Hello, what I recommend to you today is the 1961 movie starring Hepburn-Breakfast at Tiffany's ( Breakfast at Tiffany's ). Truman Capote, the author of the original book after several disputes when Hepburn was selected, admitted that it was A story tailored for a blond and sexy Monroe, but the agency refused to let Monroe play a call girl. Ironically, Hepburn, who was always dignified and innocent in the minds of the audience, accepted the role. The film also Became a Hepburn forever classic

The innocent and dissolute courtesan Holly (Hepburn) is committed to finding a rich man and changing her life, but she meets Paul, a poor writer who is supported by a rich wife. They meet together to do things that have never been done before, go to the public library Paul's book; to the gift shop to steal worthless masks; to the holy place where nothing bad happens in Holly's heart - Tiffany Paul, who only has ten dollars in cash at Tiffany, engraved Holly's name on the ring and this The ring was just a gift of a box of chocolates. Paul discovered the beautiful and soft side of Holly's heart, but Holly dared not face this beautiful but thin love.

At the end of the film, Paul's confession made Holly brave to reach out to accept love. The two embraced each other in the rain and cried. So, I want to post this classic dialogue here:

Holly: Don't look at me like that, I'm going to Brazil, help me find the New York Times, find out the list of the 50 richest people in Brazil, remember, 50. Paul: I won't let you do that. Holly: You won't let me? Paul: Holly, I love you. Holly: So what? Paul: So what? I love you very much. I love you, you belong to me. Holly: No, there's no such thing as who belongs to whom. Paul: Of course there is. Holly: No one can cage me, Paul: I don't want to cage you, I want to love you. Holly: It's all the same. Paul: No! Holly. Holly: I'm not Holly or Lemmy, I don't know who I am. I'm like this cat, we don't have a name, we don't belong to anyone, we don't even belong to each other. (After opening the car door and throwing the cat on the side of the road) Paul: Driver, please park the car. Miss Anonymous, do you know what's wrong with you? You are afraid, you have no guts, you are afraid to stand up and say: Life is like this. People love each other and belong to each other because this is the only chance for true happiness. You call yourself wild and unruly, but you are afraid that someone will put you in a cage. You are already in a cage. You built it with your own hands. Constrained by geography, it has always followed you, no matter where you go, you are always trapped in yourself. Here, I've had this (ring engraved on Tiffany's) with me for so long, I don't want it anymore.

This film gave the audience a feeling of spring breeze, and Hepburn's beauty seemed to dissolve all the pain and bitterness . Frankly speaking, Hepburn doesn't fit the sexy, money-worshiping and vain courtesan image in the original book. This may be Capote's regret, but it has become our eternal luck.

    If Marilyn Monroe foresaw the film's strong influence on later generations and even established Hepburn's image of the eternal material girl in the eyes of the public and the fashion world, she would not regret not appearing in this film.
