Scenes That I Love: Audrey Hepburn in Two For The Road


Today would have been the 97th birthday of one of my favorite actresses, the wonderful Audrey Hepburn!

We’re all Audrey Hepburn fans here at the Shattered Lens.  How could we not be?  She was one of the greats and, for that reason, today’s scene that I love comes from one of her best films, 1967’s Two For The Road.

In this scene, Albert Finney and Audrey Hepburn play a married couple who discuss their troubled but loving marriage while on the road.  This film features one Audrey’s best performances.

Scenes That I Love: Audrey Hepburn in Two For The Road


Today would have been the 95rd birthday of one of my favorite actresses, the wonderful Audrey Hepburn!

We’re all Audrey Hepburn fans here at the Shattered Lens.  How could we not be?  Long before she made her film debut, Audrey Hepburn literally risked her life as a part of the Dutch Resistance during World War II.  After she retired from regularly appearing in the movies, she devoted herself to humanitarian causes and brought attention to the plight of refugees the world over.  She was one of the greats and, for that reason, today’s scene that I love comes from one of her best films, 1967’s Two For The Road.

In this scene, Albert Finney and Audrey Hepburn play a married couple who discuss their troubled but loving marriage while on the road.  This film features one Audrey’s best performances.
