Breakfast At Tiffany’s (1961)
Original Paramount Pictures b&w photo still #10372/67.
This still shows Holly Golightly (Audrey Hepburn) and Paul Varjak (George Peppard) at the New York Public Library. In a playful attempt to do things they’ve never done before, Paul takes Holly to see the library's card catalogue and even autographs his own book for her. Holly’s wide-eyed curiosity and her oversized funnel-neck coat emphasise her gamine charm, while the setting reinforces the film’s theme of seeking intellectual and emotional substance amidst a life of surface-level glamour.
Breakfast at Tiffany’s became a classic by wrapping a slightly sad, slightly messy love story in a stylish package. It made loneliness look glamorous, romance feel complicated and helped set the tone for a more modern kind of rom com where feelings don’t always come neatly tied up.
