A beautiful, crazy, surreal trip along a very charismatic Audrey Hepburn. Awesome!

(Too bad about the rascist portrayal of the neighbour as mentioned by others.)

Spent the whole film looking for Rooney, turns out it was (quite rightly) edited out for Sunday afternoon TV.

Nice to see the the young Colonel John "Hannibal" Smith though! Had no idea he was going to pop up.

This is hands down the strangest classic movie I've come across, and probably because it diverged so incredibly far from what I was expecting. This is not your typical romantic movie of the era where a character's biggest flaw is being shy and awkward towards the opposite sex or perhaps being the stereotypical trendsetter playboy. This one is much deeper than that. This film takes a stab at the seedier parts of life through the characters of Holly and Paul that takes us into unfamiliar territory and themes that are lightyears away from standard rom-com fare. It's well acted, and despite Hepburn being well known as being a classy lady this film serves to chip away at that image. Unbelievably, it is so well made that her class is untouched and we still love her for it. The edgier character aspects of Holly's character are glossed over somewhat compared to the book but if you pay attention it's all right there before your eyes.
