Great song - the movie didn't do much for me. That happens a lot. Both the Henry Mancini instrumental and Andy Williams vocal both hold up well. One thing - Moon River is obviously the Mississippi River - "Wider than a mile" and "Huckleberry Friend" - but the movie is in Manhattan. Long way from the Mississippi.
