Yes, people DID "look older" than what they did in more modern times; however in his two first "talkies", he was already 36 or 37, in 1936's THE PETRIFIED FOREST and 37 or 38 in 1937's DEADEND.
Part of the "looking older at a youngish age", has to do with the clothing, hair styles, and makeup.

Oh, okay, but I think that you’ll really enjoy the movie; it’s very well done and has some unexpected twists and turns.

Hepburn STANK in MY FAIR LADY!

I'm a HUGE fan of Bette Davis, and DARK VICTORY is a "woman's movie"/"a weeper", as these used to be called. Not a bad film, but not great.
INVITAION is well worth watching.

He was 55 or 56, when Sabrina was made!

Movie triva fact. Hepburn and the married Holden has an affair during the filming of Sabrina. He was going to leave his wife but when Hepburn was told he had a vasectomy she left him because she wanted children.

I disagree. she sold the part, including the transformation well. They didn't let her sing, but I heard the singing tests, and she was okay. Not Julie Andrews ok, but no one is Julie Andrews ok.
I am not predisposed to like Audrey Hepburn movies, and I liked that one. Of course, that was Rex Harrison's movie, but Hepburn did not stop it from being one of the greatest musicals of all time.

Oh good; please let me know if you liked it, after you've seen it! :-)
I LOVE old movies,have an extensive collection of discs, so any time you want to chat about movies, contact me.
I really wish I could have helped you, re your question, but there wasn't enough info to go on. :-(

Always good to talk to you. You are very knowledgeable.
To: Dr. Sivana
Well, I'm comparing her to Julie Andrews' LIZA; so for me, Hepburn STANK ON ICE.
Not a fan of Audrey's, but I do like her in a few films..."ROMAN HOLIDAY","CHARADE", and she was GREAT in "ROBIN AND MARIAN".
Having seen the Broadway production of "WAIT UNTIL DARK", she and the movie version were not good at all.
Re "MY FAIR LADY"...I much prefer the first film,"PYGMALION" which was the film version of the stage play, that starred Leslie Howard and Wendy Hiller and wasn't a musical.
To: Chickensoup
Thank you for your kind words; much appreciated!
And I enjoy talking with YOU! :-)

Truman Capote’s best was “In Cold Blood”.
