Tiffany & Co's new short film About Love, which debuted on Tuesday (October 19), features Beyoncé and Jay-Z having a date night.

The short film, directed by Dikayl Rimmasch and second unit director Derek Milton, spotlights the couple's night out on the town, taking inspiration from the backseat taxi scenes from Breakfast at Tiffany's.

The film shows Beyoncé riding into Manhattan in the backseat of a Rolls-Royce, contemplating, "he loves me, he loves me not," before Jay gets in to the car.

"Shall we have pizza?" he is seen asking, and she responds, "I think we need pizza." The two then decide to go for champagne, after which Jay's own Armand de Brignac is brought to their window. The couple then cuddle up to one another, with Paul Anka's classic "Put Your Head on My Shoulder" playing in the background.

The mini-film also features a cameo from the couple's 9-year-old daughter Blue Ivy. The kid is seen wearing glasses and a striped shirt. She gets into the car after running behind it for a while.
