Movies Watched -- Sabrina (1954)

Added on by C. Maoxian.

113 minute running time, so about 20 minutes too long. Romantic comedy from the mid 50’s … Humphrey Bogart in an unusual role since he’s such an unlikely sex symbol (54 years old then) or comic actor … was supposed to be Cary Grant playing “Linus,” but he dropped out at the last minute. Anyway, the movie really belongs to Audrey Hepburn (24 years old then), who is wonderful. The first half of the movie is weaker when she isn’t front and center, but once she is, it becomes charming and lovable. The script is uneven, apparently written on the fly, so some parts are funnier than others. But in the end, this gets a green-go rating.
