Book Synopsis Little Book of Audrey Hepburn in the Movies by : Timothy Knight
Download or read book Little Book of Audrey Hepburn in the Movies written by Timothy Knight and published by G2 Entertainment. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 60 years since Roman Holiday transformed the ex-ballerina into a superstar, Audrey Hepburn has inspired the kind of mass adoration usually reserved for deities. If anything, the cult of Hepburn has grown exponentially since her death in 1993. She is probably Hollywood's most beloved star, revered for her humanitarian work as well has her film career and innate style. By all accounts modest and self-effacing, Hepburn never bought into her own myth. There are no stories of diva-like histrionics or drunken benders in the scores of books, articles and Internet fan sites that exhaustively chronicle her life and career. In the rarefied and pampered world of Hollywood, where every whim is indulged and bad behaviour excused as "artistic temperament," Hepburn was a gracious anomaly. Granted, Hepburn didn't inspire every film critic to wax rhapsodic about her dramatic abilities. In the 1950s, a few critics rashly dismissed her as more of a model than a bona-fide actress. And while Hepburn may not be a screen chameleon like Meryl Streep, or classically trained like Vanessa Redgrave, she is nonetheless an instinctively gifted actress of great delicacy and heartbreaking vulnerability. Above all, she is a star of peerless radiance and irresistible charm that sets her apart from every actress in Hollywood history. Simply put, Hepburn is sui generis: a singular talent whose essence cannot be duplicated, no matter how many actresses try to evoke her. Audrey Hepburn - In The Movies is a celebration of this extraordinary star who occupies a unique place in the hearts and minds of moviegoers worldwide.

Book excerpt: Assembled by Audrey Hepburn's son Luca Dotti, Audrey in Rome is an intimate collection of almost two hundred candid photographs of the beloved actress and much-imitated style icon during the twenty-year period she made Rome her home. A private album of rare snapshots—many never published before—of Audrey Hepburn in her everyday life as a citizen of the Eternal City, Audrey in Rome is a treasure for every fan of her films and her impeccable, timeless style. With an introduction by Dotti that reveals Audrey's private side and three photo-filled chapters organized by decade, the book captures the actress as she strolls around the city alone and with family and friends, walks her Yorkie, Mr. Famous, has breakfast in Piazza Navona, visits the local florist, and more. The book also contains set photographs of the films she made during her Rome years (Roman Holiday, War and Peace, The Nun's Story, Breakfast at Tiffany's) and of the famous clothes and accessories that helped create her iconic look. Irresistible as the actress herself, Audrey in Rome opens the door to Hepburn's personal world.
Download or read book Dutch Girl written by Robert Matzen and published by Paladin Communications. This book was released on 2019-04-15 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-five years after her passing, Audrey Hepburn remains the most beloved of all Hollywood stars, known as much for her role as UNICEF ambassador as for films like Roman Holiday and Breakfast at Tiffany's. Several biographies have chronicled her stardom, but none has covered her intense experiences through five years of Nazi occupation in the Netherlands. According to her son, Luca Dotti, "The war made my mother who she was." Audrey Hepburn's war included participation in the Dutch Resistance, working as a doctor's assistant during the "Bridge Too Far" battle of Arnhem, the brutal execution of her uncle, and the ordeal of the Hunger Winter of 1944. She also had to contend with the fact that her father was a Nazi agent and her mother was pro-Nazi for the first two years of the occupation. But the war years also brought triumphs as Audrey became Arnhem's most famous young ballerina. Audrey's own reminiscences, new interviews with people who knew her in the war, wartime diaries, and research in classified Dutch archives shed light on the riveting, untold story of Audrey Hepburn under fire in World War II. Also included is a section of color and black-and-white photos. Many of these images are from Audrey's personal collection and are published here for the first time.
Download or read book Warrior written by Robert Matzen and published by Paladin Communications. This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "UNICEF thought that with my mother they would get a pretty princess to show up at galas. What they really got was a badass soldier." – Luca Dotti, Audrey Hepburn's son. Warrior: Audrey Hepburn completes the story arc of Robert Matzen's Dutch Girl: Audrey Hepburn and World War II. Hepburn's experiences in wartime, including the murder of family members, her survival through combat and starvation conditions, and work on behalf of the Dutch Resistance, gave her the determination to become a humanitarian for UNICEF and the fearlessness to charge into war-torn countries in the Third World on behalf of children and their mothers in desperate need. She set the standard for celebrity humanitarians and--according to her son Luca Dotti--ultimately gave her life for the causes she espoused.

Book Synopsis Adieu Audrey by : Klaus-Jurgen Sembach
Download or read book Adieu Audrey written by Klaus-Jurgen Sembach and published by Schirmer/Mosel Verlag Gmbh. This book was released on 2004-09 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She was living evidence that fairy tales are real and that angels can come down to earth. It was Colette who discovered the too tall and too thin girl with expressive eyes, then a complete unknown, and made her the lead in the 1951 Broadway production of Gigi. Her film triumphs were all the more astonishing since she didn't match the usual Hollywood clichés. Petite, almost androgynous, and with a disarming naturalness, she had a worldwide impact on fashion and beauty trends and was enthusiastically welcomed as an alternative to the sex bombs and pin-up girls of the 50s. This book, with an essay by Klaus-Jürgen Sembach, is dedicated to Audrey Hepburn who died in 1993. It includes the best film stills, portraits, and private photographs by well-known and by unknown photographers from all over the world who have provided us with an immortal image of Hollywood's most endearing star.

Book Synopsis The Little Book of Zingers by : Pauline Bickford-Duane
Download or read book The Little Book of Zingers written by Pauline Bickford-Duane and published by Cider Mill Press. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You know Mark Twain, creator of the long-beloved characters Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer, but have you heard what he said about Jane Austen? The Little Book of Zingers will feature the greatest comebacks and one-liners of all time, uttered by the iconic men and women we know and love (or love to hate)! Every generation sees its fair share of geniuses: men and women who possess boundless intellect and are capable of incredible insight. Søren Kierkegaard was such a man. Widely considered the father of existential philosophy, Kierkegaard uttered such profundities as: If I am capable of grasping God objectively, I do not believe, but precisely because I cannot do this I must believe. But on one truly momentous occasion, Kierkegaard made one confident and succinct statement that shook the earth: My opponent is a glob of snot. Kierkegaard spoke of Hans Martensen, an academic with whom he'd had a fair share of disagreements. The two often went toe-to-toe in scholarly debate, but with this dynamite zinger, Kierkegaard ended all further discussion. After all, who expects to be called a glob of snot? There's no coming back from that. The Little Book of Zingers will explore the rich depths of crushingly hilarious salt-in-the-wound one-liners you've never heard that'll make you gasp at their audacity. From the Age of Enlightenment to the Roaring Twenties to the boogie-down seventies, The Little Book of Zingers will take readers on a journey through some of history's greatest burns, spoken by the men and women who shaped the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The iconic dress that has stood the test of time. Contemporary yet classic, the little black dress never goes out of style.

Dubbed the 'Ford of fashion' by American Vogue, it was simple, stylish and affordable – 'the frock that all the world will wear'.

'One is never under dressed or over dressed with a little black dress.' Karl Lagerfield 'A little black dress is something to rely on. To fill you with confidence and ease. To have an attitude that is pure and effortless, yet sexy and classy.' Stella McCartney 'The little black dress must be luxurious, rich, sensual, diaphanous, exotic, severe, lush, demure, demanding, frivolous, amusing, and it must linger in memory, but above all, it must be simple and little and black.' Carolina Herrera"
