To the people running the Carson TH-cam channel... I want to thank you guys wholeheartedly for responding to my request for this priceless gem of a clip.

He was clearly nervous, she could barely say a few words until several minutes in. It was endearing how bumbling he was while she just smiled charmingly. She seemed held back tho, so maybe he was trying to fill in the gaps since she offered so little. This was toward the end of her marriage with her philandering psychiatrist husband and 2 years after a miscarriage. She looked quite underweight here, also approaching menopause. Always so graceful, however, no matter what.
@@noneofyourbusiness9369 Yes, she also had affairs but that doesn't take away from the hurt that was caused. She and her family have said that she had health issues related to having been malnourished as a child during the war and that it wasn't an eating disorder. But she was a heavy smoker which took a toll on her health when she was already so thin which led to her frailty. And by this age, she may have already been developing the cancer from which she eventually died.

Sublime. She’s operating on a different level than 99% of mankind. So unhollywood, class and humility without false modesty. A force with a hushed , hypnotic voice.
One of the classiest ladies in the entertainment industry. Tough as any person ever doing what she did in World War II. Plus with her working with the UN and handling cancer, a true great
I wish Audrey was alive in an era where there was more media so that future generations can watch as much of her interviews as possible. She's such an elegant and graceful being. Thank you to the Johnny Carson channel for the upload.
Ms. Hepburn wasn’t nominated for an Oscar for MFL because the Academy wanted to punish her for “stealing” the role of Eliza from Julie Andrews who originated the role on Broadway in 1956. At the time the film version of MFL went into production in 1963, Ms. Andrews was not a major star and Jack Warner, the producer, didn’t want to take a chance on her. So he picked Ms. Hepburn, who had already won an Oscar, for the lead role. Mr. Warner was pulling out all the stops for the production and did not want to take any chance on “unproven” talent. As it turned out, Julie Andrews won the Oscar that year for “Mary Poppins.” Many people thought that it was payback for being denied the starring role in MFL. Ms. Hepburn’s performance in the film version of MFL was arguably better than Ms. Andrews’ performance in Mary Poppins and was certainly Oscar worthy.
@@jstasiak2262 Julie Andrews even thanked Jack Warner in her acceptance speech since not getting hired for My Fair Lady meant she was available for Mary Poppins....
@@jstasiak2262 add: after (previous year's winner) Patricia Neal got sick on Oscar night, the Academy asked Audrey to present Best Actor 'cuz they want a Heavy Hitter for the major prizes - Audrey did it and presented Best Actor to Rex Harrison! 😱 Think About That! when watching this video and Audrey says she doesn't carry bitterness - it's believable and UNBELIEVABLE at the same time! Reference: Leo DiCaprio did not attend Oscar night the year "Titanic" was up for awards and Leo was not.
At a Time when Curves were the Fashion, Audrey represented another side of Beauty in Hollywood! Such a indelible Legacy, She's one of the most extraordinary & important actors to grace the Silver screen & her generosity to Humanity was boundless! RIP Audrey Hepburn your Brilliant
People these days are very dysregulated and they speak extremely fast because they have no presence. Watch the way American reality Tv stars and starlets all speak. It’s really cheap and off-putting. Audrey comes from a time where people weren’t always trying to crack jokes and act superior. She was a wonderful symbol for humility, class, dignity and being ladylike. Women these days should and could all take a masterclass from Miss Hepburn.
@@r-leanmygirl-gj2kt I agree. She was a very good actor and a wonderful humanitarian, but she was apparently a difficult guest to interview for a late night talk show.
In spite of her apparent shyness and reluctance in the limelight I get the sense she disarmed many out in the studio audience and across the airwaves- she certainly did it to me. Rest In Peace sweet angel
Thanks for posting. This is definitely one of the more awkward interviews. Poor Johnny tried so hard to put her at ease - wasn’t happening. It was still interesting to watch. Thanks
Ms Hepburn has to be the first person I have ever seen on Johnny's show that once Johnny started digging a hole, he was to never get out of it. But then, we also love Johnny too so this show was just that good. :) Thank you for posting this.
Some facial expressions, her head turning away when Carson speaks about her husband, her whole body language speaks volumes, you can clearly see her thinking, have I made a mistake coming here?
One of a kind , they don’t make stars like this anymore. She is so statuesque and delightful, she brought a tear to my eye. So genuine and gentle & shy. Delightful to see this - thx 4 posting!
After a very privileged childhood, her mother made the mistake of moving them back to Holland in 1939. After 5 years of Nazi occupation, a teenage Audrey barely survived malnutrition in 1945. It was the WWII experiences that inspired her years of work for UNICEF.
@@l.a.3479 Yes, her mother was a Baroness and maternal grandparents were both from the nobility of the Netherlands. Sadly, that did not protect them from the Nazis.
Oh my…I can still feel her elegance radiating in the silence space in between the talk. Her private and softness still exudes a mystery and it can make someone feel squirmy but all the while very intriguing. I’m really enjoying this interview. Never seen Audrey like this but gives her more of this human aspect than what media portrays. I can see that she is anxious here but still very beautiful with how she carries herself. Carson did a wonderful job to ask questions though it can hit the trigger spot but he adds comedic timing to change topics. Gives more sense of how Audrey Hepburn is really like too and how she carries herself. She’s polite and strong willed.
She was the most amazing loving wonderful human being who would go where she was needed picking up starving babies and humanitarian is just not big enough to describe this beautiful lady. And thank you for bringing us Johnny Carson. He was what late night talk shows ARE REALLY SUPPOSED TO BE.
Johnny tried nobly here. She deflected questions that could've helped. Her awkwardness was difficult to overcome. He tried to put her at ease. True genius, Johnny
Well, he tried to get her to agree with kind of negative things (Don't you find people in Hollywood more bitter?) and she just wasn't that way. I think he could have done a bit better, but he was nervous. I thought she was all right.
@@stephaniedegange2737As a Generation X woman, I would find it difficult to respond to his objectifying comment/question regarding if she was a "sex symbol."
@@stephaniedegange2737Many of his questions were invasive. About her life with her husband being a psychiatrist. And him being kidnapped! So many other topics he could’ve brought up.
@@SkyNetGeneral- What are you disagreeing with? I never said this was or wasn't the case, just that he was trying to get her to say negative things and she wouldn't. Who is the "he" who sensed it?
I don’t know how to describe how excited I am that this has FINALLY been uploaded to the public!

A little story some will find interesting. Ms Hepburn was in the early 1990s the UN Ambassador for Refugees. As such, she visited Kenya during the Somali refugee crisis. She met with American servicemen in Mombasa Kenya before flying into Mogadishu, the epicenter of the crisis. That was before I got there. I was told she made such an impression on the troops that when she passed many of them became visibly upset upon hearing the news. Imagine a bunch of strong men weeping over the loss of a person none knew. That was the impression she made on people.
I was deployed on US Navy ship off the coast of Mogadishu in the early/mid 90's supporting a relocation operation. Also made a port call in Mombasa. Had no idea Audry Hepburn had visited that area.
So nice to see an interview with her as there’s so few. She really was an angel & a unique, even complicated soul, it shows in her voice, demeanour & smile.
@@January. Are you the TH-cam moderator? You keep correcting other posts as if you are grading high school homework. I think you need to focus on your own shortcomings, not a few, minor misspellings or grammatical errors.
Who would have thought that Ed was the cool one. LOL Poor Johnny; I know exactly how he feels. I've always been completely in love with Audrey Hepburn. TeeHee
there is no world actress who has such an effect on me, I can't know why her charisma, her humbleness, her beauty, but what I know is that she is unforgettable, forever.
The aurra of movie star surrounds her in comparison to many ive seen on the show, even if she is nervous. She is certainly an adorable lady. She has a lot of class.
I have never seen this! Johnny and Audrey were so completely charming with each other. Like two little kids with crushes. The bashful chemistry and awkwardness brought out the best in Ed and gave an edge to Johnny's humor, lol

She met with American servicemen in Mombasa Kenya before flying into Mogadishu, the epicenter of the crisis. That was before I got there. I was told she made such an impression on the troops that when she passed many of them became visibly upset upon hearing the news. Imagine a bunch of strong men weeping over the loss of a person none knew. That was the impression she made on people.
Her body language was uncomfortable
I was deployed on US Navy ship off the coast of Mogadishu in the early/mid 90's supporting a relocation operation. Also made a port call in Mombasa. Had no idea Audry Hepburn had visited that area.
Thank you for sharing this!

I've been wanting to see this interview all my life! Thank you so much! We miss you dearly, my heavenly Audrey! 💕
Well, now you can check out. lol
Real treat indeed. Thank you so much
❤ honestly, I’m astounded watching this show right now for the very first time: Ms Hepburn is astounding to me- ❤
I love to watch the very few clips of her dancing. Seeing her en pointe is a delight.
Audrey is so adorable and very well mannered. I’ve love her since high school and I’m hoping she is resting comfortably in Heaven. 🙏😘🥰
FINALLY!!! I could never find this anywhere!! Thank u!!! ❤❤❤
Amazing! Johnny Carson, Audrey Hepburn and Hank Kingsley all together!
So nice to see an interview with her as there’s so few. She really was an angel & a unique, even complicated soul, it shows in her voice, demeanour & smile.
A timeless beauty and great actress
LOL the long grey strand atop his head!
Thank you for posting
Its sad as she had a short life. She was a gifted and pleasantly human being.
She was a heavy smoker, I heard.
*pleasant
@@January. Are you the TH-cam moderator? You keep correcting other posts as if you are grading high school homework. I think you need to focus on your own shortcomings, not a few, minor misspellings or grammatical errors.
@@lottasunshine1325 I don't need your advice.

TPTB,
More of this, please.
Thank you so much
Beautiful, talented, kind, gentle, caring, graceful. Love her. ♥️
What a class act Miss Hepburn was. She didn’t seem like the easiest person to interview though.
No, it was like pulling teeth. She was the nervous one, poor thing. I love her though.
She kept disagreeing w him. Totally awkward
Who would have thought that Ed was the cool one. LOL
Poor Johnny; I know exactly how he feels. I've always been completely in love with Audrey Hepburn. TeeHee
She was so very eloquent, classy. A true movie star..
Her and George peppard were fantastic in breakfast at Tiffany's. She was a sweet little lady. r.i.p to them both 🙏
SHE and George Peppard ...
there is no world actress who has such an effect on me, I can't know why her charisma, her humbleness, her beauty, but what I know is that she is unforgettable, forever.
"I know he got clobbered" why Johnny, WHY? LOL
Exactly. How awful of him to say this or even bring it up at all. So rude.
I melt when i hear her sing Moon River ❤
Audrey didn’t want to be there, though she was, as always, gracious. Sincerely, Captain Obvious
No she could and should have worked harder to make a better appearance. Awkward and unprofessional.
She tried a little harder for the far more odious Barbara Walters when she was plugging her book on gardens.
@@TombCatWas she in front of a live studio audience with Miss Walters. And that interview was edited.
@@brookehanley3659Audrey had terrible anxiety if you read up on her you would know it was one of her worst traits that she thought she had
Audrey is the epitome of beauty and class..e
it's "epitome" and not "epitomy"
@@szvqorwnpstahskypfwmp9821 that's what I sed
@@szvqorwnpstahskypfwmp9821 was I rong...do you agre she wus
The aurra of movie star surrounds her in comparison to many ive seen on the show, even if she is nervous. She is certainly an adorable lady. She has a lot of class.

I'm 66 yo and grew up with all these people. I'm stunned with what the hell they did with Mr. Carsons hair among other things .
She was charming, classy, and looked very intelligent.
All of the above attributes were totally correct.
Carson was A One Of Kind on TV Talk Shows then.
I have never seen this! Johnny and Audrey were so completely charming with each other. Like two little kids with crushes. The bashful chemistry and awkwardness brought out the best in Ed and gave an edge to Johnny's humor, lol
This is a travel to a very nostalgic past. Audrey was a unique actress.
