Now recorded over a thousand times, Henry Mancini’s song “Moon River” with its lyrics by Johnny Mercer is heard on this delightful new 50th Anniversary extended edition of the music from one of America’s most beloved movies sung, as it was in the movie by Audrey Hepburn.
Based on a novella by Truman Capote, Hepburn plays Holly Golightly, a high class, but fragile “lady of the night”.
With a new and insightful essay by noted film music writer Randall D. Larson, it’s a pleasure to revisit a time when things seemed a little bit gentler than they are today. Indeed, notwithstanding Mickey Rooney’s somewhat miscast character, it’s amazing how little the film has dated.
Pure joy!
