Funny Face
The Daughter got Funny Face (1957) recently as a birthday present, and we watched it that day. We found the 58-year-old Fred Astaire's love-making to 28-year-old Audrey Hepburn a bit hard to buy. He looks older in this than his years, and she looks younger. This isn't the best effort for either of them. My favorite is Kay Thompson, better known as the author of the Eloise books.

I have never seen Funny Face. Love Audrey Hepburn. I much prefer movie trailers of yesteryear The ones of today make me dizzy. I'm old fashioned I suppose.
ReplyDeletei agree about the movie trailers. in trailers these days i'm sometimes left wondering what the heck the movie is about! lol
