The film is one of the few movies starring Audrey Hepburn in which her singing voice has not been dubbed.

"Funny Face" was originally a musical stage play performed by dancer and actor Fred Astaire on Broadway in 1927. He usually has almost harsh requirements for the dance skills of the actors he collaborates with, but he admires Hepburn very much. Because Hepburn studied dance since she was a child, and even determined to devote herself to ballet, her dancing skills made Astaire, who was born as a dancer, unable to fault .

In "Funny Face", Audrey's dress in black, black pants and white socks became a fashion in the United States and Europe after the film was released. During the filming, the director asked Audrey to wear black tights, black top and black shoes, but Asking her to wear white socks, Hepburn was firmly opposed at the time, thinking that wearing white socks would destroy the entire black line and make her feet look inconsistent. The director insisted that if you don't wear white socks, the whole person will be melted away by the background, and the action will be invisible. Hepburn burst into tears and ran into the cloakroom. After regaining her calm, she put on white stockings and continued filming. After the film was released, after watching the scene, she handed a note of thanks to the director. Because she had been worried that wearing white socks would make her size 8 and a half bigger feet, she burst into tears .

Audrey Hepburn’s agent initially rejected the film, but Hepburn starred in the film regardless of the agent’s decision after reading the script .

I'm still weak on musicals, and I fell asleep several times during the whole process... The bright spot... I'm afraid it's Hepburn's beauty. As for dance... Put it in a pair of professional musical actors, what would you say to me? I can only say that the dance is very hard

Three and a half. The script is actually quite poor, the characters are flat, the changes are abrupt, and the anticlimactic, the second half of the story in Paris did not unfold at all. Hepburn and Astaire are also completely different, there is no spark at all. But the song and dance of the film is really good: the opening pink song and dance is amazing; Astaire is a matador solo dance downstairs in Hepburn, and I can't believe he is nearly sixty years old! In addition, a group of blockbusters shot by Hepburn in Paris is really peerless, especially the one imitating the goddess of victory! Oh, and Hepburn does a rare modern dance in the film, presumably Astaire did for her? The dance was great but Hepburn was a little stiff, probably not suitable for modern dance. The church lawn section is really sweet and tacky...
