Roman Holiday was very much along the basic lines of the princess wants a break from her duties and finds someone to help her enjoy it all as chaos ensues. Lovely scenery and eye candy in this one!
My Fair Lady was the classic woman makeover while the woman falls in love with the one making her over. I did enjoy “I Feel Pretty” song and dance as well as others. Some of my tenth grade students came in singing this one the other day!
I may join Netflix in hopes of seeing more-plus buy some on Ebay as they’re cheap for the ones I’m missing!

definitely one I’m thinking of adding to my collection of movies that I want. I just kept thinking as I watched them sing and dance, “why can’t more movies today be like that?” Seems like they’re only musicals and some of those are even horrible just as they are depressing quite often…
Ah, I loved Audrey’s sense of style and classic chic in this movie!

collection of Audrey Hepburn dvds. The world is my oyster! I got the set that has Roman Holiday, Breakfast at Tiffiany’s and Sabrina. I’ve seen all except Roman Holiday, so now I just have to sit down and watch sometime soon. Progress!

1. Breakfast at Tiffiany’s ((one of my all time favorite movies))
2. Two for the Road ((I love Fiennes in this and Hepburn as well, quite a good movie))
3. Sabrina ((ah…this movie falters a bit in my opinion-as I have also seen the Harrison Ford version of Sabrina. I loved it and so Hepburn doesn’t stun me as much in this. I do find her as lovely as ever and enjoy the movie way more then so many other movies!))

dvd of Roman Holiday is mocking me. It keeps seeing me reach for it and get distracted by other movies.
Issues, I think I have many….cackles
Bah, maybe I’ll buy the collection on ebay instead. Kill two birds with one stone as I love Audrey Hepburn….

The first time I saw her, was in Two for the Road with Albert Fiennes. I fell in love with her there. She just helped that movie rock. Then I rented Breakfast at Tiffiany’s and just fell in love all over again. She is amazing, and I wish I could’ve met her. I wished I could’ve had some of her style so many times when I was younger. I plan to rent all other movies that she is in and watch them. Maybe this summer if I can! :D
