The non story
Shannen Doherty is Liz Taylor! James Van Der Beek is Laurence Olivier! Hey, anything's possible, now that Clearasil spokeswoman Jennifer Love Hewitt has taken the title role of "The Audrey Hepburn Story," (1 1/2 stars out of 4 stars, 7 tonight, KSTP-Ch. 5), a lightweight portrait that's about as endearing as a fake British accent. Don't worry that the teen queen looks nothing like the screen queen. None of the others in the movie resemble their famous counterparts, either. (Truman Capote looks like he's being played by a 15-year-old boy.) If Hewitt and the gang wanted to play dress-up for three hours, they should have put on a school play or, even better, gone to the Lifetime network. It's not all the actors' fault. Hepburn had a relatively scandal-free, admirable life, and while that makes her a great humanitarian, it doesn't make for juicy human drama.

Heads up
Tales of two Seans
Just a couple of Seans sitting around, playing Irish story songs. They would be Rykodisc recording artist Sean Tyrell (vocals, tenor guitar, mandola, mando-cello, mando-bass, and four-string banjo), and his pal Sean Conway, an all-Ireland whistle champ who also ably tackles guitar and flute.
Tyrell is a truly stirring singer whose repertoire is full of contemporary Celtic gems, not to mention a nifty version of the cowboy classic "Red River Valley."
- When: 8 p.m. Tuesday.
- Where: Kieran's Irish Pub, 330 2nd Av. S., Minneapolis.
- Tickets: $10.
- Call: 612-339-4499.
