I liked Audrey Hepburn, although I have to admit that I didn’t see all of her work. Actually, since I am typically not a movie watcher, I have probably only seen a fraction of her work (My Fair Lady is the only one I know I have seen for sure).
So maybe someone who likes watching movies more than me can help me out on this one. The name of her 1961 classic is Breakfast at Tiffany’s. But Tiffany’s is a jewelry store. So how could someone have breakfast there?
Sounds like an absurb question, I know. But I have wondered it for some time now. And a few years back, the band Deep Blue Something posed the same question. So maybe it isn’t so silly after all. Does anyone know how the movie got that name?
If I recall correctly after sorting through the dim cobwebs of my memory, it was Holly Golightly’s ( AH’s character ) favorite place and she liked nothing better than to window shop there in the morning, while nibbling on something.
I just saw this movie Saturday night. As Tamerlane points out, she goes window shopping at Tiffany’s whenever she needs a “pick me up.” It’s not really breakfast.
This is correct. She’d grab a cheap coffee and croissant or Danish someplace else, and then look at all the expensive stuff at Tiffany’s that she dreamed of having.
Wiggum: Tiffany’s, eh? Uh, looks like Smoochy’s going to seal the deal with a diamond the size of a doll’s head. … A croissant? What the – aw, that’s right, they have breakfast at Tiffany’s now.
Homer: Only till eleven.
My friend bought a gift for his girlfriend from Tiffany’s, and it was his first time shopping there. He said he loved it so much that he wanted to do all his shopping there, and I said “you could make Faberge egg omelets.”
