Breakfast at Tiffany's

Last night, I watched Breakfast at Tiffany's and I was impressed by the cinematographer's use of black in the first bedroom scene where Audrey comes in "Fred's" window...the way that he was framed in black parts of the set was really interesting.

I wasn't really impressed by what Hollywood tried to make pass as "dark"...even the night and party scenes were stuck in the harsh lighting of old film and it's inability to deal with underexposure. It was interesting to see how it resembled the flat lighting in the party scene of a rap video that I did that looked particularly unrealistic.
