What a Leading Lady Is and What She Isn’t

In the movies every leading lady is not necessarily someone anyone wants to be. We already have the role, but when we talk of being a leading lady, we are talking about a lady that others look up to, a lady that others love and want to emulate. She is person of character and charm. She is also usually a person of great courage.

Her life is not necessarily easy or perfect. It’s not about the cards she is dealt as much as it is how she plays them.

Audrey Hepburn is someone who usually comes to my mind. And it’s usually more for who she was in real life. She had a grace and dignity about her while also being kind and keeping a sense of humor.

Who do you think of when you think of a leading lady?
