    Billy Wilder said of Audrey, "What Audrey had you can't learn and you can't teach, god kissed her on her cheek and there she was." Perfect.

    Audrey was doing films in Hollywood at a time when sexy bombshells where all over the place. But, men could not take their eyes off of this beautiful, elegant, and sensitive woman. And, she actively worked for UNICEF for the grand salary of $1 per year. She will be missed, but never forgotten.

If you haven't seen it, Sean made a beautiful documentary about his mother. It's in 4 parts. Here is the link for the 1st part - ua-cam.com/video/F-EouugFYq8/v-deo.html - Or just type in - Audrey Hepburn by her son.

    Beautiful to see Sophia Loren's reaction to Sean Ferrer's entrance on stage. She, like Audrey, was a child of WWII, experiencing and surviving all the deprivations thereof. That is why she beams empathy when she looks upon Sean. She is channeling his mother.

    AUDREY HEPBURN was the very definition of a classic Golden Age Hollywood movie star. But also much more than that. Glamourous, elegant, refined, immensely talented but also humble, generous, compassionate and thoughtful. We may never see the likes of her again. What a shame she never lived to be really old. Forever Holly Golightly. RIP.

    In public she seemed always very strong and smiling at any time of her life, even if it wasn't the easiest and happiest ( e.g. there are some pictures which were taken during the filming of The Unforgiven, just after she had had an accident and hurt her back seriously. In spite of the pain she could still smile at her husband Mel . She had incredible self-restraint..)
    But at 0:50 she lost strength for a moment and there are tears in her eyes...she was also just a human, but an extraordinary one.
    God bless you, Audrey!

    The most beautiful lady that has passed through the silver canvas. Elegant, sophisticated and at the same time simple. Her inner beauty was reflected in her beautiful eyes that lit up the screen and the hearts of those of us who were lucky enough to see her playing whatever role she made it sublime. "Moon Rive" is the best interpretation that could have been made of that song. We will always remember you.

Unlike most celebs, who seem to pay lip service to whatever the current charity of choice happens to be, Our Fair Audrey wasn't afraid to go to the far-flung corners of the world, and get her hands dirty, for UNICEF, and at least two generations of the world's children owe her a debt of thanks that can only be reciprocated, never repaid.
    She was also my first big crush after seeing "My Fair Lady" as a six or seven year old.
