DVD Movie: Breakfast at Tiffany's

Image hosted by Photobucket.comDistributor:Paramount Pictures
Movie Release:1961
Genre:Comedy
MPAA Rating:Not Rated

Last night I bought a DVD copy of the Audrey Hepburn movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's". Watched it for the first time and I liked it. Now the song "Moon River" keeps replaying in my head.

Mind you, though, "like" doesn't mean overwhelm. I can't understand why this movie ends up being considered one of the best. Acting's light, the real story's short; and if it wanted to examine society, it didn't do enough. There are poignant moments, especially when the characters have stripped off their high-society skin and become themselves.
