WHAT IF ...?

WHAT IF ...? I confess that I am a big fan of Audrey Hepburn. I don’t know why – she was not the best actress or the most beautiful woman in her heyday in the 1950s and 1960s. I can only explain it in terms of a teenage crush that has never gone away.  Orson Welles described Audrey Hepburn as "the patron saint of the anorexics", while Cecil Beaton called her hair fringe "rat-nibbled". Audrey Hepburn’s most remembered role is that of Holly Golightly in the 1961 film, Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Marilyn Monroe was considered for the role. Truman Capote, the author of the 1958 novella, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, was upset that his friend, Marilyn Monroe, did not get the role. He remarked: "Marilyn Monroe wanted the part so badly that she worked up two whole scenes all by herself to play for me. She was terrifically good. Then Paramount double-crossed me and cast Audrey." Instead Blake Edwards, the film’s director, casted Audrey Hepburn for the part of Holly Golightly. Later, she felt she was miscast in the role! What if Marilyn Monroe, not Audrey Hepburn, was cast as Holly Golightly, what would have happened? Would Marilyn Monroe have made a better Holly Golightly than Audrey Hepburn? Audrey Hepburn was quirky, svelte and brunette with brown eyes. Marilyn Monroe was sultry, voluptuous and blonde with blue eyes, though Norma Jeane Mortenson’s natural hair colour was reddish-brown. Marilyn Monroe never won an Oscar award, and was never nominated for the award. Audrey Hepburn won an Oscar award for the 1963 film, Roman Holiday. Roman Holiday was John F Kennedy’s favourite film of all time and Audrey Hepburn was his favourite actress. Most people remember that Marilyn Monroe sang Happy Birthday at President Kennedy’s birthday in 1962, but Audrey Hepburn sang the song at the President’s last final birthday in 1963. Both were unlucky in love, but many of us are! Marilyn Monroe did naked; Audrey Hepburn did not do naked, or did she?!! Who is your favourite actor or actress? Who were your teenage crushes? |
