Moon River, wider than a mile,
I’m crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you’re going I’m going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There’s such a lot of world to see.
We’re after the same rainbow’s end,
waiting ’round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.

Breakfast at Tiffany’s is a 1961 romantic comedy-drama starring Audrey Hepburn, George Peppard, Putney the Cat, and featuring Patricia Neal, Buddy Ebsen, Martin Balsam, and Mickey Rooney. The film, loosely based on the novel of the same name by Truman Capote, was directed by Blake Edwards.

Audrey Hepburn’s portrayal of Holly Golightly as the naïve, eccentric café society girl is generally considered to be the actress’ most memorable and identifiable role. She herself regarded it as one of her most challenging roles, since she was an introvert required to play an extrovert. Audrey’s performance of Moon River helped composer Henry Mancini and lyricist Johnny Mercer win an Oscar for Best Song.
