Changes

The movie begins in Los Angeles with a party of (white) jet-setters, where Edward breaks up by phone with his New York girlfriend. He borrows his lawyer's car and picks up Vivian in a [[meet cute]] where he stops to ask for directions. In his own element, he starts teaching her how to act in upper-class society, draping his coat around her so her garish street clothes won't stand out. Other little things he teaches her include: not calling attention to herself when entering an elevator; the fact that bellboys want to be tipped; the idea that strawberries go well with champagne.
