It is very interesting to read about the author of "Breakfast at Tiffany's".
Not only is the film so fulfilling in so many ways, it also is one of Audrey Hepburns greatest films. She just adds so much class to the roles she plays.
I believe that Capote was an admirer of Marilyn Monroe and it was Marilyn he wanted to star in the film. It is hard to imagine anyone else playing the role of Holly.
I suspect if Marlilyn had played the part we would still love the movie but the whole essence of the movie would be so different.
Now I have had a taste of Truman Capote I cannot wait to start reading his books.
