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.

So many good choices: I say it's a tie between Charade, Roman Holiday, and My Fair Lady.

Breakfast at Tiffany's

Charade.

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.

My top 3 are probably Charade, Roman Holiday, or the winner today, Breakfast at Tiffany's.

Breakfast at Tiffany's

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.

Breakfast at Tiffany's got my vote.

The Nun's Story

breakfast at tiffanys

Without a doubt My Fair lady.

Sabrina for me, although I haven't seen Charade. Can't wait for new Criterion to arrive this week.

It has to be "War and Peace" ex-aequo with "The Nun's Story". The others are just mild diversions.

The Nun's Story

. . . . . .

but that wasn't even her singing voice.

Roman Holiday

Although I liked Wait Until Dark better as a film, I think Roman Holiday is a better "Audrey Hepburn Movie"

The category is "Best Film starring Audrey Hepburn," not "Best Audrey Hepburn singing." The film is wonderful and Audrey's performance is too, including flawless lipsyncing.

'nuff said

I gotta go with Sabrina as well.
