By Jason Morgan:
What
I saw on the big screen as fetching coquettishness, as a polished
Hollywood pose, perhaps felt, to Audrey Hepburn, like loose gauze over
an ugly scar. I try putting myself in her place for a moment, and I
suddenly stop seeing all of the bright lights and the accolades. I see,
instead, someone looking to be appreciated for who she really is, but
forever being mistaken for a movie star....There is a big lesson in this
for our celebrity-obsessed culture, for a world in which even the
mundane is turned into an online photo shoot.
