this was one classic i never got to watch until now. i didnt know what ive been missing!its a delightful movie. the treatment is very light, even fanciful. but i found that on another level, the movie is actually quite profound. holly is simply a charmer but also very lost and sad. she has her dreams and tries her best to use her assets to get what she wants. she encounters paul, writer and boytoy as her upstairs neighbor. they are drawn to one another. paul falls in love, holly pulls away.
the ending, of course, is still that hollywood kiss, as realizations happen and true love is acknowledged. there is a sadness in the way the movie actually progresses. and only true love dispels that.
i like that they are actually quite the same. holly comes out as even more true to herself since paul hides behind his writer facade.
thoroughly enjoyable. and i didnt even begin to talk about the clothes! :)
