I watched the documentary on Netflix about Audrey Hepburn. What a lady! She was so kind and good. She had a hard life during the war and her family left them. What a jerk! She tracked him down later in life and he was cold and indifferent. How very sad. She was so good in "Wait Until Dark", "Sabrina", and, my all-time favorite "My Fair Lady". She worked for Unicef up until she got cancer and died in the early 90s.
I watched that and turned on TCM to see if there might be a good movie to watch. The AFI's tribute to Dame Julie Andrews was half over. Another fine lady. They showed outtakes from her movies and people she had worked with spoke about her. Everyone loves her. They all say she is very down-to-earth and fun to be around. She was in "Mary Poppins", "The Sound of Music" and "Victor Victoria" among others.
Do you like these two? What are your favorite movies they did?

I remember the name of the late Audrey Hepburn when I was living in Panama when movies played in both the capital and the Canal Zone in theaters and on television. I remember her movies with the late Spencer Tracy.
I did not know that Julie Andrews was knighted by the Royal Family. I remember her role in "Mary Poppins" due to the soundtrack song of the movie.

I think you are thinking of Katharine Hepburn who was in movies with Spencer Tracy. I don't know of any movie Audrey was in with him.

@celticeagle I do not think that Audrey Hepburn made movies with the late Spencer Tracy who was before my time.

Audrey Hepburn was one of my favorite movie actresses back then. I saw all the movies you names but actually saw My Fair Lady 5 times. I also bought the record (vinyls then)

Two great actresses! So many terrific films. Some of the movies with Hepburn I saw were Charade, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Roman Holiday, and those you mentioned. Julie Andrews was so talented. I even liked her role in "10" with Dudley Moore, showing her comedic skills.
