my money?
Paul Varjak: In a minute.
Holly Golightly: I guess it's pretty lucky neither of us is rich, huh?
Paul Varjak: Yeah.

 
The fact that they always went through the windows and fire exits <3
"You know what's wrong with you, Miss Whoever-you-are? You're chicken, you've got no guts. You're afraid to stick out your chin and say, "Okay, life's a fact, people do fall in love, people do belong to each other, because that's the only chance anybody's got for real happiness." You call yourself a free spirit, a "wild thing," and you're terrified somebody's gonna stick you in a cage. Well baby, you're already in that cage. You built it yourself. And it's not bounded in the west by Tulip, Texas, or in the east by Somali-land. It's wherever you go. Because no matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself."



Paul Varjak: I love you.
Holly Golightly: So what.
Paul Varjak: So what? So plenty! I love you, you belong to me!
Holly Golightly: [tearfully] No. People don't belong to people.
Paul Varjak: Of course they do!
Holly Golightly: I'll never let ANYBODY put me in a cage.
Paul Varjak: I don't want to put you in a cage, I want to love you!
