even if they're all classic and stuff.

I agree that it is a very iconic film and that Audrey's image has become iconic because of it. However I consider this a true classic. It's a great film. Sure it is very different than the source material but its still a great movie.
I have watched it so many times I don't even keep count anymore. It's one of those movies you watch and can actually enjoy it like its the first time you have watched it, it never gets dull. At least for me.
Also generations of people have watched the movie since the film first was made in 61. That was not exactly a couple of years ago.

Most people just know it from the look that Audrey Hepburn made famous, if you showed them a picture of Audrey they'll spit out Breakfast At Tiffany's like some warshack test.
Oh my god. It's RORSCHACH test! So clever.

I can see that point. Audrey's look from BAT has become so iconic that it's been slapped on everything from mousepads to iPhone covers. The film itself has a dark heart in the fact that Holly Golightly is basically a pretty F-ed up person with a lot of self-esteem issues and a huge identity crisis. It's presented in a pretty fluffy package and loses most of the bite of the original Capote novella.
