Recently Amazon launched a new program called Unbox. I blew it off at first because I was sure they would only have newer films for download, but as it turns out, they already have about 10 Audrey films up for grabs! What's even better is that they have some rarities that new fans don't usually get to see. There's the old standards: Breakfast at Tiffany's, Sabrina, Roman Holiday, but there's also some more dramatic, lesser known films everyone should know, such as The Nun's Story and The Children's Hour. There is even an episode of Great Romances of the Twentieth Century all about her relationship with first husband Mel Ferrer, which I haven't even seen and have been trying to get a hold of for ages!This program is great because you can either download and rent a film for 24 hours for about $1.99, or you can buy the downloaded film for about $9.99, keep the film forever, and even legally download it to another computer or program it in to your TiVo. Pretty cool, huh? You can see the complete list of Audrey Hepburn items currently available through Unbox here, and I will definitely keep an eye on these and share any new goodies that may come up!
Note: this appears to only be available to residents of the US for the time being.
