17 years ago today, my favorite actress, Audrey Hepburn died at the age of 63. :( She will always be loved by her fans and for the person that she was. I'm going to say how much she means to me.
I guess I don't remember the exact year that I started liking her. I thought that I first saw her movies in 2008, but it looks like from posts i've made on other sites and stuff that it was in 2007. I think what it was was that I liked her in 2007, but I didn't really become a huge fan of her until 2008. :) Anyway, I rented like 5 of her movies and the first one that I watched was Roman Holiday. I thought it was really cute and I liked it a lot. Then I saw Sabrina, Funny Face, My Fair Lady and Breakfast at Tiffany's. I was kind of confused by that at first, but then I loved it after I saw it a few more times. After I saw those I went through this Audrey Hepburn/Julie Andrews movie phase where I was trying to see more of their films. So the summer of 2008 when we went to Hollywood I was really into Audrey and so I got a purse of her and saw her star on the Walk of Fame and yeah. She became my favorite actress. Then I got some books about her and everything. She was just such an amazing person and she was so genuine in her films. You could see so much of herself in her roles. Everyone that worked with her loved her.
I love what Robert Wagner said about her in his autobiography: "Audrey was sensational to work with: professional, relaxed, engaging, endearing-the most helpful, loving person you could imagine." "Audrey's essence as a human being shone through her acting and lifted her movies up by yards, not inches or feet. I have never known any woman other than Jill whose personality was so reflected in everything she did." "Audrey's spirit was embodied in her garden, her furniture, her paintings, her jewelry, her dogs, her linens. She absorbed everything she experienced and saw in her life, took it into her subconscious, her soul and then somehow contrived to radiate it outward onto everything she touched." I agree with him. She was so elegant and classy and I just love her so much. I love what she did for UNICEF and how good of a mother she was and everything. She was so cute and had a great sense of humor. She is my role model. She will always be loved and missed. RIP Audrey.
I am also making a video of Audrey, but it's probably not going to be uploaded until tomorrow cause I have been really busy and haven't been able to get it finished.
