I can already tell that I am going to get in trouble for this review because I'm going to talk about women and how they act and how they feel. Of course, me being a white, heterosexual, male, I am the last person who would know what's going on in a woman's head. However, before I talk about how I think this movie is one of the reason's why some women act the way they do, I am going to talk about the movie first. Now, I wouldn't say that I was completely invested in the 'plot' or love story, I was more invested in just how the film looked and felt. Some part of me wishes that men and women still dressed that way when they went into public and how a "night on the town" meant dressing classy and elegant as opposed to guys wearing some stupid outfit that looks like it was bought at Value Village or some thrift store but actually cost him thousands of dollars (I'm looking at you Supreme) and girls wearing slutty outfits with their boobs almost falling off and their shorts showing off half their butt. Just reading that back makes me sound extremely pretentious, but I digress. That style of the high class 1960 fascinates me for some reason. I guess it's because I love the old James Bond films like From Russia With Love or Goldfinger. Audrey Hepburn man, oh my goodness. She could still pass for one of the most beautiful girls to ever live. As for the love story, guys, I think a lot of us know this one all too well. We meet a girl, we really like her, and she likes having us around for moral support while she chases guys that are simply not right for her. Whether it be guys who are richer, or better at hockey than you, I think every single guy has experienced that. So it may have been hard to watch certain scenes because they hit too close to home, but then again, this is Hollywood baby. We all know how it's going to end. Kissing in the rain while "Moon River" plays in the background. I know I spoiled it for ya, but you can't expect romance classics from the 1960's to "break the formula". This movie invented the formula... sort of. As for the whole "inside women's brain" thing, two movie characters I see girls post on their Instagram are Michelle Pfeiffer in Scarface and Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's. The caption would be something like, "wish I was like her". As for the Scarface reference, I would say, "You want to marry a crime boss with lots of money who treats you like garbage and overdoes on cocaine?" But to the Breakfast at Tiffany's posts, I understand that more. Which girl wouldn't like to not work and look pretty all the time and have fancy things? Hell, I wish I wouldn't have to work and look like George Peppard and have fancy things with money and living downtown New York City. So if you are a woman who likes the fancy old style of the 60's and wants guys to buy you things and think your looks can take you through life? Then this is the movie for you. You might learn a thing or two. Or, if you are looking for a movie for date night, this is a great choice. It could lead to some serious lovemaking afterward. Too much information? I didn't think so.
