Audrey: More Than An Icon is a new documentary by Helena Coan. Coan displays the real Audrey Hepburn, a side that has been overlooked.
The Synopsis
Audrey Hepburn won her first Academy Award at the age of 24, and went on to become one of the world’s greatest cultural icons: a once-in-a-generation beauty, and legendary star of Hollywood’s Golden Age, whose style and pioneering collaboration with Hubert de Givenchy continues to inspire. But who was the real Audrey Hepburn?

I had the opportunity to connect with Helena Coan last month via Zoom to talk about Audrey: More Than An Icon. She shared her excitement to make this documentary and the new material she found about the starlet. Coan also spoke about her experience interviewing Audrey Hepburn’s son, Sean Hepburn Ferrer and granddaughter Emma Kathleen Hepburn Ferrer for this documentary.
