Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961) — "You know those days when you get the mean reds?"

from The Kulturecast Hosted by Weirding Way Media

Rom-Com Month kicks off with one of the classics. Blake Edwards' Breakfast at Tiffany's, adapted from Truman Capote's novella, stars Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly, a New Yorker with her sights set on the big time who meets the man of her dreams, George Peppard's struggling writer Paul Varjak, in her apartment building. Chris and Eric found it a film that hasn't aged well, full of anachronisms including Mickey Rooney's astoundingly racist turn as Mr. Yunioshi. Chris Stachiw, the Doctor of Podcasting, and Eric Kniss talk Audrey Hepburn, Blake Edwards, Truman Capote, and so much more.
