One of Audrey's Favourite Poems:
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, redeemed: never throw out anyone.

Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others. - Sam Levenson.

Anyone wish to discuss?

Anyone seen any of her films?

butterflygoodbye · 04-16-2007, 09:27 PM

I've seen a couple. I

her. She is my fashion icon.

Is there a supporters list? I would like to be added.

varjak-golightly · 04-17-2007, 10:00 PM

Really, what one's have you seen?

I'll start a supporters list!

butterflygoodbye · 04-17-2007, 10:06 PM

Cool.

Thanks for adding me.

I've seen the typical movies, My Fair Lady, Sabrina, Funny Face, Roman Holiday, Charade, and Breakfast at Tiffany's.

Roman Holiday and Funny Face have to be my favorites though.

varjak-golightly · 04-17-2007, 10:08 PM

Roman Holiday is such a classic, I'm so glad Gregory Peck pushed for her to have her name alongside his in the credits.

butterflygoodbye · 04-17-2007, 10:13 PM

Me too. Gregory Peck is so cool. I

her with him and with Cary Grant in Charade.

I'm suprised more people haven't posted on this thread. I

Audrey!

I know, I started it over a week ago and was a little disappointed that it got no posts! Though I suppose FanForum is mostly used for more contemporary actors/actress discussions.

But Audrey is so back in pop-culture --- the Gap ads with the skinny black pants for example and the B@T dress recently sold at auction!

butterflygoodbye, do you have any favourite images or quotes that you think would be fitting for the first post?

butterflygoodbye · 04-17-2007, 11:20 PM

Awesome. I've seen the GAP commercials. Audrey is awesome.

I do have an Audrey quote it's pretty long but i'm willing to give it to you. Do you want me to PM it to you?

I want to post some icons if you don't mind.

I'm Christina by the way but you can call me Stina.

My goodness they [and she] are beautiful. I love how she transcended decades - the Roman Holiday/Sabrina 50's, the Breakfast at Tiffany's 60's, and how she only did a few films later in her life and still was [and still is today] an icon.

EDIT - Pardon the icon pun, I didn't mean it
