Amazon "Reviewer" Needs Thicker Glasses Than Mickey Rooney!
|
| In response to an idiotic and "uninformed", (despite his claiming to have actually viewed the film at least once!?), review by one, "C.Hoffman", of this truly romantic, great, sweet, classic, (and at one time dismissed by ME as "boring, scatter-brained and unfunny"), film that merely solidifies and proves to everyone that Audrey Hepburn was, in fact, the most lovely, charming, magical, and completely "irresitable" woman to ever grace the planet, I feel a need to point out that the film and its original Truman Capote story were indeed about a bunch of "narcissistic and shallow rich people, drinking and smoking and saying stupid lines over and over"... Like they all did and still do! (Go hang out with Paris Hilton for a few seconds and you'll see how true to life the little gay man from Texas had written it!) But the "point" which I must "point out" to you is that in each of their efforts to try and become one of these socially, (if not financially), affluent pigs in "The Big Apple" of the early 1960's, two very "real" people who were "running away" from life and from themselves somehow manage to meet, fall in love, and discover that what really does matter is not all of those creature comforts and attitudes that come with being a rich, socially affluent pig, (who calls everyone "Darling"), but that its their capacity to love someone else, and "be able to help" each of their true "selves" throughout all of the unknown "adventures" to come in this cold, hard, lonely "fact" we call a "life", for better or worse, that every single damned one of us "drifters" must take, first so we can lose, and finally find "ourselves", and start our "life" over again. But mostly, it's about how much more beautiful, and magical, and fun it can all be with a fellow "drifter", (or "Huckleberry friend"), along for the ride... Get it?!? (I know, it took me a little while too.) And one more thing, with regards to the offensive "stereotypical" Landlord character that the great Mickey Rooney unfortunately played, (NOT that he "wrote", or "created" or "directed", but merely "played" because he was "paid"!), he was Japanese, NOT "Chinese"! You could tell by the Japanese decor in his apartment, the multiple flashing camera's set up in it, the Japanese tea ceremony in his kimono, the steaming hot bath, the ridiculously big buck teeth, the "coke bottle" glasses, and all the other pre-post WWII insults and "attacks" made by all of u.s. against all of them, even those patriotic Japanese-American citizens who were stripped of everything then thrown into "internment camps" in the worst places throughout America, as well as his name, which was a very good clue too! ...Got it?... Good! |
