Poll question: Anybody like Audrey Hepburn?
If so, here is a little poll. What is your favorite Audrey Hepburn film?

1. I loved the movie "Charade"
I thought Audrey Hepburn was particularly beautiful and classy in that film, with Paris as the backdrop, Cary Grant as her co-star, and that wonderful film's theme song.

4. Impossible to say...
I am one of those movie goers who is absolutely in love with Audrey! I think she has a truly magical screen presence that few have ever matched.

I will say that one of my very favorite Audrey moments is her Beat dance number in "Funny Face" -- it is delightful to see her sing and dance with such skill and enthusiasm.

She was one class act - they just don't make them like that anymore. :(

5. "Breakfast at Tiffany's"

I read the Capote story and thought that Audrey Hepburn was perfectly cast.

She was absolutely transcendent on screen. One of the most beautiful, classiest women ever to grace a movie screen.

6. I agree, but Capote apparently didn't he saw Marilyn Monroe
as Holly.

8. I didn't know that.
I suppose I could see MM as Holly Golightly...but I'm glad Hepburn was chosen instead.

9. I love love love Audrey!
She is nothing short of phenomenal, my dear WI_DEM!

All her movies are wonderful, but....

If you haven't seen "Wait Until Dark"........you are missing out!

Very scary and realistic, IMHO......

VERY! :scared:

10. I picked up a DVD boxset last month with
Roman Holiday, Sabrina, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Funny Face and Paris When It Sizzles. For any interested Brits, it's still only £11.99 at HMV:

My favorite film remains Roman Holiday although there's several - mainly her later films - that I haven't seen.

It's hard to pick just one film out of those. She's one of my favorite actresses and favorite people. :)
