Ask the names of all Hepburn's films.

1. Roman holiday (1953)

Director: william wyler

Style index ★★★★★★★

Aspect: The perfect combination of Audrey Hepburn and gregory peck.

Without Audrey Hepburn, perhaps Roman Holiday would only be remembered by a few people as a mediocre second-rate love movie. But with Hepburn, everything is different. Hepburn, 23, turned the story into a fairy tale and the film into a dream. How many people watch this movie, they will think of meeting such a princess in picturesque Rome, just like the American journalist played by gregory peck, even for a day, even for a moment.

Hepburn's perfect performance also wrote a fairy tale beginning for his life. She starred in this film for the first time, and with this film, she won the Oscar for Best Actress in one fell swoop, which is unprecedented. More surprisingly, Hepburn and the film's costume designer Hyde also won the Best Costume Award.

In a sense, this film has also changed people's lives. Because Hepburn's fresh and beautiful short hairstyle in the film shows Hepburn's beauty, vitality, charm and elegance incisively and vividly, this hairstyle, which was later called "hepburn head", has also been favored by countless fashionable women and swept the world. Hepburn's slim figure has also made the slimming beauty industry flourish, and even Hepburn's clothes, hats and sunglasses in the film are all the rage.

William wyler, the director who watched the demo on the set, once sincerely praised Hepburn: "This movie will definitely make her a lover of the whole world!" For fifty years, his bold judgment has been perfectly proved.

2. twins (Sabina, 1954)

Director: billy wilder

Style index ★★★★★☆.

Aspect: There are stories in and out of the play.

This time, Hepburn is no longer a noble princess, but the daughter of a poor driver. The film tells the story of her falling in love and getting married with the eldest son of a rich man, a man who doesn't understand amorous feelings and only focuses on his career.

It seems that this is a Cinderella story, but the film was directed by the famous Austrian director billy wilder, starring two superstars at that time, william holden, humphrey bogart and Hepburn, and still got a good response.

Hepburn is an Oscar-winning actress at this time, but after all, she is only a newcomer starring in the film, so it is still very nervous to cooperate with two male stars who hold up half the sky.

Bogart, with a big temper, looked down on Audrey Hepburn and said that she could not act. In his view, Hepburn is a fledgling and unknown mistress, and it is simply unfair to play with him as a superstar. Hepburn can only calmly and silently endure his contempt for himself.

However, Hepburn wrote a love story, because he starred in this film and had a long-term relationship with william horton, who played his brother. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, the two failed to live together, and "Dragon and Phoenix Match" failed to achieve a wonderful dragon and phoenix dream in life.

3. War and peace (1956)

Director: Dino De Laurentiis

Style index: ★★★★☆.

Aspect: Hepburn's cooperation with her husband Mel Fergie.

This is a film adapted by Italian director Dino De Laurentiis from lev tolstoy's masterpiece of the same name. Audrey Hepburn co-starred with her husbands Mel Fergie and henry fonda.

The film was once embarrassed that Hepburn was pregnant and could not be filmed as scheduled. During her pregnancy, Hepburn repeatedly read the translation of lev tolstoy's novel War and Peace. She is more and more moved by the noble girl Natasha in the book, and her desire to shape this character is getting stronger and stronger. However, her physical condition made her hesitate.

Laurentis, the director, showed enough patience with Hepburn, and he decided to wait until Hepburn gave birth to a baby before letting Hepburn play Natasha, a slim girl. Hepburn was also deeply moved by the director's sincerity, but later, due to physical weakness and miscarriage, she was in great pain and wavered about whether to make this film.

In the end, Hepburn's strong sense of professional responsibility overcame her inner weakness, and her husband Fergie also thought that playing the important role of Nadasha might dispel the extreme pain that occupied all her thoughts and make her cheer up again. So the film was successfully filmed.

Although the script of the film has been changed over and over again, it is still far from the original, and it is no longer original. However, the wonderful performances of the three leading actors make up for this defect, making it still a masterpiece worth seeing.

4. Funny face (funny face, 1957)

Director: Stanley Du Ning

Style index: ★★★★★

Aspect: Hepburn's exquisite dancing skills

"Every woman should dream of dancing with Fred Astaire all her life." Audrey said this, and she also realized this dream.

Funny Face was originally a musical stage play by the famous dancer Fred Astaire on Broadway 1927. He usually demands the dancing skills of the actors he works with almost harshly, but he admires Hepburn very much. Because Hepburn studied dance for many years and even made up her mind to devote herself to ballet, her dancing skills made the dance king unable to be picky. Astaire is also looking forward to cooperating with Hepburn to perfectly reproduce this musical stage play on the screen. Before shooting, he said, "This is my last and only chance to cooperate with the great and lovely Hepburn. I can't miss this opportunity. "

This film tells the story of a salesgirl in a bookstore in Greenwich Village, new york, who became a world-famous model after being attracted by a fashion photographer. Of course, the highlight of the film is not the love songs they developed later, but the famous dance and music in the film.

Funny Face is Hepburn's first musical film. Thanks to her excellent dancing skills and sweet voice, as well as the famous astaire partner, the film was a success. Because of Hepburn's excellent acting and dancing skills, "funny face" once became synonymous with Hepburn.

5. The story of a nun (1959)

Director: F. Sinneman

Style index: ★★★★☆.

Aspect: Hepburn and Africa

The Biography of a Nun is an autobiographical novel based on true stories. The film tells the story of a nun: Gabriel enters a monastery in Belgium and becomes Sister Luke. However, after the outbreak of World War II, Luca, who helped Dr. Fujunati in Belgian Congo Hospital, was unable to intervene because of some regulations, which made her face some mental struggles.

In order to create a good character, Audrey made a special trip to meet the prototype of the hero in the novel-a great nun with self-sacrifice spirit, and learned the necessary spiritual nutrients to play this role well. Therefore, the spiritual conflict in her portrayal of the role is quite vivid, which convincingly explains why a devout and upright nun can return to vulgarity angrily. The film critics think that this film is one of her best acting films, so she won the Best Actress Award from the New York Film Critics Association and the British Academy of Film Arts, and was nominated for the third Oscar after Roman Holiday and The Match between the Dragon and the Phoenix.

It is worth mentioning that the crew came to Africa to shoot location. Hepburn was not used to the climate here at first, and then he gradually liked Africa. She said that you can see the simplest and kindest people in the world here.

The originality of the great director F. Sinneman made this film one of the most popular films of the year. The Biography of Nuns pushed Hepburn to the peak of attention.

6. Breakfast at Tiffany's

(Breakfast at Tiffany's, 196 1)

Director: Edward Black

Style index: ★★★★★☆.

Aspect: Hepburn plays a prostitute.

During her imprisonment, Audrey read the screenplay Breakfast at Tiffany's, which was adapted by George Axelrod from Truman Capote's famous novella. The story revolves around a young woman, Holly, who lives in the lower class, and her life and experience.

Paramount has planned to shoot this film, and hired Audrey Hepburn as the heroine. Black edward, a promising young director, was invited to direct. At first, Audrey was nervous at the thought of performing in this movie, because there were many disgusting appearances in the movie, and the messy lifestyle of the heroine made her sick. After all, Holly's image is far from the innocent image she played before, and Hepburn is also worried that the audience will not accept it.

However, Hepburn succeeded again with her excellent acting skills. When she was performing, she didn't impose her manners and temperament on Holly, nor did she play Holly as a coquettish and useless woman. The image of Holly created by her is full and credible, reckless, childish and fragile, which pioneered the role of women's liberation in movies in the 1960s and won the Oscar nomination for best actress again.

This film has achieved global success and is loved by many cultural people. Washington post once reported that several college students were "fascinated by Hepburn for a week and seemed to have an irresistible magic, dragging them to the cinema to see Holly Golightly every night".

The film episode "Moon River" is widely circulated and enduring, and it was selected as "the most classic song of the 20th century" not long ago.

7. Riddle in a riddle (charades, 1963)

Director: Stanley Du Ning

Style index: ★★★★★

Aspect: Hepburn's versatility

The young woman Reggie (Hepburn) finds herself being followed by three men after her husband is murdered. At the suggestion of a friend, I learned that my husband participated in an illegal activity, theft and took the huge sum of money for himself with four people before his death. When Reggie, who didn't know where the stolen money was going, was harassed by gangsters, a man named Peter Jashwa (played by gary grant) appeared and helped her out of danger again and again. Reggie thanked Peter and fell in love with him, but didn't expect the truth to come out. Peter turned out to be …

The Hitchcock-style suspense film Enigma has a great significance: it tries to throw the delicate Audrey Hepburn into the abyss of terror, thus making Hepburn show her unique feminine beauty in such a situation. It was another great challenge for Hepburn, who had never made such a film, but Hepburn succeeded.

Hepburn also showed his various talents through movies. For example, Hepburn himself added a lot of popular dialogues to this film. For example, in a scene where Reggie invited Peter to sit at home, she asked gracefully, "Why don't you come in?" I won't bite you. " After a pause, she added, "Unless you ask me." In another scene, Hepburn leans on Grant's shoulder and cries. When she looked up at him, she suddenly said impromptu, "Look! I got your suit wet. " Without thinking, he replied, "Don't worry, it will do it by itself." Hepburn enjoyed their interesting opposite play very much. The film critic said the film was "an excellent light comedy". This is also the most successful film directed by Du Ning.

8. My Fair Lady, 1964)

Directed by George George Cukor.

Style index: ★★★★★★★

Aspect: Hepburn's superb acting skills.

As early as when filming Breakfast at Tiffany's, Audrey told reporters that her biggest wish was to play Irina Karp Tairova in My Fair Lady. This is a musical adapted from the play Flower Girl by British playwright Bernard Shaw. The content of the story is that the phonetician Higgins made an experiment with Irina Captier, a poor flower girl, to correct her pronunciation, vocabulary and manners, so that she could get rid of her dialect and all kinds of rude manners and cultivate her into a noble and rich Miss Sven. In the end, Higgins himself fell in love with the increasingly charming Irina Captier Lova. Irina Karp Tairova finally changed from a pupa to a beautiful butterfly.

Julie Andrews plays Irina Captier Lova in the stage play. Julie was only 18 years old and had a beautiful soprano voice, so the musical My Fair Lady was a great success on Broadway. However, when Warner Brothers decided to make it into a movie, they decided to choose Hepburn, who was more famous.

However, when the film was officially filmed, Hepburn encountered considerable difficulties. Because the film is based on a stage play, there are many songs. Irina Karp Tairova will sing many songs. Although Audrey sang in Funny Face and Breakfast at Tiffany's, in this movie, Audrey's voice is far from enough. The music director laid her cards on the table and told her that all the songs she had spent several weeks recording were invalid, and every song had to be sung and re-recorded. It goes without saying that Audrey is depressed about this.

But in addition, Hepburn's performance is also wonderful. No matter whether she is a simple uneducated flower girl or an elegant lady, she plays it with ease and just right, which proves that Hepburn's artistic attainments have reached the level of perfection.

Regrettably, although the film was highly praised by film critics and audiences, it became one of the representative works of musicals and won eight gold medals, including the Oscar for Best Film, but Hepburn, who achieved the most, failed to win the prize.

9. Wait until dark (1967)

Directed by Mel Fergie.

Style index: ★★★★★

What to watch: Hepburn was nominated for the fifth and last Oscar.

Waiting for Darkness (also translated as Psycho of the Blind Girl) filmed by 1967 is Hepburn's iconic work. This suspense atmosphere is no less than Hitchcock's masterpiece, which further shows Hepburn's gradually evolving performance skills.

She plays a thin, blind woman, who has to deal with strong gangsters who break into houses, and finally wins with wisdom. So, what method did the blind woman use? It turned out that she broke the light bulb, cut off the power supply and plunged her opponent into darkness. Because this is her home, she has gone thousands of times. Therefore, originally fierce gangsters have become "blind" in such an environment. Such a plot setting has brought many problems to the performance: for example, she can't treat things as easily as a normal person, and she can't stumble like a stranger. There is no doubt that playing such a role is another exciting challenge for Hepburn.

In order to experience the life of the blind and find the true feeling, Hepburn went to the school for the blind to consult his teacher, blindfolded himself and even put on contact lenses harmful to his eyes. Finally, in the film, Audrey grasped the performance properly and didn't even blink once in the film. She was nominated for best actress for the fifth time with this film.

10. Forever (always, 1989)

Director: Spielberg

Style index: ★★★★★

What to watch: Hepburn's last movie

Audrey Hepburn, who has always been known as an "angel on earth", finally played an angel in the last film of her life. This film, directed by the famous director Spielberg, tells that the pilot Peter seems to be absorbed in his work, turns a blind eye to the emotional needs of people around him, and never confides his love to his girlfriend. And his girlfriend Dorinda is a wild girl. She always dresses up as a pilot, not pretending to be gentle, and likes to drink with pilots. When Peter started his last flight, he said these words to Dorinda, but they were drowned out by the engine sound of the plane. In action, Peter sacrificed his life to save his best friend Al, but his soul was brought back to this world by an angel named Harper. At first, he was desperate for losing the woman he loved, but in the end, he let his girlfriend fall in love with someone else before leaving with peace of mind.

Hepburn plays an angel in a white shirt, which is elegant and memorable. The whole film is beautiful and gorgeous under Spielberg's fine lens setting, which is pleasing to the eye. Although Audrey only played a small role in this film, as the last film she left us, it is still deeply missed by Hepburn fans. Looking at her like an angel on the screen, I also think about her under the canopy.
