No, I haven't read the book, though I really want to, especially after seeing the movie. Hepburn has this magical presence in this movie, soothing you through her demeanour of the chaotic, but amiable Holly. Her pursuit of her dreams, her red means, all this make you sympathize with her. Also, this movie is set in a completely different timeframe, so things seem totally different. Indeed, this movie makes me want to read the book, since the source is always better. Not having read the book, I must say this is a classical at its best.

I can't get past the racist Mickey Rooney in yellowface character. But if you can, then it's a great movie - especially if you're a lonely teenage boy. Seriously though, it is a prototype for the subgenre of lame boy gets unpossessable woman that's too cool for him. And it's got a young waifish Audrey Hepburn.

If you're a fan of hers, you'll love it. If you just think she's okay, well, that's how this movie will turn out. It's all about Audrey in this one!

strange to see such a innocent acting hooker, and Peppard asusch a dignified same such. Never knew this movie was about this topic

Slow getting of the ground. It took a while before I realized what the characters were all about. But eventually it turns into a nice love story. Women should love it.

A great lady film could have evolved from the material. This movie was a big disappointment. My Fair lady was one of her best social comedy films released. Oh and this is not suitable for children ...

If you read the book then you'd be disappointed by the movie. Of course most of the time that's the case. To it's credit, the ending was what Hollywood expected in that time frame.
