BREAKFAST AT TIFFANYS was one classic in a long string that I hadn't seen. So, I picked it up and gave it a try. This is a marvelous movie that manages to be funny without racy, sexy without being explicit, and moving without being preachy. It's a perfect pick if your teen is looking for a clean comedy in a sea of raunch. However, there are a few parts to be concerned about for younger viewers. Up top, if you look, I said that messages were both positive and negative. That might seem contradictory, but let me explain. Some parts of the movie promote negative morals: Mickey Rooney plays an extremely stereotyped Japanese American to over-exaggerated excess. However, if you explain this to your teen, it shouldn't keep them from seeing the movie. Also, scenes in the film depict over-the-top partying with drinking and drunkeness, and also shoplifting. These are the main cautions before viewing this film. Make sure your kid is mature enough to realize it's just a movie. On the plus side: the two main characters in the film help each other and stick with each other through thick and thin, and, before the end, they discover themselves and their love for each other. There are some sexual references. It is practically spelled out in bright, flashing letters that Holly and Paul are both paid people (Holly gets paid for "trips to the powder room" and Paul sleeps with a married woman). You see a clothed stripper on stage, then peoples' faces as they watch her (you don't see anything explicit). Characters talk about how much she must get paid. But, despite these verbal references, no nudity or sex is ever shown or hinted at. There is no language or violence.
