Natalie Portman finds the late Audrey Hepburn<\/a>\u2019s charity work \u201cinspirational\u201d.<\/p>\n

Natalie Portman loves Audrey Hepburn<\/p>\n

The 42-year-old actress has expressed her admiration for the \u2018Breakfast At Tiffany\u2019s\u2019 star – who passed away in 1993 aged 63 – for swapping the \u201cglamour\u201d and \u201callure\u201d of Hollywood to work as an anti-poverty campaigner after cementing a name for herself as an activist. <\/p>\n

Speaking before the strike be actors union SAG-AFTRA, the 42-year-old actress told the UK edition of Readers Digest: \u201cAudrey Hepburn<\/a> is one of the most inspirational people to me because she left acting to go work with UNICEF.<\/p>\n

“I just saw a compilation of all her visits to Africa, and I was crying. To be able to leave the glamour behind, and all the allure of movies, and be real and help people is an admirable thing to do.”<\/p>\n

Natalie – who has son Aleph, 12, and daughter Amalia, six, with Benjamin Millepied – also spoke about the French film industry insisting it is much more female-friendly than Hollywood – and believes it’s because of France\u2019s better welfare state.<\/p>\n

\nShe told the same outlet: \u201cIt\u2019s really interesting in France, when you see the young generation of directors – almost entirely female. I think there are so many factors that go into that. I think that one is that there is a much greater social network in France for women. There is great childcare that is free that we do not have in the US, which is a really big issue for women who are mothers.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nNatalie also revealed how found the pivot to production in her new movie \u2018May December\u2019 – which also stars Julianne Moore, 62 – gave her a \u201cnew appreciation\u201d for the behind-the-scenes work of \u201corganised\u201d director Todd Haynes, 62. <\/p>\n

\nNatalie said: \u201cObviously, having 30 years of [the] work experience I\u2019ve had informs it, but you get a whole new appreciation for what goes on, just to push the movie – or series – up the hill.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cTodd is such a dream. He\u2019s so organised, prepared, such a great leader. It\u2019s one of those projects where everything really flows, which is a joy, because more often, it\u2019s quite the contrary.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
