Sabrina (1954)

Who: Monica
What: Sabrina (the 1954 version)
Where: Home
Why: B/C I needed a great movie that I hadn't seen in awhile while also reading a book.

How much do you love Audrey Hepburn? Then when you put her together with Humphrey Bogart, you are sure to have a fantastic movie on your hands. I love old movies, Audrey Hepburn and this is a fabulous one.

Sabrina is the chauffeur's daughter and grows up watching the big parties of the Larrabees. She is fascinated by the youngest Larrabee brother, David. She's so young that no one pays her any attention. She goes off to cooking school in France and returns a beautiful woman. The boys, both, then notice her for sure. She gets to know them both better and then there is a choice to be made. For awhile, we're not sure who gets to make the choice though. The brothers seem to think they can make it for her. Twists and turns, love prevails.

I like the remake a lot too I must say-

Loved this one and the remake--Harrison ford oh yah! I thought it was interesting that the original had Sabrina go away to cooking school while the remake she went to Paris to learn about photography. The scene where she cooks up something in the office was a hoot!
