How to evaluate Hepburn's acting skills in Roman Holiday, a classic love movie?

The film starring Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn was a great success and became a classic of Hollywood black-and-white movies. Hepburn's princess image is highly respected in the history of movies.

The princess in the film is natural and unpretentious, which is Hepburn's unique temperament as a new actor. At that time, the fledgling Hepburn received an audition call. At first, she just came with a perfunctory mood. I didn't expect this to be the most legendary audition in film history. After she performed a scene in the movie, the director said "stop" and the photographer kept the camera on. Therefore, during this period, the camera captured Hepburn's feeling of youthful agility unintentionally, which is exactly what the film needs.

When I first met Princess Anne, many viewers were moved by her elegant and pure smile, and their gestures exuded a noble temperament different from ordinary people. That kind of almost angelic dignity can not be achieved by acting alone, but also because of Hepburn's beauty, which has made Roman Holiday a classic.

The princess was kind, naughty and naive, and we followed her footsteps to Rome. Behind this seemingly natural character image is actually a clever acting skill. As the saying goes, most performances are unnatural. But when watching, the audience seems to have lost the perspective of the camera, but really saw two people playing freely without any feeling of watching. It can be said that this natural atmosphere gives the audience a great sense of substitution, and also makes the film particularly refreshing.

Hepburn's acting skills are brought into full play at the end of the meeting in the film. The meticulous audience will find that in the last long laugh, there is a painful transition from the joy of seeing the lover to the sadness of parting. It is no exaggeration to use "magic" to describe it. The princess's reserve allows neither joy nor sadness. In the emotional waves, even the most critical person can only detect a trace of melancholy flashing under those beautiful black eyes. The overall facial expression is meticulous to the minute, meticulous to the eyes and eyebrows, and no disguise is allowed. But Hepburn did it.

Gregory peck once said: "Roman holiday" is Hepburn's film, and I am only a supporting role. 1On March 25th, 954, 24-year-old Hepburn won the Best Actress Award in the 26th Academy Awards for her wonderful performance in Roman Holiday. That night, Hepburn, who never thought she would win the Oscar, was too excited to speak on the podium, but she did not forget to tell the world: "This is a gift from Parker!" " "
