Breakfast at Tiffany's is one of those movies that I watched too young and almost everything went over my head. I watched it this year and noticed so many things I'd missed. When my friends and I went to New York we did the Tiffany's window thing and had ZERO shame.
You're so right about the music. I watched the line up for the Brand New Classics vidshow at VVC and was amazed by how well the music went with the sources for most of the vids. Even the ones with modern music.
I've wanted to vid Breakfast at Tiffany's for a while, but the music has been one of the biggest factors against it. That and how dated it is in terms of race and gender. Do I intentionally make note of those things? Call attention to them? Gloss over them?
A Redford AU is completely possible and interesting to think about.
