Sabrina (1954)
10/10
A gem of a romantic comedy
13 September 2010
This mayn't be the best of Billy Wilder's films, but it is one of his most underrated. As a romantic comedy, it is funny, sophisticated and moving, with beautiful production values, a delightful script and sparkling performances. Wilder's direction is great, while the story is clever and engaging. I also love the cinematography and especially Audrey Hepburn's dresses. The score is romantic, and the script is wonderful and sparkles like bubbles and champagne. I heard this film had a difficult production, if that were the case I don't think it showed. The performances are equally wonderful. The lovely Audrey Hepburn is radiant and charming, William Holden shows real star quality and despite the claims he hated doing Sabrina Humphrey Bogart(or so I think) is perfectly cast. In conclusion, this film is a gem. 10/10 Bethany Cox
