I never really understood why so many girls were such big fans of her.

She has such a classic elegance about her.

In part, because she spent years training as a ballet dancer before becoming an actress.

Why didn't she stick to dancing as a career?

It seems it was fate.
或許是因為命運吧。
She suffered from inadequate nutrition during the war, and therefore a career as a professional dancer would have been too demanding on her body.

You know, the scene she was wearing a black dress and dark sunglasses with a pearl necklace and long black gloves.

Her character in that film is very outgoing and charming, even though in real life, Audrey always described herself as shy and quiet.
