Sabrina

One of the least cynical movies from director Billy Wilder (Double Indemnity, The Seven Year Itch), Sabrina would be a fairly forgettable romantic comedy if not for its stellar cast: William Holden and Humphrey Bogart as ridiculously rich brothers and Audrey Hepburn as the chauffeur’s daughter they both romance. Hepburn’s performance in the title role is the reason to see the movie. Her innocent eyes and quick wit have never been in better balance, so Sabrina is at once the new kid on the block and the smartest person in the room.
