Well, Tiffany's is a jewelery store in new York and the actors do not keep on eating breakfast at Tiffany's throughout the movie. Infact, apart from the opening scene showing Holly(Audrey Hepburn) bunching a bun outside Tiffany's there is not eating anywhere....
So why is the movie so named? Holly is a famous socialite in New York. She describes herself as a wild thing..but the truth is she wants to run away from the cage of life....she has no idea where she belongs...much like the nameless cat that she keeps as pet. Her life is hollow, but she does not know how to fill it....Though she drapes herself in fashionable clothes and maintains a charming smile..she is sad at heart..despite being surrounded by men all the time, she knows she belongs to nobody....she knows all of them are 'rats'..perhaps the reason for her keeping a cat...
she likes Tiffany's and the glitter of diamonds..because thats what she is..she glitters like diamonds...but at the interior she is no more than a blunt trite glass...she is a 'real phony'...
The hollow life has been cast in an utterly lovable Romantic comedy..U will fall in love with Audrey..(I already have ...[:P])..and Peppard's innocent smile will enchant..I deem the movie to be a satire..see what you think..
Overall 8/10
