BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S, 1961/TRUMAN CAPOTE
An autograph letter, signed, from Truman Capote to Audrey Hepburn, dated 23 July, 1960, the letter in blue ballpoint pen on both sides of one sheet, addressed Dearest Audrey, expressing his pleasure that she will be taking on the role of Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, remarking I have no opinion of the film script, never having had an opportunity to read it. But since Audrey and Holly are both such wonderful girls, I feel nothing can defeat either of them, Capote sends blessings on the birth of Sean With two such parents, I'm sure it must be a most beautiful little boy, wicked-eyed but kindly natured, and mentions that he is working on a new book and plans to stay abroad until he finishes it, signed Mille Tendresse, Truman
