Episode Description from the Publisher

When Hollywood producers got their hands on Truman Capote’s “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”, they thought they’d found the perfect RomCom. There was just one problem: there was no rom in that com because the narrator was gay. In this episode, Chris and Lizzie break down the Audrey Hepburn classic and discover why she was reluctant to take the part, which actor caused the most trouble on set, and how the cinematographer got electrocuted… at Tiffany’s! Plus we discuss the lasting impact of Mickey Rooney’s troubled performance, and discover why Truman Capote himself wanted to spit on the director. Hosted on Acast.
