Program Description

Event Details

Audrey Hepburn was an actress and fashion icon whose movie career spanned four decades.  She was mostly known as the female lead in romantic dramas, but worked in many genres including thrillers, comedies, crime, musicals, and even a little horror.  AFI named her the third greatest female star of American cinema behind only Katharine Hepburn and Bette Davis.  She is one of only a handful of people who have won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony.

On this night, we will be watching Stanley Donen's 1963 film "Charade" starring Audrey, Cary Grant, and Walter Matthau.

Romance and intrigue ensue in Paris as a woman is pursued by several men who want to get their hands on a fortune her murdered husband had stolen. She soon loses trust in those who claim they want to help her.
