In the movie “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” a young woman in New York City meets a young man who just moved in the same apartments as her, but her past life leans on right away. The director is Blake Edwards, and genre is Romantic comedy, comedy drama, classic, and history.

The most important/main characters in the film are Holly Golightly(Audrey Hepburn), Fred(No actor), Paul Varjak(George Peppard), Mr. Yonioshi(Mickey Rooney), and Sally Tomato(Alan Reed). The main character Holly Golightly is shown as a careless and ageless young lady. I think the role is very well suited to Audrey Hepburn. One of the events of hers and Paul Varjak main moments would be her escaping through the window into his apartment. And whenever Holly went into jail because of Sally Tomato. Sally Tomato is a man Holly visits every Thursday morning, and he gives her weather forecast to one of his friends. Sally Tomato pays Holly one-hundred dollars per week. Mr. Yonioshi is the neighbor of Hollys, and Holly always loses her key so she calls him into his apartment so he can open the entrance door for her, which her neighbor doesn’t like very much. I think all actors are well suited for their roles.

I will pick the topic of discussing costumes for the film, because Breakfast at Tiffany’s is a fashion film. The film has great classic type costumes for each character. Edith Head and Hubert de Givenchy did the costumes for the film. The greatest costume was the opening dress that the main character “Holly” wore. She wears a small black dress, long black gloves, Oliver Goldsmith sunglasses, a great multi-Perl necklace, and a tiara. This outfit was very loved by the audience. That outfit is considered the “iconic” outfit of the movie.

The major theme in the movie Breakfast at Tiffany’s is stability & freedom. Holly had a difficult time picking between the two themes. For example, whenever Holly’s husband arrives (Doc Golightly) and asks her to come back home and come with him, she chooses to stay where she is because she knows she needs her own freedoms. In the film Holly is also looking for a man that would be rich and marry her, but in the end she still chooses Paul. Holly went to jail because of Sally Tomato, and she refused to look for another man she could marry.  

   I think that the film deserves a ten out of ten star rating because it is very well filmed, had great costumes, a good cast, and all the roles match the actors that played the roles. I also really like the script, and the characters were very well thought out. In my opinion this movie is well deserved to watch.
