I realise I'm a year and a half too late here, but I couldn't leave this stupid comment go uncountered. Audrey grew up in Nazi occupied Europe, suffered Anaemia and malnutrition, had her brother taken to a labour camp, saw the persecution of the Jews firsthand, was forced to give up her passion (ballet) simply because she was too tall and clawed her way up from the very bottom of the acting world. No-one can pretend Monroe faced anything like that. She had a tough, traumatic childhood granted, but nothing like Hepburn. The difference is she wallowed in self-pity and was a narcissist, whereas Hepburn wasn't so shallow and self-obsessed. Monroe's main impact was in creating a culture of self-pity that still remains to this day. Hepburn never forced her story on others, which is why it's relatively unknown - she didn't crave attention and pity like Monroe did. On a final note as to who's better simply in terms of acting ability, have a quick look at their respective Academy Award wins and nominations and you'll see why Hepburn is the undisputable better of the two[/quote]
