Out next week on house video is a new documentary on Audrey Hepburn. Audrey: more Than an icon is offered on DVD or Blu-ray December 15, as well as on VOD on January 5.
I requested as well as was provided a DVD evaluation copy, since a few of her films are a few of my favorites, as well as I was curious to discover more about hoer life. I must have already chosen up more than I realized, since I don’t felt as though I discovered much new enjoying this movie. So much of it was already familiar to me, as she struggles with the war as well as starts as a ballet dancer in London.
It does a excellent task establishing the fundamentals — her life before Hollywood, exactly how she was discovered, her best-known movies (Roman Holiday, breakfast at Tiffany’s, funny Face), the controversy over MY fair woman as well as the dubbing, her other half as well as children, her later charitable work. If you don’t understand much about her, there are lots of facts.
Unfortunately, most of her actual words included right here are audio only, which makes it difficult to make them visual. Writer/Director Helena Coan has selected to run a few of them over footage of an anonymous ballet dancer, alone on a dark stage, to show Hepburn’s early life, however it plays as rather pretentious.
Contributors include director Peter Bogdonavich, film movie critic Mollie Haskell, household members as well as friends, as well as somebody from Givenchy who talks about the clothes. everybody who talks about her states exactly how wonderful she was. I discovered my interest drifting throughout, as the presentation is flat as well as predictable.
Someone who’s a fan may want to have all these pictures, as well as somebody who understands nothing about Audrey Hepburn will discover this a comprehensive introduction — however if that’s the case, why would they watch this documentary?
Here’s the trailer:
