Audrey

I love Audrey and I wanted to love this movie. Although there are moments that shine and much lovely footage of Audrey, this documentary fell flat in many aspects.

Worst of all were the absolutely cheesy and unnecessary "reenactments" featuring modern day ballerinas dancing - and an awful father daughter reenactment, yikes. Took this from what could've been a beautiful tribute for a timeless star to a made-for-tv c-list movie. How disappointing.

The music choices could've been better and many great films were glossed over or missed.

The one area that was featured well in this documentary is fashion, I enjoyed both the commentary and the looks showcased, I just wish the other elements of Audrey's very rich life were given the same treatment.

We really didn't need the dramatization of the dancers. Not sure what the point of all that was. It would have been much better without that. She was a remarkable, beautiful person and the world was made better by her being in it.

It needed tighter editing and tried to be "overly artsy" at times, but Audrey Hepburn was still a fascinating individual

"Audrey," The new documentary on Netflix, begins with a reenactment of a ballerina that the makers took pains in hoping we the viewer would be fooled into thinking it was Audrey Hepburn. Talk about starting on the wrong foot. The documentary plods through her early life. Yikes her family were Nazi sympathizers! She of course was not and even ran resistance in WW2. It takes a long time to get to Hollywood with little time on her best films, "Roman Holiday" and "Sabrina." Too much time on the iconic "Tiffany's" which is all splash and no mention of later work, i.e. "Robin & Marian."

It is wonderful seeing her at various public events dressed so beautifully. She was a living breathing work of art. So many of us loved her so much. To hear of her unhappy marriages was painful but I am not suggesting the pain should have been left out.

The documentary needed serious editing, less filler and those horrible re-enactments left on the cutting room floor. One hour of the best would perhaps have saved this documentary from being a mess.

Audrey's UNICEF work remarkable. She was a truly remarkable person but a little of that aspect goes a long way.

A near perfect documentary of this much beloved movie icon, my only real complaint would be the over use of a not so look alike ballerina that keeps popping up and swirling around, that aside, it's a pretty comprehensive over view of a life, although relatively short lived, packed with a lot of highs and lows, a seemingly fragile in appearance, yet surprisingly strong woman. Haunted by the desertion of a Father she loved, plus many insecurities, she somehow overcame them and in the end gave back selflessly to the World that had given her so much. May her Star continue to shine brightly
