She's my favorite actress. This one's difficult to choose. Very difficult. I can't decide between Roman Holiday, Breakfast at Tiffany's, and Charade......... aaaarrrghhhhh! I think she's most beautiful in Charade, most charming in Breakfast, and was all-round great in Roman Holiday. Today, it's Roman Holiday.

Sabrina, if only because it's great to watch Bogie and William Holden make fools of themselves over her. Not that I can blame them for a second.

I went with Tiffany's. She is just so charming in that role.
I also love My Fair Lady, but deducted points because she was dubbed. The DVD has a couple of songs using her recordings, and while she doesn't have the talent Marni Nixon, there is a certain spirit present that is not in the dubbed version. Rex Harrison and Stanley Holloway were also excellent as Henry Higgins and Mr. Doolittle.
I haven't seen Charade, but I just added it to my Netflix queue.

This is an excellent thread because I have been getting into Audrey Hepburn and her movies recently, actually two months ago or so I hadn't seen any of her films, but I'm so happy that I have.
She has become one of my favorite actresses from that era she is so beautiful and talented.
I went with My Fair Lady even at nearly 3 hours it flew by both times I've seen it, wonderful performances and the lyrics of songs are very entertaining it's one of my favorite musicals.
I also love Roman Holiday, it is still a very funny and charming film today and Audrey is enchanting. Breakfast with Tiffany's has grown on me quite a bit since I first saw which I liked but did not love, but catching many times on cable recently I beginning to love it, I really love the ending in the rain it just perfect.
