My respects for the everything of Audrey Hepburn - including that, of course. I wonder how I would deal with that & I think not all interviewers are Michael Parkinson or Roy Plomley.
Not entirely rude, it seemed like he's used to interviewing serious news or politicians ... who knows? But he allowed her to continue talking when she held her ground and said what she wanted to say, plus he gave her that compliment about having a great deal of talent when she was being humble about it.
You can tell by her agitated motions she got a little upset . So much class though. She handled herself brilliantlly. What a rude overpowering interviewer. Awful. Should have been fired that very night.
imagine being known as the guy who tried to talk over and interrupt Audrey Hepburn. i love how many times she simply bulldozed on ahead, finishing her thoughts and ignoring his questions until she was completely done.
She handled herself very well especially when asked to decide between Europe and America, or when asked if she thought other actors just do films for the money. She was asked to kindle fires for ratings and gossip sake and instead she put them out without being rude to the interviewer who tried to be condescending but found out that Audrey Hepburn would not be put down.
Oh, how I understand you.. just now I noticed that this video with Audrey’s interview is 16 years old, and your comment is 14. Where are you now, and whether you exist at all, I don’t know. Maybe the same amount of time will pass, and someone after us will find and listen to an ancient artifact. A beautiful and long-lost antiquity. This is it, the voice of time. Greetings from Belarus) 🧭
Handled with such grace, elegance and class. Even though the interviewer may have been interrupting she continued to speak and hold her presence with great sophistication. This is why I choose to look at Audrey Hepburn as one of those whom I admire and look up to so much
I think she is so straight forward and wants to tell this reporter everything without hiding anything. This is one of the qualities that made her such an icon. I also think she was a very sincere woman and told things like they were. I agree,she is my inspiration.
Anonyme User Ive seen you comment on Marilyn a few times now. What did she EVER do to you to make such insensitive comments about a woman you never knew? And why does her name need to be brought up in an Audrey Hepburn video. There's clearly an obsession you have with her.
Such grace from Audrey in the face of such an overbearing interviewer. Such integrity also, both in the way she dealt with him and her approach to her career too. A star without vanity. Respect.
Wow. Strong, thoughtful woman. He was too agressive with her, but you can see she fought back a few times and didn't let him talk over her, but she did it in a very classy way! Devoted much of her life to charity, too. Many modern-day narcissistic movie stars and musicians should take a lesson from her! Class A all the way!!!!!!
What a rude pig this interviewer was! Interrupting continually, it showed how gracious Audrey Hepburn was and how much of an arse he was! Christopher Australia
My father said he always in love with Audrey Hepburn when he was younger and said the moment he saw my mother he knew he was going to marry her because he thought she looked exactly like Audrey Hepburn, looking at photos of my mother when she was younger, and wow, she really did look A LOT like Audrey Hepburn back then. These I find Audrey Hepburn a very admirable character, too bad many of my generation can't appreciate her. She was a rather wonderful person yet not full of herself.
She didn’t need any help. No matter how many times he tried to have her say something negative, not for a moment did he succeed. She was dignified and true to herself with charm, grace, charisma. I could watch and listen to her again and again because she is blessed with such wisdom it makes me feel warm and fuzzy as if those pearls are coming out of my mouth. 🙏
I always thought she was an american born actress. You could hardly detect any european in her accent. Her English sounded very american in the early years. Yet in interviews in later years there's a distinct french accent in her English. Sorry, I don't know much about Audrey Hepburn but I thought that was strange.
I agree, but her poise and sense of who she was enabled her to answer the reporter's intrusive questions in the most tactful and charming way. That is so difficult and so rare then, and maybe even more so now..
@@vancouvermacbookrepair3967 I wouldn't say she had a French accent...definitely British but not quite completely. She lived in the Netherlands for some time so maybe that's why her accent doesnt quite sound completely British.
The interviewer kept interrupting and not letting her finish , but she handled herself well , just to get this off my chest , her voice and eyes and way of words grasp my heart , shame I was born in 1999 and yet the past women had more self respect and elegance , now this generation does not know the meaning of loyalty and knowledge . Knowledge : knowing what to say . I mean
***** I think it's a bit of an international accent. A lot of people who've lived in multiple countries growing up, attending mixed private schools and speak many languages, develop that similar kind of accent. I know this since I've grown up around the world and attended international private schools, I find that kind of English/American posh but oddly mixed accent to be common among the crowd. Audrey was well traveled and lived around all over the place too, she spoke 6 languages.
DeadButBreathing I believe she spoke 4 languages. She also spoke a little German. I don't know what the 5th much less what the 6th language would be. Certainly not Spanish. I saw the video where they allegedly claim she "SPOKE" Spanish. That's not Spanish. It's someone who has a dim basic understanding of Spanish and chooses marry it to the closest langauge they know. She spoke Spanish but used a lot of Italian words. And I also believe English was ultimately her native language. She doesn't sound American to me at all.
+Frank Paul Lomas, she was half Irish-British from her father's side, and half Dutch from her mother's side. This explains the very slight Dutch accent in her pronunciation of words when she speaks English, but of course, British English. She spoke English, Dutch, Italian, and French fluently. It is rumored that she spoke Spanish fluently. In the last few years of her life, she became a UNICEF ambassador and travelled to many African and South American countries. Therefore, it is not unreasonable to think that she taught herself other foreign languages such as Portuguese or Spanish, to establish at least a foundation for basic conversation with locals in the affected countries. I hope this response helps ! :)
SHE was the real woman. She was and always will be a teacher of heart, class, elegance and dignity to all those fake divas out there. Especially nowdays, where most women need a real idol to wake up and realise what a real woman should be. I love you Audrey and i miss you.
Audrey was the epitome of elegance, grace, and beauty . She handled herself with class and dignity in this interview and in her life. Too bad some of the comments here are missing that class.
She has this innate strength and conviction to her words, totally comfortable in her skin yet graceful and delicate. There's Audrey Hepburns out there in the world even today. We have to take honest stock of ourselves and be the men worth those women making themselves apparent to.
What a bright, perceptive, kind and balanced person. He is asking blunt questions that invite her to slag the working conditions in Europe, other actors etc and she's able to answer the questions in a kind and fair manner. Very impressive.
she really is. She was such an elegant, decent and kind person, she spent the last years of her life helping the unicef and visiting poor children in africa and those kind of stuff, plus she never studied anything related to acting and she was such a great actress...sheactually wanted to be a dancer. She was natural and sophisticated...
Kinda creepy how the camera looks her up and down at the end. I'm sure they were just trying to show her outfit but it reads like more of a leering gaze, doesn't it?
I noticed that too... Back then, women we openly objectified, so I think the panning shot was for the audience "check her out" ... Although, she was famous for her fashion sense, so could it be to check her dress?... Do note, the cameras back then didn't have adjustable zoom on the lenses...
I loved watching Audrey being her eternally gracious and lovely self, I did not appreciate the nature of the interviewer, leave a girl alone when she is such a gracious person
"...IT'S VERY HARD TO SAY, I JUST LIKE IT"!!! ...lol when she says it's very hard to say, one imagines a long explanation for what she was talking about, but when she explains it with a simple "I just like it"!!! so it wasn't too hard to explain! lol...
You can google to find a lot of books on her, but one that I would LOVE to have is The Audrey Hepburn Treasures book as it has really beautiful photos, actual letters written by her (well copies), just tons of reproductions of personal things from her, by her etc. It is a difficult book to describe, but it is just lovely. It is a little expensive so watch for it on sale, on ebay, Amazon or whereever it truly is a beautiful book.
Yes, we all know Audrey was one of kind. Something special... it was not her beauty, her face or her body... There was always just something special about her. Not a skill one can learn or buy. Like Margot Fonteyn, she just had something where you couldn't force yourself to look away. She may have very well been good enough to go prima ballerina had she not been deprive nourishment. Damn that war... Hepburn, a goddess among mortals. --Dance, magic, dance, Dane Youssef
I think she looks annoyed to the interviewer at some point, but as classy and adorable as she has always been, she manages to keep it together so gracefully!She is the essence of what a real woman should be...
Right! She's so graceful and humble, has good breeding despite of that annoying interviewer.. The more that I admire her. Not only a great actress but a gentle lady worth emulating. She has always been a great favorite of mine.
I loved her in breakfast at tiffany's! she was so amazing and talented! i first heard about her fro my mom when she bought the movie, once i watched the movie i couldn't stop! she was such an angel, with very good taste in fashion!
i have a poster of audrey hepburn hung up in my room and whenever i am sad i look at it and i just suddenly get happy. i was very sad one week and breakfast at tiffany's was keeping me from crying and i watched the movie like 5 or 6 times a day lol
*i always burst into laughter when they say marilyn was actually intelligent but only misunderstood. Like look at THIS fine lady!! she was fluently speaking like 3 languages, instead of marilyn who probably didn't even know what "bonjour" meant and who got a job in hollywood after several one-night-stands with grumpy old directors*
You don't interrupt Ms. Audrey Hepburn. Ever. Whoever you are.
HeatherHanderson you are so right. He is such a fool.
@Blue Storm her rambling was lovely
Fucker kept doing it too
He’s so annoying
Yes...this guy is very disrespectful!
When you interrupt Audrey Hepburn, you are interrupting goodness and kindness and all the other beautiful things in this world.
She doesn’t stop talking when the man tries to interrupt her, then he realizes he should shut up and let her finish.
What a confident and poised woman
What a impudent interrogator!!!!! He sounds like an ex cop.!!! He should change professions.
What a rude man. She dealt with that really brilliantly though, she's such a beauty!
My respects for the everything of Audrey Hepburn - including that, of course. I wonder how I would deal with that & I think not all interviewers are Michael Parkinson or Roy Plomley.
The interviewer was rude, but she handled his interview so gracefully. I miss her so much :(
Oh me too. She was breathtaking.
How was he rude? I don't get all the bashing. Because he didn't kneel and kiss her feet? The celerity worship here is embarrassing to watch.
@@lepetitchat123 He interrupts constantly. Any interviewer worth their salt knows not to.
@@RobinHood-cd9mh❤❤❤
Interviewer was rude. He cut her off a number of times, but Audrey remained a class act.

That was a nice interview.

this woman was truly wonderful !! everything about her was beautiful
I like how she doesn't use a fake soft voice.
exactly.
excuse me? ^
you mean like Michael Jackson?
Anonyme User Ive seen you comment on Marilyn a few times now. What did she EVER do to you to make such insensitive comments about a woman you never knew? And why does her name need to be brought up in an Audrey Hepburn video. There's clearly an obsession you have with her.
I think a lot of that comes from people who copied Marilyn, even though that was literally just her natural voice
I could listen to her talk about paint drying . She's an absolute professional, and so generous answering these questions. Love her.
Such grace from Audrey in the face of such an overbearing interviewer. Such integrity also, both in the way she dealt with him and her approach to her career too. A star without vanity. Respect.
She exudes such charm and class. A true role model. I just love her!
aw..her accent, smile...
She is so gracious.
That guy kept interrupting her.
But she's no pushover too.
I adore her.
interviewer seems aggressive but she skilfully avoids his conflicting questions with graceful answers.

Knowledge : knowing what to say . I mean
In my mind, Audrey Hepburn is the definition of "Classy Beauty." It's just something about her.
I finally found a video of Audrey speaking. My wife sounds just like young Audrey. Talks just like her. Her accent is amazing.
I seriously can't place her accent. It sounds something like very preppy posh British English. That's my guess.
Care to enlighten me?

The English claimed her, the Irish claimed her, the Dutch and the Belgians claimed her. But they were all wrong. She was from Venus. Hence the accent.
i could listen and watch her all day, so beautiful
She was an awesome person on screen and her charitable acts!
I adore her😩❤
She is so sweet and so elegant. She will always be the true and absolutely perfect example of elegance and grace.
WORST INTERVIEWER I HAVE SAW IN MY LIFE! THAT WAS SO RUDE OF HIM, CUTTING HER OFF LIKE THAT
unique, beatiful, full with class. The most beautiul woman ever existed
she was amazing, just amazing!
Good angel, good heart... i love her until the end of my days
I love this woman more than I love myself omg ♥️
i love it when he compliments her and she smiles and says "thankyou".
she's so beautiful
Audrey's class comes through so beautiful even when the interviewer was incredibly rude.

She has this innate strength and conviction to her words, totally comfortable in her skin yet graceful and delicate.
There's Audrey Hepburns out there in the world even today. We have to take honest stock of ourselves and be the men worth those women making themselves apparent to.

She's is wow! Stunning, modest, beautiful, classy, intelligent ( fluent in 5 languages).
The guys is an arse.
I'm having a hard time processing that my biggest crush ever is only 2 years younger than my 96 years old grandmother
Throughout the entire interview, all I've seen is a really decent human being,.... courteous and.. a class act....
Simply put... A True Lady. Sadly missed in today's time
That dear woman just oozes genuine sincerity. In my humble opinion, she was the most beguiling female of the 20th century.
Her honesty and humility were always the sexiest thing about her. One of a kind, she.
I adore her, she is a real lady and she is timeless.

Audrey was and will always be the BEST wearer of little black dress.. She owns it! :-)
I would love to see a sweet and innocent person like this go full beast-mode. Just once.
What makes Audrey's accent so special and noticeable in a phonetic way, could anyone answer? In which parts does it go sounding so European?
in her childhood she talked in many languages, English, French, Dutch so I think that's why no one else talks like her
She was born in Belgium & lived between London, Holland & Switzerland I believe and she spoke multiple languages.
It's RP accent. Not the current british RP accent though. This one is the queen's accent.
The way they pronounce the T sounds Indian.
She is English, also very European.
I like her so much !!!
