This past weekend I treated myself to a couple of films from one of Hollywood's best-Audrey Hepburn. She is my favorite classic actress, as she exudes beauty, wit, humor, charm and grace that only few women can. I am of course quite familiar with Breakfast at Tiffany's, My Fair Lady, Roman Holiday, and can now add Funny Face and Paris When It Sizzles to the list. I enjoyed each movie, especially because they were both set in Paris which automatically intrigues me. Her dancing was wonderful, and I found myself laughing out loud several times at her amusing comments toward her leading man. Audrey's stage presence is immediate, as soon as the viewer locates her on screen they are instantly captivated by her unique voice and wide eyes that illuminate the character she plays. Her costumes, designed primarily by Hubert de Givenchy in the majority of the films are absolutely fantastic as well. I can't get enough of her stylish sheath dresses and wonderfully flamboyant headwear! Audrey Hepburn has earned her fame completely, and after seeing one of her movies, one is sure to be enamored with the loveliest leading lady of twentieth century cinematography.
