The Character s Views On Love - 1078 Words

The character’s views on love in the two movies vary throughout the characters but also show similarities through others. Samantha Borgens and Holly Golightly have the most similar view and story. They both do not put love at the top of their priority list and, also, have a twisted view on it, however, Samantha is far more cynical. She saw her mother leave her father and watches him stay hopeful that she will return. Samantha states, â€Å"If love is setting a place at the table for someone who is never coming home. I think I’ll pass.† She avoids falling in love and uses boys for her own personal usage. Holly Golightly also has the same habit of avoiding love and using men to gain what she wants and in her case, it is money.

That’s my motto.† Their relationship started out far more hostile than Holly and Paul’s.
