Event Details
Audrey Hepburn made one of the most sensational debuts in screen history, winning an Academy Award for her first starring role. In this modern-day fairy tale (reputedly based on a real-life experience of Britain's Princess Margaret…but also remarkably similar to the reel-life model of Frank Capra's IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT), a cooped-up princess on an Italian tour runs away from her royal duties and into the arms of an American newsman (Peck), who must choose between a career-making scoop and a risky romance. 4K DCP digital.
