link2source - Breakfast at Tiffany's - Movies & TV - The names Audrey Hepburn and Holly Golightly have become synonymous since this dazzling romantic comedy was translated to the screen from Truman Capote's best-selling novella. - Classic Film -*- link2wiki - a 1961 American romantic comedy film directed by Blake Edwards from a screenplay by George Axelrod and based on the 1958 novella by Truman Capote. **-* Development for the film began soon after the publication of Capote's novel, with several actors, including Marilyn Monroe, Shirley MacLaine, Kim Novak, Steve McQueen, Jack Lemmon, and Robert Wagner, considered for the lead roles prior to Hepburn and Peppard being cast. -
"If I could find a real-life place that made me feel like Tiffany's then I'd buy some furniture and give the cat a name." - "It's useful being top banana in the shock department." - Audrey Hepburn (she meets her upstairs neighbor George Peppard, who lets her escape the fire escape where she was NOT rescuing her cat).

In New York City you really can get to know your neighbors. The characters in the movie are not strangers, but, really they are; and to themselves. The theme of the mask is used in the famous scene I will not describe for fear of spoiling the movie, but you know which scene I'm talking about.

There's nothing quite like taking a stroll down a lane called 'Memory' that never has to end. You'll wish this movie doesn't. But you'll buy that furniture and finally name the cat. - JL - 10-31-2025

What is an Okie who has mastered the French accent? A film star like Audrey Hepburn? Or, the character she plays? An Okie is a person identified with the state of Oklahoma, or their descendants. - link2source - This connection may be residential, historical or cultural. **-* Holly's a piece of carbon, polished into a diamond socialite, pursued by suiters. Her French lessons really paid off.

"Yes, I very much need a drink. Don't take me home 'till I'm drunk." - Audrey Hepburn.

*** # Conclusion # ***
*** # A gigolo meets a lady with a cat, and that's the movie in summary. The whole eating-breakfast-while-standing-in-front-of-Tiffany's thing is a kind of ruse distracting from the main thrust, or point, of the story. And, always and forever, there is the eternal quest for home.
