This women was the epitome of elegance , grace , beauty , class ...my gosh just look at her , speaking french and looking so gorgeous all together
+Akira Flemming yes my mom raised me to be a lady and not trashy like a lot of these women today its sad she is my idol i love audrey hepburn
Didn’t she have an affair?
yes, and you can also see how compassionate of a woman she was.
Kats no
SunshineWeather Yes she did. Classy my ass. Hypocritical how all these women are so willing to put other women down, calling them “trashy” when their idol was a whore.
dear lord, is there anything more perfect than Audrey speaking french
Audrey speaking.
***** Audrey smiling.
agreed
Audrey speaking Dutch
Yes, Audrey Hepburn speaking flemish. czcams.com/video/mvR6CzxV1Rw/video.html
As a french person myself i can absolutely confirm that her french is pure perfection. Her accent is very very subtle and it amazes me how talented this absolute legend of a Queen was. My dear god..
Saint Walpurgis. would you please be able to translate the first secrion of what she says until the interviewer speaks again?

This is the full interview, starting from when Audrey starts talking, translated from French into English
Audrey: "Naturally, this evening, the marvelous gala said we'd have it for our great film and for the Red Cross."
Interviewer: "Permit me to say your French is really good." (The way he says is more like "let me just say..."
Audrey: "That's very nice, thank you" (In French, saying that's very nice to a compliment shows respect and humility)
Interviewer: "Do you think it's because you were born in Brussels?" (French speaking place in Belgium)
Audrey: " I hope that's the reason, yes"
Interviewer: "Tell us, did you start in theatre before doing cinema?"
Audrey: "Yes, in the beginning. I started as a ballet dancer. I studied ballet a few years. I danced in Ireland and then one day, I got the chance to do two, three days in the studio for a film, then after that four, five days and then it's a small role and then a role that's more big and then suddenly, in '52, I tried out for 'Roman Holiday' by William Wyler [I can't hear what she says, unfortunately] as you know. And at the same time, the same year, I played 'Gigi' on Broadway in New York."
Saya Beast tyvm for taking the time to do that
Wtf does her accent have to do with how good she is at speaking the language
@@hueyfreeman1983 Because the her accent (Which seems to be a mix of British, Old American and Belgian) would make her sound less French, or more precisely Parisian. What the original commenter is saying is that her accent is not very noticeable which makes her sound more French.
Wow, hearing Audrey speak in French is like listening to a beautiful Mozart symphony. This woman doesn't cease to amaze me.
Her Dutch has also a very dignified sound to it.
check stavroz-moser
I agree!
🙏
I don't even know what she's saying but it's beautiful
The most perfectly shaped face. She was such a beauty.
Marince Vacth, Monica Bellucci, Liv Tyler. Should I go on?
@@NCSheriff7 go on you can name 1 million women with uglier faces
Yes. I totally agree
Indeed
@@NCSheriff7 unnecessary. shut up.
She was from a different league.
No doubt about it.
Rare Audrey Hepburn The only thing I don't like from the video runs from 0:23 to 0:27. Please, edit it and put me in instead.
Jorge Ponce Haha, I'm afraid I don't have the talents for that.
On God!!!
Audrey is so beautiful. The most perfect smile ever.
Indeed
Ms Hepburn can speak 6 languages. She's graceful, ekegant and intelligent. What a wonderful lady❤
I akways think french language sounded good to the ear eventhough I don't speak the language but Audrey Hepburn speaking french in that voice. ..o la la!
True
is it possible to be elegant, beautiful, classy and lovely more than Audrey?! I surely doubt it, from the bottom of my heart!
rest in peace the one and only Princess of the silver screen!
She was a heavy smoker though . I know I can’t stand being around her lol
@@lepetitchat123 everyone smoking in those days lol
@@annkow9154 yeah pretty disgusting.
Her voice and smile alone is more attractive than any woman alive today
Stop putting women against each other
Most women nowadays don't even have half of her beauty
@@kishiakaik6513 Not a competition just a fact. If you said ryan gosling was more attractive than me you'd just be stating a fact and I wouldn't be offended cus he is.
@@Getvagazzled Ryan gosling looks like a fish, but okay
@@Getvagazzled It’s not a “fact” just your opinion.
Audrey really was in a whole other league. Like...I can't put my finger on it, but there's just something about the way she carries herself that makes you go, "Whoa" and "Wow" at the same time. Even the way she was preparing her tea was mesmerizing.
She looks like a normal person - until she smiles - suddenly she looks like a world famous angel
she’s so amazing we didn’t deserve her. her voice and smile is everything
Journalist: Its the heroin of « Roman Holiday », « Sabrina », « Funny Face » « War and Peace » and recently now « The Nun's Story ». Its Audrey Hepbun, its Mms Ferrer, and to see her to occupy alone, we ask us what she can think right now.
Audrey Hepburn: Of course to that evening, wonderful gala evening, we honored for our movie and for the Red Cross.
Journalist: Let me tell you Audrey Hepburn, you speak French very well.
Audrey Hepburn: That's so sweet, thank you.
Journalist: it is because you was born at Bruxelles ?
Audrey Hepburn: I hope that is the reason, yes.
Journalist: Tell us, have you been by the theater before the cinema ?
Audrey Hepburn: Yes, i started my career as a ballet dancer, i studied the ballet for years. I danced at London and someday, i was lucky enough to do two-three days in studio for a movie, and after that four-five days. And after that a small rôle, and after that a bigger rôle. And suddenly, in 1952, i got a tryout for « Roman Holiday » for William Wyler the director that you know. At the same time, the same year, i played Gigi at Broadway, at New York
Ist Klasse
I'm only seeing this now!! Thank you for the translation. I will add the translations ASAP. Again, thank you. Xo
G. Dos thank you so much
Thank you for the translation. 💕💕💕💕
I couldn't understand a word she said...who cares...I'll always be in love with her! :)
She's explaining how she made the transition from ballet to theatre and her casting in Roman Holiday.
Audrey is the epitome of adorable ! Such elegance and class!! Love her!!
Elle est magnifique
Ça change des poufiasses de télé-réalité toute silliconées

Journalist: C'est l'héroïne de "Vacances Romaines" de "Sabrina" de "Drôle de Frimousse", de "Guerre et Paix" et tout récemment maintenant, de "Au risque de se perdre". C'est Audrey Hepburn, c'est Madame Ferrer, et à la voir s'occuper ainsi toute seule, nous nous demandons à quoi elle peut bien songer en ce moment.
Audrey Hepburn: Naturellement à ce soir, merveilleux gala qu'on honorait ce soir pour notre film et pour la Croix Rouge.
Journalist: Permettez moi de vous dire Audrey Hepburn que vous parlez très bien Français.
Audrey Hepburn: C'est trop gentil merci.
Journalist: Est ce que c'est parce que vous êtes né à Bruxelles?
Audrey Hepburn: J'espère que c'est la raison, oui.
Journalist: Dites nous, êtes-vous passé;s par le théâtre avant le cinéma?
Audrey Hepburn: Oui, au fond, oui, j'ai commencé ma carrière comme danseuse de ballet, j'ai étudié le ballet pendant des années. J'ai dansé à Londres et un jour, j'ai eu la chance de faire deux trois jours au studio dans un film, et après ça, quatre, cinq jours, et après ça un petit rôle, après ça un rôle plus grand, et tout d"un coup, en 1952, j'ai fais un essai pour "Vacances Romaines"; pour William Wyler le metteur en scène comme vous le connaissez. Et en même temps, la même année, j'ai joué Gigi à Broadway, à New York.
Lilit Muradyan raffaello89
You're welcome.
@@romainramage9349 bien vrai
Wow, Audrey is soo beautiful !!!
This is one time that I'm thankful that I'm fluent in French :D
I'm not French, but I love to listen to people talking in French because it feels so chill and poetic that I could be listening to it for hours, and I totally can't alert a difference between her accent and a native French accent.
How sweet and powerful she sounds, oh my.. :)
I'm not French but French's my first language, and I can see a subtle difference in her accent: enough that if I didn't know her, I'd wonder what's her first language, but not enough to be able to know where her accent would be coming from. It's very small and only on a few words, and honestly she sounds like someone who's lived in France for decades.
Merci beaucoup :) Le Français est d'autant plus une jolie langue quand elle est parlée par une si belle personne et avec tant d'élégance!
Prince Philip was also fluent in French - On a TV interview in France he said that in his family they spoke French , it was their first language - It is mine also so maybe I wrote English with a few mistakes
Elle est belle
+Isa Collins elle parle tres bien aussi, non? c'est tres attrayant !
+Zahraa Shams Oui elle parle très bien français et son accent est adorable :3
I like how she's preparing her tea in the beginning in a very poised and classy way.
Very few women with the beauty, intelligence and grace of Audrey Hepburn have existed in this world.
She speaks fluent French with virtually no accent. She was so well educated and classy. And of course beautiful ❤️. A worthy icon for so many reasons. I wish she was here still.
she is simply divine
Truly, she was in a class by herself. Elegant, beautiful, brilliant. The way that she could convey emotion through her face, posture, movement, and voice.
Audrey was the complete package, truly a beautiful woman. They don't make them like that anymore. RIP, Ms. Hepburn, and a sincere THANKS for all those golden memories!!
One of the most beautiful and talented actress of all time!!!!
I love her!
Audrey was such an ethereal being.
I don't understand a thing of what she is saying, but she looks so beautiful.
Do you want I try to translate it ? My english isn't really good but I try 😊
Pip's & Co can u
Presentateur : she is the star from "Roman Holidays". ( he named movies but I don't know them ). She is Miss Ferer ( not sure about it ) and to see her like this, keep herdelf busy alone, we can wondering of what she is thinking about.
Audrey : of course about tonight. They said we will have a beautiful evening/party for our movie tonight, and for the "Croix Rouge".
P : allow me to say that you are speaking french really good.
Audrey : you're so nice, thank you.
P : it's because you were born in Brussel ?
Audrey : I hope it's the reason why !
P : tell us : did you begin with theatre plays before acting/cinema ?
Audrey : Yes. I began my career as a ballet dancer. I studied ballet for years. I danced in London. And one day I had the opportunity to work for 2 or 3 days in studio, for a movie. And after that, 4 or 5 days, and after a little role and after a bigger one. And suddenly, in 1952, I made a test for "Roman Holidays" for William ... ( the produceur of the movue ?).
And at the same time, the same year, I played Gigi on Broadway, in New York.
That's all 😊 hope the translation isn't too bad 😅
She basically was just talking about her break into acting. How she danced until she was 10 I think? And then at 15 she began to find small roles and eventually went to New York.
Son français est superbe, rien à dire et sa est d'une douceur🤗❤️❤️. (Avis d'une ado belge)
What a women... She was an excellent actress and was able to talk five or six different languages. Not to mention how pretty Aubrey was.
I only have truly admiration words for what she achieved!
She is so tiny ❤️
She’s 5’ 7
Soooo graceful!! Such an intelligent Lady!! One of my all time favorite actresses. Love her!!!
When I see Audrey I feel I am zero as a human and woman. She makes me speechless...the way she is, the way she talks, everything!
Hey don't ever feel a zero! If you feel this way then you're wonderfully humble and that is beautiful and charming, just like she is: beautiful, charming and humble.
She was incredibly beautiful!!
Audrey ♥️🦋
One of a kind. Her frech is super fluent, and charisma it's very light.. There's a delicate posture about the way she carries herself, and speaks.. She did work with best of her era!

The fact that I dont understand a word makes her even more beautiful. What a lady
Love heeeeeer
she was so beautiful
Very beautiful and add up the language
She was born in Brussels. I’m not patriotic but every time I have the opportunity to say Audrey Hepburn was born in the same country as mine, I jump on the occasion.
It’s just random chance... nothing to boast about lol
Hahahah same im proud of that
haha same for me that's an honour for us ! That's really very good :D
vous avez bien raison! la bise à nos voisins Belges :)
The epitome of timeless beauty and elegance!
Even though i understand absolutely nothing, i am watching this over and over again.
Mesmerizing
My God !!! What is there not to love about this incredible woman ?? ;)))))
i am impressed
J'adore Audrey!
both masculinity and femenininty were perfect at this stage of human history, the focus on classiness, cleanliness, sophistication by both genders were at its peak at this time
God how beautiful this woman was and when she was older she was beautiful. There is one boutique in my country called atiffany in her style a beautiful boutique. I bought few things from there. She has nice pleasant voice.
The way she glared at him when he said Madame Ferrer was so funny
Какая красавица! Сколько обаяния и доброты в улыбке, взгляде...
The very definition of elegance and beauty. Parfait!!
SHES SO PRETTY
She was talented, beautiful and charming. She was just perfect. I really would like to meet her.
Bartek Kubica Kto by nie chciał? Cudowna istota.
looking her absolute best
Respect, magnifique époque.
Missing you Audrey 🙏🏿👑👑👑🙏🏿
A sweetest kid ❤️🌹of natural beauty, grace, innocence❤️🎉🌹
elle est vraiment magnifique rien à dire ❤
Quelle grâce ! Elle est sublime.
I'm french and i can testify Audrey Hepburn speaks french like a native.
Tout de même pas ! ..."je suis commencé" ; "le raison" ; "merveilleuse gala", etc. ...mais elle a une excellente prononciation et un tel charme !
@@georgesj.5995 Les locuteurs natifs aussi font des erreurs, certes pas tout à fait de ce niveau là, encore que... Audrey Hepburn a une diction irréprochable et un accent indiscernable, tant et si bien qu'un français de souche qui l'écouterait d'une oreille un peu distraite pourrait tout à fait la prendre pour une native.
So French 😁 why are the French so fancy and strangely delicate?
Love❤❤❤
she's gorgeous
I ADORE READING
Epitome of elegance, beauty and intelligence! That is what she was!
Son français est parfait, quelle élégance !
elle etais tellement belle cette femme
She is astonishingly beautiful. A true Legend.
Audrey was a queen
Audrey Hepburn ou la Grâce et l'Elégance incarnée
Audrey's smile could have launched a thousand Moon Rockets.
She’s so cute
Très bien Audrey! I wish my french accent sounded like that
Iconic beauty and elegance 💓
happy i understand evrything ahhahah love her so much
Si gracieux et parfait
Splendida !!!
