Sabrina

An old favorite on TCM today. Gosh I love Audrey Hepburn. She has such a likable quality. What is it? She seems so genuine and angelic at the same time. She makes you root for her but not envy her. The problem always with this 1954 original version of Sabrina (it was remade in 1995 with Julia Ormond, Harrison Ford, and Greg Kinnear) is Humphrey Bogart. He and Hepburn just do not go together. An otherwise very good romantic comedy dashed because of this poor casting decision. But of course, it’s worth watching just to see the lovely Audrey Hepburn, but this movie is not as as good as say, Roman Holiday.
