Audrey Hepburn

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000030/

Audrey Hepburn was the class of the Hollywood. The daughter of a baroness, she epitomized everything you would want in the stereotype of the princess. The lady simply oozed class and charm. In "My Fair Lady", the transformation scene is awesome because she perfectly plays the part of someone that you would assume is royalty. Based on who she is early on in the film, it's a huge accomplishment. But for the lady herself, it would be the flower girl that would be the big change. She won an Oscar in her first film performance (Roman Holiday) and lost the Oscar for "My Fair Lady" to Julie Andrews who played the part of Eliza Doolittle on Broadway. Andrews was nominated for "Mary Poppins". Looking at Audrey's career, she starred in a lot of the biggest movies of the last 100 years and co-starred with the top stars (Gregory Peck, Fred Astaire, Rex Harrison, Humphrey Bogart and Cary Grant).

Movies I see her in: Roman Holiday; Sabrina; Funny Face; Charade; My Fair Lady; How to Steal a Million
