Description

Star de cinéma à la beauté atypique, icône intemporelle de la mode à la décontraction recherchée, femme engagée auprès de l'Unicef : près de vingt ans après sa mort, Audrey Hepburn continue à faire rêver toutes les générations aux quatre coins de la planète. A travers de multiples témoignages et de magnifiques photos, ce livre-CD retrace en images et en chansons un destin hors du commun. Eliza Doolittle, Holly Golightly, Sabrina Fairchild : les personnages incarnes par Audrey Hepburn à l'écran ont marqué plusieurs générations de spectateurs. Côté scène, l'affiche a de quoi faire rêver : l'actrice, à la fois gracile et forte, a partagé l'affiche avec les plus grandes stars d'Hollywood, de Gregory Peck à Cary Grant. Son style, fait d'élégance quand Givenchy l'habille, et de simplicité dans la vie de tous les jours, continue à être reconnaissable entre tous grâce à sa touch of class. Pourtant, en coulisses, la vie d'Audrey Hephurn ne ressemble pas à un conte de fées, et son engagement auprès de l'Unicef est bien loin des paillettes du cinéma. Mais peut-être est-ce parce qu'elle a toujours su prendre le parti de la vie, en gardant son sourire inoubliable, que la vie lui a tant donné. Une belle leçon d'élégance, dans tous les sens du terme. Une vie. Un destin.
