Note du spécialiste
On 28 January 1959, Hepburn was thrown from an Arabian stallion called Diablo during filming of The Unforgiven, breaking four bones in her back. She had insisted on riding herself, despite having a stunt double hired for the purpose. Marie Louise Habets, the real life Sister Luke of The Nun's Story, nursed Audrey back to health in Beverly Hills, and she returned to the set only six weeks later, vowing to get back on the horse.
