Book Description
"Why should Audrey Hepburn still matter today? This book revises the contemporary view of Hepburn that sees her primarily as a fashion icon and style guru. It argues that her films, more than her biography or her likeness, are essential to understanding both her importance as one of the all-time major stars to emerge in Hollywood after World War II and her lasting popularity. On Audrey Hepburn examines her screen presence and persona while at the same time emphasizing her skill as an actress. While cognizant of the many contradictions inhering in her films, the book examines the liminality she represented in her comedies and musicals, demonstrating how her characters' desiring and intelligence supply the primary motors of the plots, resist the films' patriarchal template, and complicate her asymmetrical casting opposite older male stars. Moreover, Hepburn's close relation with designer Hubert de Givenchy, which established her identification with haute couture, enabled her characters' movement onscreen and was a basis for understanding transformation through fashion as an turning-point event in the narrative, which forged a pathway through spectacle for viewer identification with Hepburn's difference, as symbolized by her unorthodox body, which the clothes did not disguise but amplified. On Audrey Hepburn, finally, examines her skilful performances in thrillers and dramas, studying her expert timing and use of props, her expressive face as it revealed interior emotions and thinking, her interaction with other actors in an ensemble, and the overall nuance with which she developed complex characterizations"--

Book Description
This poignant and romantic novel from the New York Times bestselling author of One Italian Summer and In Five Years answers the question: If you could have dinner with any five people, living or dead, who would they be? A Bustle Book Club Selection “I have five words for Rebecca Serle’s The Dinner List: wistful, delicious, romantic, magical, love.” —Gabrielle Zevin, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry and Young Jane Young “We’ve been waiting for an hour.” That’s what Audrey says. She states it with a little bit of an edge, her words just bordering on cursive. That’s the thing I think first. Not: Audrey Hepburn is at my birthday dinner, but Audrey Hepburn is annoyed.” At one point or another, we’ve all been asked to name five people, living or dead, with whom we’d like to have dinner. Why do we choose the people we do? And what if that dinner was to actually happen? These are the questions Rebecca Serle contends with in her utterly captivating novel, The Dinner List, a story imbued with the same delightful magical realism as One Day, and the life-changing romance of Me Before You. When Sabrina arrives at her thirtieth birthday dinner she finds at the table not just her best friend, but also three significant people from her past, and well, Audrey Hepburn. As the appetizers are served, wine poured, and dinner table conversation begins, it becomes clear that there’s a reason these six people have been gathered together.
