1961 — Breakfast At Tiffany’s
We’ve all met a Holly Golightly – someone who is preoccupied with material wealth, status, and appears to have no care in the world. Rather of perpetuating her stereotype, this adaptation of Truman Capote’s novella tackles both Golightly’s past and hopeful future, as played to perfection by the iconic Audrey Hepburn. It would have been lot easier for both Hepburn and the writers to make Holly a caricature. However, making the socialite a fully developed human striving to conceal anguish and anxiety results in a considerably more compelling and touching film.

1962 — Lawrence Of Arabia
Wartime journalists love a good tabloid headline, and Colonel T.E. Lawrence’s exploits were ideal for both British and American newspapers. In the exhausted World War I trenches, there was suddenly hope, courage, and a face of victory in the crimson haze of no-man’s-land. The astonishing epic directed by David Lean indulges in set pieces and scorching desert action while also peeling back the layers of the man behind the journalistic myth.
