Audrey Hepburn

Looks at Audrey's early life growing up in Holland during the war. Her father was a Nazi sympathiser and her mother of Dutch aristocracy, and this brought about pressures and experiences that Audrey would carry with her throughout her life. Wartime starvation was responsible for her gamin appearance. Her early ambition for a career as a ballet dancer gave her the poise and dignity with which she was eponymous and her 40-year working relationship with the designer Hubert Givenchy created the 'Hepburn Look', which Hollywood film stars are still trying to emulate. Includes reviews of her films, background information and trivia.
