Where it Filmed?
“Breakfast of Aliens” was filmed in Glendale and Hollywood, both in California, USA. On the other hand, “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” was primarily shot in New York. Significant scenes were filmed at East 71st Street on the East Side and the famous jewelry store, Tiffany & Co. on Fifth Avenue. Although the interior scenes of Holly Golightly’s apartment were shot in Hollywood, the exterior of the building can still be recognized at 169 East 71st Street, New York.
