RARE 18 year old AUDREY HEPBURN in her 1948 acting debut 'Dutch in Seven Lessons'

This was Audrey's first appearance on film! Dutch in Seven Lessons (Nederlands in zeven lessen) is a film produced in the Netherlands in 1948. The film is notable because it was the first film in which Audrey Hepburn appeared; she has a small role as a stewardess. Although sometimes listed in Hepburn filmographies as a short film, in fact the Internet Movie Database lists its running time as 79 minutes. The movie was cut to 39 minutes for English release.

As a Dutchman, I am amazed, and strangely proud, that one of the greatest icons in the history of film, lived in my country, spoke my language, and on top of that, debuted in a Dutch film!

​@Stepwood Mashups Dit soort hatelijke leugens over goede mensen, is typerend voor de tijd waarin we leven, helaas.

[@vesogry]

For years I thought she was a Dutch actress.

[@davidpolando5595]

As well you should. Her poise, bearing, continental accent, adult view of the world and commitment to benevolence are unique in the industry.

[@vesogry]

@@davidpolando5595 The only thing that I don't like about her is that he had to many lovers (seems like 10), and one of them was married.

What? what business is it of yours to judge the highly personal intimate lives of others? @@vesogry

Her genuine beautiful smile made her Audrey Hepburn the star.

Oh my look at her. Bro i really wish i was born in the old days

[@carterbroadway39]

All we get today is lizzo... a 300 pound water balloon prancing around in a thong and lecturing us on racial morality when she herself is devoid of it. But it's crammed down our throats. That's today.

Even at 18, she was lovely.

Even at 18? Women's prime is between 18 and 23.

She's so pretty

That Beautiful Smile...Those Hypnotic Eyes...and That Cute Nose, that she didn't like...yup, I could've spotted Audrey Hepburn a mile away.

Audrey so cute!

Anyone can translate?

[@Justjacq13]

The whole thing is boring as fuck but the conversation between Audrey and the voice over is basically this: VOICE OVER: Stop! Look out, watch out, child! Yes you! *whistles* Yes you! Who are you actually? AUDREY: I'm a flight attendant at the KLM (Royal Dutch airlines). VOICE OVER: You don't look it. AUDREY: *nods suggestively* Well, you should see me in my uniform! VOICE OVER: *makes noises* man, man, man.. that's something and then he goes on about everything Audrey has taught him about flying.

@@baronmeduse Audrey heeft ook een heel andere uitspraak in het Nederlands. Ik ben er vrij zeker van dat het nagesynchroniseerd was.

@@chrischris4028 Ik denk van niet. Je kan ook een andere interview zien uit de jaren '60 waar ze Nederlands spreekt en klinkt als Beatrix! Hoe oud is ze hier? 16, 17 en toentertijd woonde ze in Amsterdam met een Nederlandse moeder?
