Synopsis:
Breakfast At Tiffany`s
The names Audrey Hepburn and Holly Golightly have become synonymous since this dazzling romantic comedy was translated to the screen from Truman Capote`s best-selling novella. Holly is a deliciously eccentric New York City playgirl, determined to marry a Brazilian millionaire. George Peppard plays her nextdoor neighbour, a writer who is `sponsored` by wealthy Patricia Neal. Guessing who`s the right man for Holly is easy. Seeing just how that romance blossoms is one of the enduring delights of this gem-lke treat,set to Henry Mancini`s Oscar-winning score and the Oscar-winning Mancini/Johnny Mercer song, `Moon River`.

Sabrina
Sabrina is charming, humorous and aglow with some of Hollywood`s greatest stars. Humphrey Bogart, William Holden and Audrey Hepburn star in a Cinderella story directed by renowned filmmaker Billy Wilder (Sunset Boulevard, Some Like It Hot). Bogie and Holden are the mega-rich Larrabee brothers of Long Island. Bogie`s all work, Holden`s all playboy. But when Sabrina, daughter of the family`s chauffeur, returns from Paris all grown up and glamorous, the stage is set for some family fireworks as the brothers fall under the spell of Hepburn`s delightful charms.

Funny Face
Jo Stockton (Audrey Hepburn) is a bookshop worker with intellectual pretensions. Discovered by the editor of a top fashion magazine and asked to become the figurehead of a new collection, Jo is talked into going to Paris by magazine photographer Dick Avery (Fred Astaire), and they soon become romantically involved. An all-singing, all-dancing Technicolor extravaganza that manages to poke fun at both the shallow world of fashion and the pretentious Beat Generation movement - and features classic George and Ira Gershwin songs.

Paris When It Sizzles
William Holden portrays a screenwriter with a script deadline in three days. When he asks secretary Audrey Hepburn to help concoct ideas, she acts out a potpourri of preposterous plots. Beautifully shot on location in Paris by famed cinematographer Claude Renoir.
