Actress of the Week: Audrey Hepburn

   This weeks actress of the week appeared in 31 films from 1951 to 1989. Audrey Hepburn (1929-1993) was a British actress who was know for her style and wittiness. Her big breakthrough was in the Academy Award winning film Roman Holiday (1953) were she co-stared with Gregory Peck.






  My favorite Audrey Hepburn movie is Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961), which I feel is one of the best acting performances I have ever seen. Now this film does not have the star power that some of her other films had but she is very good in this movie and I suggest everyone watch it at least once. In this film she is funny and is just the life of the movie.
    During her career Hepburn would play alongside some of Hollywood's best. She teamed up with Humpfrey Bogart in the 1954 film Sabrina, as well as co-staring with Cary Grant in the 1963 movie Charade. Hepburn's career was a huge success in all different ways possible. She remains one of few people who have won Academy, Emmy, Grammy, and Tony awards. She was truly one of the great actresses in cinemas "Golden Age".
