About the Film

Breakfast at Tiffany's is a 1961 American romantic comedy directed by Blake Edwards, loosely based on Truman Capote's 1958 novella. Audrey Hepburn delivers one of cinema's most iconic performances as Holly Golightly, a free-spirited, enigmatic young socialite in Manhattan whose glamorous facade — Givenchy gowns, oversized sunglasses, a long cigarette holder, and a cat named "Cat" — masks a troubled past as a small-town girl running from poverty and a child marriage. When the aspiring writer Paul Varjak, played by George Peppard, moves into her apartment building, their developing romance threatens Holly's carefully maintained independence.

Audrey Hepburn's Holly Golightly became one of the defining screen performances of the 20th century and a permanent fashion icon. Henry Mancini's "Moon River," performed by Hepburn on the fire escape in one of cinema's most tender musical moments, won the Academy Award for Best Original Song. Breakfast at Tiffany's earned $14 million in its initial release and has been preserved in the National Film Registry.
