Not Even Audrey Hepburn Was Immune to Airbrushing

Audrey Hepburn, Airbrushed for 'Breakfast at Tiffany's'

This is either highly depressing or highly heartening, depending on where you stand on today's whole celebrity-Photoshop controversy: Back when Breakfast at Tiffany's was released, in 1961, someone at the studio thought Audrey Hepburn, then 32, needed a little smoothing over in some of the publicity stills from the movie. In a never-before-released image -- which appears in a new coffee-table book celebrating the film's 50th anniversary -- a close-up of the actress's face is marked up where retouchers went to town. Whether her faint crows'-feet and slight discoloration around the nose actually warranted airbrushing -- or whether any flaw, on anyone, ever, needs erasing -- is up for debate.
