The Audrey Hepburn Story from 2000 is a biographical drama film that recounts the life of the legendary actress and humanitarian Audrey Hepburn. Directed by Steven Robman, the movie stars Jennifer Love Hewitt in the titular role alongside Frances Fisher as her mother Ella, and Keir Dullea as her father Joseph. The movie begins with a young Audrey growing up in World War II-era Holland, caught between her aristocratic British father and her Dutch Baroness mother. After the war, Audrey moves to London to pursue a career in ballet, but is eventually forced to switch to acting due to her height and the physical demands of dance.

We see Audrey's career take off with her role in the film Roman Holiday, which catapults her to international stardom and earns her an Academy Award for Best Actress. The movie then delves into her personal life, including her marriage to actor Mel Ferrer and the birth of her two sons, as well as her work as a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF.

Throughout the film, Hewitt does an exceptional job of portraying Hepburn, evoking her signature charm, grace, and poise both on and off screen. She is particularly convincing in the scenes where Audrey suffers from various health issues, including anemia and miscarriages.

Fisher and Dullea also add depth and complexity to their roles as Audrey's parents, both of whom struggle with their own demons and their strained relationship with their daughter.

One of the highlights of The Audrey Hepburn Story is its attention to detail and historical accuracy, from the costumes and hairstyles to the recreations of iconic film scenes. The film also features an impressive supporting cast, including Gabriel Macht as William Holden, Eric McCormack as Mel Ferrer, and Emmy Rossum as Hepburn's friend and fellow actress, American masterclass in acting, Colleen Dewhurst.

Overall, The Audrey Hepburn Story is a heartfelt tribute to one of the most beloved actresses of all time, covering both her triumphs and her struggles with equal measure. Whether you are a longtime Hepburn fan or a newcomer to her work, this movie is definitely worth watching.
