A Charming Documentary About A Wonderful Woman

This documentary, like Audrey Hepburn, is at first unassuming with a quiet prettiness. However, like Audrey, the more one experiences this film the more one appreciates it. Roger Moore is a charming host. The film includes several clips of Audrey including: numerous interviews, her famous films, and her early work before Roman Holiday. The exposition of her life is nicely balanced; beginning with her childhood, war experience and training as a dancer; and concluding with her career as a mother, work with UNICEF and battle with cancer. There are several touching interviews with family and friends including her brother and her first son Sean Ferrer. The directors interviewed include Billy Wilder (Sabrina, Love In The Afternoon), Stanley Donen (Funny Face, Charade, Two For The Road) and Blake Edwards (Breakfast At Tiffany's). Other people interviewed include actors Gregory Peck (Roman Holiday), and George Peppard (Breakfast At Tiffany's) and other talented people like Henry Mancini and Hubert De Givenchy. Her first husband Mel Ferrer provides great insight into Audrey's personality on and off stage. Ferrer acted with Audrey on film (War and Peace) and stage (Ondine), and directed her as well (Green Mansions). Audrey's love life is covered with respect and dignity without ignoring the difficulties that occurred. I would recommend the documentary to anyone with an interest in the wonderful and magical Audrey Hepburn –a woman with both inner and outer beauty.
