Audrey Hepburn, a goddess with an elegant figure and a beautiful heart.
Audrey Hepburn was born in Brussels, Belgium in 1929.
Her father was born in a Bohemian town, holds British nationality, is a British financial consultant, and is of partial British descent. Her mother is Dutch, with Dutch, French and Hungarian ancestry, and her family is prominent.
Hepburn’s father was her mother’s second husband. The two met at a party. Hepburn’s mother was attracted to him at first sight and quickly fell in love.
After the two got married, they went to Indonesia and got married in Jakarta. At that time, Hepburn's father was very poor, while Hepburn's mother was from a well-off family. It can be seen that Hepburn's father had a great attraction to women.
At 3:00 in the morning on May 4, 1929, in Brussels, Belgium, Hepburn was born. Hepburn was a chubby baby with a big head, completely different from her later slim figure and delicate face.
Hepburn’s parents loved music and often played beautiful melodies in their room. As a child, Hepburn was often immersed in the singing.
When Hepburn was a little older, her mother took her to live in England. Once, something happened that horrified and surprised Hepburn's mother.
She took the several-year-old Hepburn for a stroll in the park, but in the blink of an eye, Hepburn disappeared. The mother was very anxious, she shouted around, and finally saw Hepburn dancing to the band playing in the street.
Music infused Hepburn's heart with a natural sense of rhythm and beautiful melody. The graceful dancing she showed in the movie is closely related to her immersion in music as a child.
Music gave Hepburn more happiness in her life, but another sound added endless pain to her life.
Hepburn's father and mother often quarreled after they got married, which cast a shadow and great uneasiness in Hepburn's young mind. Hepburn's father was an independent, confident, but somewhat stubborn man.
The same is true for her mother, so when the two quarreled, they often refused to give in to each other. When the quarrel turned red, Hepburn would often sneak under the dining table alone. When he grew up, Hepburn never spoke loudly, and his voice was always soft.
Hepburn’s parents attached great importance to Hepburn’s education. Especially her mother, who gave Hepburn an excellent family education.
She always taught Hepburn to be self-disciplined, to be considerate, to study and work hard, and to balance inner desires.
These profound principles slowly planted seeds in Hepburn's young mind. Therefore, after Hepburn became famous, she could still maintain her indifference and calmness towards fame and fortune.
In the second half of 1935, when Hepburn was about 6 years old, she faced a huge ups and downs in her life. Her father ran away from home, and a few years later, Hepburn's parents officially divorced.
Later, when Hepburn recalled that difficult moment, she choked and said:
After her parents divorced, her mother took Hepburn to live in the Netherlands. It was in the Netherlands that she met her father for the first and only time after he ran away from home.
How much she missed her father, how much she wanted to have a father, she wondered if her father could never leave her again. However, Hepburn's father was about to face a life of imprisonment due to behavioral problems.
He put Hepburn on a plane and kept watching Hepburn's plane fly into the sky and disappear from his sight. This was the last time Hepburn saw her father in her life. From then on, Her father never appeared in her sight again.
As a child, Hepburn loved to dance, and she could always dance to all kinds of music. When her mother saw that she loved dancing, she sent her to study at the Arnhem Music and Dance Academy.
When Hepburn grew up, her slim and elegant figure and slender and graceful neck were all the result of ballet training in her childhood.
Ballet dancing was Hepburn's only fun when she was a child. She had few friends as a child, was introverted, and had no other entertainment activities. But in those difficult years, she felt satisfied to be able to learn her beloved ballet dance.
During Audrey Hepburn’s teenage years, she was immersed in the study of ballet. She took diligence as her life criterion. She had no time to fall in love, watch movies, or participate in During the party, her heart was completely occupied by ballet.
However, although Hepburn practiced diligently every day, as Hepburn got older and had a clearer understanding of her dancing ability, she found that no matter how hard she worked, she could not succeed in the ballet world. It’s hard to become the next Margot Fonteyn.
In any field, reaching extremely high heights requires talent. There is a gap between ordinary talent and extreme talent. The gap may not be big, but It is this small gap that can determine whether a person achieves pioneering achievements in this field.
Hepburn was very depressed after learning this reality.
After working so hard, I found out that in the end I was just an ordinary ballet dancer.
After that, Hepburn began to think and look for other directions in life while dancing ballet.
When God closes a door for you, he will always open another window for you. At that time, in order to revitalize the tourism industry in the Netherlands, the Dutch airlines wanted to shoot a video of dozens of minutes to promote the great scenery of the Netherlands. They need a girl who is proficient in English and Dutch to play the stewardess in the film and introduce it to audiences around the world.
At that time, Hepburn was introduced and got the opportunity to audition. She finally won this role due to her superior personal ability. This is the first time in Hepburn's life that she has appeared on screen. At that time, she had just turned 18 years old.
After that, Hepburn began to work as a model and participated in commercial performances as much as possible to earn a living income.
At that time, she was faced with two choices in life, either to continue studying ballet and earn income by performing ballet in various places, or to participate in musicals. Hepburn followed her true inner thoughts and chose the latter.
At that time, a producer in New York was recruiting actors for a Broadway musical. Hepburn stood out from more than 3,000 contestants and became one of the actors in the musical.
Then she began to star in another musical "Tartar Sauce". It was this musical that changed Hepburn's life and career again, and this change made Hepburn famous. She began to grow day by day and became an indispensable elegant movie goddess in the world film industry.
When Hepburn was starring in "Tartar Sauce", she fell in love with one of the actors, which was absolutely not allowed in the contract she signed. In desperation, Hepburn had no choice but to leave. Turn to develop another career: movies.
Hepburn's initial film career was not smooth. The first film she participated in only had 20 seconds of acting time, and the subsequent films she participated in also had very few scenes. Her role positioning made her It’s hard to use your acting skills. But many directors who have worked with her know in their hearts that Hepburn is an actress with great potential. As long as the opportunity comes, she will be able to rise from the ashes and soar into the sky.
After participating in several movies, Hepburn gradually fell in love with this industry and acting. In the rest of her life, she has been working hard in the film industry she loves, and has brought many classic films to everyone. She has also received a lot of honors and praises in her own life because of the success of the films.
Hepburn's career has made brilliant achievements, but her love life has been full of twists and turns and is extremely bumpy.
