Product: The Audrey Hepburn Story [VHS] (2000)
Rating: 1.0
A legendary actress is portrayed poorly
Though Jennifer Love Hewitt delivers great performances (or not)in Teen flicks, she must be bold to try to accomplish such a role in an Audrey Hepburn biopic. I've watched all of Audrey Hepburn's films as well as researched many of her biographies, and believe Jennifer Love Hewitt did a poor job in portraying the hollywood legend. The movie wasn't grounded, it didn't have a good feel to it, they didn't contribute a lot of the things that was most important to Audrey...except to show the rise of fame. The other actors portraying other characters in the hollywood era looked nothing like the characters themselves-including Jennifer Love Hewitt portraying Audrey Hepburn. Jennifer Love Hewitt's look is of no resemblance to the beautiful Audrey Hepburn. If not for the hair from the Breakfast at Tiffany's set-they might as well have had Whoopi Goldberg portraying Audrey Hepburn. I was VERY disappointed in spending $ on this film. Not worth owning. To satisfy the curiosity of movie goers, worth a view for half the movie-I'd bunk the rest. In my opinion, it was a ludricous portrayal of the beautiful, classic legend. To what honor shall Jennifer Love Hewitt have portraying the legend? An unknown actress would have suited more than she. She's too bubbly-and her own usual character shows through too much to make her Audrey Hepburn impersonation fall through. She brings in too much of her "own" look and smile to Audrey's, the classic smile she poses for every one of her films. Not genuine. Not believable AT ALL.
