Fifty years ago, Breakfast at Tiffany's made its debut. This iconic film went on to become one of the most romantic and beloved comedies of all time.
Holly Golightly remained the most memorable role of Audrey Hepburn.
No one has managed to capture Hepburn's character, charisma and enigma with more visual eloquence than Bob Willoughby, who met her shortly afer she arrived in Hollywood in 1953. He was mesmerized by her personality and continued to shoot her for more than ten years.
Willoughby wrote : "I really didn't know what to make of Audrey when I first saw her. She certainly was not the typical image of a young starlet, for that was what I had been sent to photograph. I watched her across the room and she did have something ... but I couldn't quite put my finger on it until I was finally introduced to her. Then that radian smile hit me right between the eyes, warming me inside like a shot of whisky. She exuded some magic warmth that was hers alone."
