She died January 20, 1993.
You really are a few bulbs short of being bright, aren't you?
She "died" at the same time that the moon landing was "faked." ;-) Coincidence? I think not! :-)
shareI don't understand the premise of this thread.
shareThere are conspiracy nuts who insist a number of actors died earlier than they really did and were replaced with clones.
shareInteresting. I don't think that's a plausible theory.
shareIt's not, but that doesn't stop them from believing it.
shareOn a more "realistic" note:
Audrey Hepburn "retired" at the end of 1967, to raise her son, after reigning as a movie queen of the fifties and the sixties. 1967 saw her in two great movies: "Two for the Road" early on, and "Wait Until Dark" at the end. The latter was "one to go out on" -- she was paid one million bucks to do it, it was a massive box office hit, a truly terrifying thriller, and she got a Best Actress nomination from it.
I think Audrey sensed that "Wait Until Dark" was the one to quit on (and that "Two for the Road" was a critics' gem.)
But about a decade later, she was lured back to the screen, and the rhythm was all gone, and she didn't really look the same anymore either.
Robin and Marian was a big deal -- pairing her with Connery, grabbing a "People" cover -- but it proved way too dour and dull. Then came some bad ones -- Bloodline and They All Laughed. Some years later, she did a final cameo for Spielberg in Always, as a God-like figure -- good move, mediocre movie.
None of the Hepburn films from Robin and Marian on felt very important, and it does seem today that the Hepburn career properly ended in 1967 with Wait Until Dark. Funny: her Charade co-star Cary Grant retired in 1966(with "Walk Don't Run") and never came back. In retrospect, given what happened with Hepburn, it seemed the right move.
I have never heard of this conspiracy til today
shareI don't think this is even supposed to be a conspiracy theory-- it sounds like a jab at the quality of Hepburn's films made after the 1960s, which tend to have a mixed reputation at best. It's like when disgruntled Star Wars fans say "there's only three movies in this series" when they dislike the prequels.
