#mickeyrooney — Public Fediverse posts

Das ikonische Standbild kennt jede:r: Audrey Hepburn in schwarzem Kleid, mit Zigarettenspitze, Hochsteckfrisur, Perlenkette, vor dem Schaufenster von Tiffany & Co., einsam wie ein Denkmal. Ein Bild, das sich in das kollektive Gedächtnis eingebrannt hat wie ein Werbeplakat für eine Zukunft, die nie kam. Ein Bild, das – so feministisch man(n) sich auch bemüht – leider nicht verschwinden will. Es ist schön und es ist gefährlich. Weil es so tut, als würde es etwas erzählen, das es in Wahrheit verschweigt. (3Sat, Wh.)

You HAVE to make time to watch #BreakfastAtTiffanys, which despite the racist portrayal of #MickeyRooney in #YellowFace as Hepburn's (Holly GoLightly's) upstairs neighbor, is one of my fave movies of all time.

It's ranked 61st in one the AFI's list of 100 best movies ever made & the AFI later ranked the movie's theme song -- #MoonRiver at 4th of 109 mobies for the best song.
