Watch Breakfast at Tiffany's For Free

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

This movie is the one you have to see if you consider yourself to be a intellectual human at all. Deeply disturbing in existential way but all wrapped up in romantic scenery, with adorable and unachievable Audrey Hepburn...

This is another of those "classic" movies that are often recommended by critics and by individuals, often making it into lists of best movies of all time. I think I must be one of only a few of my age (and I was alive when this movie was made) who hadn't seen BaT until very recently.Look, it might have been a good movie in its day and some people might have found it amusing and entertaining then or now. I'm afraid I'm not one of them.Yes, Audrey was lovely in a ditsy sort of way and George Peppard was quite OK in the role of Fred in a handsome kind of way. But the story, if there ever really was one, is now terribly dated and the movie must have been pretty damned light weight, even in 1961.As I've noted with other movies from many years ago, one familiar and then original piece of music, in this case "Moon River" does not make a movie and I found myself dreading its coming back as it did time and again throughout the overly long minutes that this movie runs.Breakfast at Tiffany's is trivial and unimportant cinema at best and boring and annoying at worst. I won't be watching it again.

6/10 to the amazing costumes and setting, 1/10 to the beautiful Hepburn, 1/10 to the cat Orangey.Orangey the Cat is the best actor of the film, great blocking, great action, he took all my attentions from the movie. He was the only cat who ever won 2 Animal Oscar in history.The plot is not cliché overall, although I don't agree with the values of the movie characters and disagreed with its happy ending's possibilities. But consider it was a movie from the 60s, they could be adoptable back to the days because women really didn't have so many chances. Holly just a girl run from her town at age 14, without any education nor helps, it wasn't surprising that she ends up work as an escort. Just like the sentences, Is she a phony? She is a real phony, believed in all the fantasies: People do fall in love, people do belong each other.

Watched this for the first time today, in 2017, and thought it was a great film thanks to Aubrey Hepburn, George Peppard, and a mostly unembellished and familiar New York City. It's refreshing to see how a film about the relationship between a female escort and a man with a sugar parent was not at all hypersexualized as it would be if it were made today. In fact, I would go as far to say that this implicit representation of sex is what made it interesting yet still incredibly classy and allowed Aubrey Hepburn's character some grace and dignity, despite her being an escort and her, to put it plainly, craziness. A film made like this is definitely a thing of the past which is why it is a treasure.The flaw of the film for me is what also makes the film great: the odd persistence of a man to love a girl that at times seem unbelievably troubled, Holly's amicable relationship with an ex- husband who doesn't seem too different from Holly to be honest (he doesn't believe they're not married anymore? That doesn't sound concerning to you?). It's all far-fetched, but that's just what it is: a modern- day-ish fairy tale.It's definitely something that everyone should watch at least once. It is a piece of history, yet something that feels so recent that it can still captivate the viewer in 2017.
