She could sing, dance, act, speak 7 languages, was an incredible humanitarian and the definition of beauty and grace. A true inspiration and one to be remembered through the ages.
Interesting fact: Audrey won herself a scholatship to Ballet Rambert after the war and trained under Marie Rambert herself. Rambert also housed and fed Audrey in her own home for 6 months.
Fortunately, at last Audrey Hepburn was the definition of elegance, international star, fashion icon, humanitarian, one of the most beautiful woman in the world, and the face of the 20th century instead of being just a ballet dancer.
And only a few short years later, she would play a princess in a film..and become one of the worlds top stars of the cinema. She was Beautiful and Amazing.
She was absolutely wonderful intelligent and when you think of what she did supporting the Resistance knowing she could be shot like her Uncle she was so brave. When the Allies arrived she was close to dying from Starvation and they didn't have the right medication so had to use Chocolate to keep her alive. Her struggle with her weight was a constant battle nearly causing her not to have the Children she desperately wanted. Beautiful Graceful and Enchanting with that wonderful slow smile of her's! No wonder Givenchy adored her she could look a million dollars in a Bin Bag! Cancer of the Appendix is rare and impossible to treat even today. Gregory Peck became a great friend from day one filming Roman Holiday and he did the address at her Funeral saying he'd lost a wonderful friend.
Vulnerable kind and sweet. Many actors on The Tonight Sgow said she was their favorite of all actresses; truly humble and kind in real life to everyone.
I just can imagine what it would be like if she danced with my favorite ballet dancer.. just as wonderful as her, beautiful and graceful, gentle and expressive, like her rare human being and a true gentleman. And a man with incredible intellectual mind. What a pair they would have made. th-cam.com/video/0ilojZDyIdM/w-d-xo.html
idfk Oh yes of course, she was the second coming of Jesus Christ. We need to canonize her already and pray to her and even make human sacrifices in her honor. Damn what is it about this woman that makes you all deem her as perfect?
@@RandomPerson-qi7oc A good deal of good old blind nostalgia, too, guessing from the "now we have..." comment. Basically, she was pretty great as film stars go, but it's not like there wasn't a great deal of not so great ones in her day, and it isn't like there aren't some pretty good ones nowadays. Who may well end up subject to a similar kind of nostalgia in fifty or so years.
i still remember that i saw this movie with my grandfather when i was 4 years old. i got fascinated by the dance and by 5 i learnt how to ballet and belly dance. now, since my 12 years old, i do gymnastics. btw, the movie was released in uk 50 years after my birthday, funny! :-) thanks, audrey!
And her dance teacher said Hepburn that she was too weak to become a ballerina. But Audrey didn't give up and became the most iconic person of all time. She was, is and will be always the best.
No, not too weak! She was deemed too tall at her height, so hard for male partners to work with, like lift and throw. Height also means more weight, again, not convenient for throwing.
@@Arhimith well yes, but her ankles were weak from malnutrition (making it harder to go on point for long periods of time) though her tall stature didn’t make it her the most ideal partner as well
Well, for one they hired an actress to, well, act. For another, I think she does pretty well for someone who learned dance while avoiding Nazi death squads and Allied bombs during WW2.
@@hellmuthschreefel9392 Granted, but she’s a pretty good representation of ballet at the time. She was at the top of her game. So it still is a very good example of how much ballet has evolved. She is the level of a low intermediate dancer in today’s world.
@Autrice Regan Holdridge because she suffered major malnutrition and lack of dance lessons during WW2 in Arnhem (NL) she would never be able to reach the top of the ballet world. If someone is interested in her youth and her dancing background I really recommend reading “Dutch girl” by Robert Matzen. He writes about her life in the Netherlands during WW2, which was a time in her life that had been quite unknown, also for her other biographers. If you are interested in Audrey Hepburn, this is a must read, very informative and interesting and will give you a much more complete idea of Audrey Hepburn.
El final de la música que baila es la famosa pieza El canto de los Pájaros, una canción tradicional catalana, la misma que interpretó él chelista Pablo Casals en la sede de la ONU, a favor de La Paz mundial.
Well, she was not as good as say Cyd Charisse, but still, you can see she had a lot of training, and she certainly did not need a dance double ! She was a gem...
That's a totally inapt comparison. Honestly! And Cyd was a soubrette, not an ingenue. In ballet, she'd not have become a prima ballerina. Audrey could have.
@@nonenoneonenonenone Charisse studied ballet with Bronislava Nijinskaia and was chosen at 14 to enter The Ballets Russes.... Not bad for a little girl from Texas who would "never have become a prima ballerina"...
As much as I love her as an actress GOD SHE BEAUTIFUL AD A DANCER. She really come out and you can tell how much she LOVED to dance. She never considered her self an actress but a dancer making films. I used to dance ballet and watching her dance literally made me cry. SHE IS THE APITIMY OF COMPLETE BEAUTY COMPLETE EVERYTHING❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️💃🏽📸👄🤼👗👠👛🕶️☂️
Одри - она единственная! Да простят мне это все звезды экрана! Но у неё не было физических данных, чтобы стать примой-этуаль. Одри очень бы страдала от этого. Эти записи сделаны, когда ей было 16-18 лет, а в 25 и 35 балерина должна продолжать работать. Я восторгаюсь её красотой, грацией, изяществом и думаю, что, пережив в душе трагедию ухода из балета, в дальнейшем, Одри поняла, что её судьба в большом кинематографе сложилась чрезвычайно удачно и счастливо. А балетная выправка, "прямая спина" всегда ставили её в выигрышное положение во всех ролях. Одри Хепберн одна единственная в Вечности.
I read a biography about Audrey's years as a child during the war. It was horrific. They always wondered how they would last another day, and yet, somehow they did.
I'm shocked to see a few 'snipes' about Audrey's dancing!😡 A STARVED WW 2 REFUGEE, training gaps due to war's travails - not a usual dancer bio. To gripe makes YOU, not Audrey, look bad.
Notice how her knees are bent, how she supports her body, her arms on not connected to her back, she is not keeping her positions. Is it just because I am a dancer that I notice these things?
Apparently. I was a dancer and I noticed also, however when I watched the movie "A Late Quartet", I couldn't tell that only one of the players was a professional musician.(Since I'm not a musician.) It was fun to read reviews though and see how musicians go nuts over the bad technique of the non-musician actors. Watching Natalie Portman in Black Swan nearly drove me crazy when they weren't using her double. Mostly because she was supposed to be an up and coming prima ballerina. Have you seen the series Flesh and Bone? Now that was a real treat. Beautiful dancing. BUT, I still love Audrey, and Natalie and even poor Phillip Seymour Hoffman, who unbeknownst to me had terrible violin technique! While looking up the movie title I came across a movie where Audrey plays a cellist!! I have to check it out...
I also notice these things! My teacher would have corrected me if my arms had been so floppy and had my knees bent! Theres a lack of power and hold when springing up. The moves also feel a little chaotic.
***** when l was a boy once l saw her live in st tropez and she was still fantastic was early 70's but her beauty disappaired very early imo in her late 40 she was already looking like an old bag.
***** sophia loren aged well for ex but BB become a old bag very early ,me too take a lot of sun because l love dark colour in skyn but at 61 l am not an ol bag as she lol
As a ballerina, she actually wasn't that good. Get that leg up, Audrey! I was more interested in seeing her co star, I can't remember her name, the one who played the mad nun in Black Narcissus.
I love Audrey Hepburn but she wasn't very good. She was not flexible at all and her arabesques were really low. Technically she is at the level of many teen girls today who are at Intermediate and Advanced...
Goes to show how rather plain looking she was without all the makeup, airbrushing, signature brows, and Givenchy. You people hype this woman up WAY too much.
Emma Smith Why the fuck would I be jealous of some overhyped, dead broad? I’m just stating the obvious. She was rather plain looking and very airbrushed to look as good as she did later on.
Laura Streeter “Here’s the thing you may not know about Audrey Hepburn.” Assuming that I haven’t done my research on this woman aren’t we? There’s a lot of falsehoods in what you have said. Contrary to what people want to believe there have been several kind, humble, and sweet natured people in Hollywood, not just Audrey (even if unfortunately today there are more bad people in Hollywood than good). There is Keanu Reeves whom I actually consider to be more authentic than Audrey because he doesn’t have an image like Audrey did, he has always genuinely been a good person and he has helped those less fortunate, but does so in a more quiet way than Audrey did. And he is such a sweetheart to the people who he’s worked with even if they are just crew members, he makes sure that they get paid well. There’s Angelina Jolie who actually adopted children from third world countries and spends most of her time helping others less fortunate. She’s also doing it at an earlier age than Audrey. There’s Rick Moranis who didn’t have to, but gave up his career in Hollywood and never went back, in order to raise his children when his wife died of cancer. There’s Danny Trejo who even though he comes off as intimidating and has a shady past, has proven himself to be selfless; he saved a baby even if it risked his own life. There’s also Mr Rodgers who created Mr Rodgers Neighborhood to set a good example for children. And the list goes on of so many unselfish great people in this world, yet the only one who is elevated to almost saint level is Audrey? That is exactly what irks me: All the fans who make it seem like she was the most perfect human to exist. Well she wasn’t. Another thing that upsets me is that people claim that she was the most beautiful, graceful, classiest woman ever and that no other woman could ever compete. All that does is discredit women who are genuinely good people and do have all those qualities that were just listed. But because they aren’t Audrey they aren’t even acknowledged. And don’t get me started on how people bash any woman who is compared to Audrey. Marilyn being a good example. Marilyn who was a victim of child abuse and exploitation, who also suffered from mental illness. So much for ending the stigma of mental illness right? To further prove my point you just brought up the Kardashians. The Kardashians aren’t good people but ever thought that they along with many others get plastic surgery because of an insecurity and they just want to feel good about themselves? This crap has got to stop. We need to stop putting other people down who aren’t Audrey. Audrey wasn’t perfect. She had her addictions, may have had anorexia, and got involved with married men. Imagine how William Holden’s wife must have felt when she found out about their affair. What if it was you? Would you be so keen on defending Audrey then? This is why I can’t look up to her. Thanks for the respectful comment, I hope you can see things from my point of view.
She could sing, dance, act, speak 7 languages, was an incredible humanitarian and the definition of beauty and grace. A true inspiration and one to be remembered through the ages.
Sing? Do you really think she could sing?
eudorabis Moon River
eudorabis Absolutely.
She worked hard on it
How many of those born after her death can even tell her apart from the other Hepburn?
Interesting fact:
Audrey won herself a scholatship to Ballet Rambert after the war and trained under Marie Rambert herself. Rambert also housed and fed Audrey in her own home for 6 months.
She learned to become a fair lady then
i love how she looks so happy when she daces. she is just glowing with happiness and it's contagious!
Fortunately, at last Audrey Hepburn was the definition of elegance, international star, fashion icon, humanitarian, one of the most beautiful woman in the world, and the face of the 20th century instead of being just a ballet dancer.
MeMyIdea
just call it being a ballerina
Nuri Lidar it's the same thing, what's the problem? Lol
"Just a ballet dancer"?
N DiPasquale I completely agree!! I wish I could have been "just a dancer"! ☺️😉✝️⚜️
I love that the ballet of yesteryear had a firm grasp on the artistic aspect of the dance.
And only a few short years later, she would play a princess in a film..and become one of the worlds top stars of the cinema. She was Beautiful and Amazing.
She was absolutely wonderful intelligent and when you think of what she did supporting the Resistance knowing she could be shot like her Uncle she was so brave.
When the Allies arrived she was close to dying from Starvation and they didn't have the right medication so had to use Chocolate to keep her alive.
Her struggle with her weight was a constant battle nearly causing her not to have the Children she desperately wanted.
Beautiful Graceful and Enchanting with that wonderful slow smile of her's!
No wonder Givenchy adored her she could look a million dollars in a Bin Bag!
Cancer of the Appendix is rare and impossible to treat even today.
Gregory Peck became a great friend from day one filming Roman Holiday and he did the address at her Funeral saying he'd lost a wonderful friend.
The first 22 seconds with her smile that could launch 1000 ships.
Vulnerable kind and sweet. Many actors on The Tonight Sgow said she was their favorite of all actresses; truly humble and kind in real life to everyone.
0:19 that wink tho
i could never wink without looking ridiculous xD
Gosh I wish we had more people like her. Now we have....... no comment. I love her!! 💕💕
You didn't have to finish, I understand perfectly what you tried to say.... I adore her...

Was there ever anyone more charming than Audrey?
She is so gorgeous and graceful💕
now i love her even more
What a find ... I have just posted it over to Russia for my Ballet friends ! ... a million thanks .

Lovely! ❤️❤️❤️
What a legend
I never knew she did ballet too! What an actress!
She danced in underground clubs during the war to make money for the Resistance. She led a really interesting life.
Es tan perfecta 😭💙, mi ejemplo a seguir.

すごく昔のバレエなのに、上手いですね。
Such a waste that no producers at the time didn't have the initiative to utilize her ballet skills in at least one movie.
They did. This one!
who was the male dancer with her at the end?
Which Chopin's waltz is this one ?
Op. 34 no. 1 :)
honestly is there anything she can't do

My goodness, she'd have been one of the greatest ballerinas.
That 😉 wink
To me she's a Giselle
She Walks in Beauty, Like the night………Poem by Lord Byron IS Audrey Hepburn.
I see Audrey on flat shoes and a blurry lookalike on pointes.
Is that Patricia Neal in the theatre box?
It’s Valentina Cortese.
Did she continue ballet as a hobby as an adult I wonder

2021
Is this 1958?
SlimePonyGirlTV Moon it said on description 1952
No, it´s 1951, so Audrey would be 22.
Audrey would definitely be a Giselle
Кто солист на 2м20-й секунде? Замечателен!

not bad for an amateur awful at a certain level
