Funny Face (8/9) Movie CLIP - The Quality Woman (1957) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Jo (Audrey Hepburn) and Dick (Fred Astaire) argue about Professor Flostre's intentions, with disastrous consequences.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
This filmed version of the 1927 George Gershwin Broadway musical Funny Face utilizes the play's original star, Fred Astaire, and several of the original tunes, then goes merrily off on its own. Astaire is cast as as fashion photographer Dick Avery (a character based on Richard Avedon, the film's "visual consultant"), who is sent out by his female boss Maggie Prescott (Kay Thompson) to find a "new face". It doesn't take Dick long to discover Jo (Audrey Hepburn, who does her own singing), an owlish Greenwich Village bookstore clerk. Acting as Pygmalion to Jo's Galatea, Dick whisks the wide-eyed girl off to Paris and transforms her into the fashion world's hottest model. Along the way, he falls in love with Jo, and works overtime to wean her away from such phony-baloney intellectuals as Professor Emile Flostre (Michel Auclair). The Gershwin tunes include the title song, "S'wonderful", "How Long Has This Been Going On" and "He Loves and She Loves"; among the newer numbers is Kay Thompson's energetic opener "Think Pink". For years available only in washed-out, flat prints, Funny Face was eventually restored to its full Technicolor and VistaVision glory.

She's so beautiful, chic and graceful... wow...

[lukasmiller]

It’s so funny how Maggie is trying to drown out the argument behind the curtain.

[lialing]

Watching a lot of Audrey Hepburn's movie clips on her birthday. 🎦 Timeless beauty. I'm inlove. ❤️

[AI-chif]

She should have kept on the blue gloves. The added pop of color looked good.

[bentleyamor]

Audrey Hepburn is sooo amazing and beautiful 😍❤😚👑

[jaded]

i <3 this move and Fred Astaire is sooo handsome

[yumi]

I love bow she slaps him twice with her scarf in 1:12 and 1:14

[radioheadtv]

Her arms they strong as an ox. That escalated quick

[ltanyajackson]

This is a Hollywood movie. You've suspended your disbelief. What you are looking at is the magic of Fred Astaire and his talent. What you're looking at is astoundingly beautiful fashion. What you're looking at is Audrey Hepburn performing in a delightful role. But it's a role. His name sold the production. It's a wonderful movie just enjoy it as such. In real life there might be a 20-year-old chick who likes an older guy who can dance. It's rare but it happens. But that old guy wouldn't be Fred Astaire and that's the attraction

[maryes]

He is too old for her, he could be her grandpa

[victoriam]

This scene is hilarious. Why can't I find the whole movie?

[lilMissFF]

So the quality woman who broke the stage with a massive flood haha

[traceysmith]

It will be a daily conversation until there is nothing left to question. If that should happen I can’t imagine being able to wait any longer.

[lauracorbett]

This is my second favorite Audrey Hepburn movie next to Breakfast At Tiffany’s

[CatsInHats-S.CrouchingTiger]

Oh dear, this little mess, the props collapsing, the man falling, the fountain breaking, & water raining down on everything everywhere. 😒🙉😨🙊😟

[moiyankabose]

Where can I get the link of the movie(Funny face)?

[livesimplyandhumbly]

Somehow the movie worked out.
Fred Astaire was 30 years older than Audrey Hepburn.
Hepburn wasn't even 30 iyet n this movie.

[RichardJenzden]

In this movie hero is not suitable for audry hepburn hero is just like her father

[jlew]

I’m sorry but I can’t over the 30 year age gap, loved the movie but why didn’t they use a younger man instead they got a 60 year old man to play the role Wtaf

[liquidmocofilmsllc]

I can't believe how stupid some old movies are. The lines are not funny and the acting is so forced, like your watching a play instead of a movie with real acting.
