Sabrina
First of all, look at the nice colour the links have. A big load of appreciation for Momo please, who has worked on this without telling me! *hrr* Now my beautiful blog design is complete – and I most probably will never change this again! *harr harr*
Oh, another personal thing: My parents have bought two webcams, one for themselves and one for my grandparents – isn’t that cute? They are having a video conference with them now and are all delighted… oh noes! They want me to show myself too~
*coughcough* Sorry for the unrelated stuff. Now onto the movie:
Maybe one should not that Sabrina is the only Billy Wilder movie with Audrey Hepburn aside from Love in the Afternoon. Both are in my opinion rather un-Billy-Wilder-like and pretty similar: They both are comedies, mainly deal with the lovestory a young, poor girl and some rich guy, both have some fairy tale-like characterstics and a happy-end. (Of course. I didn’t really spoil you, you would have guessed this from the beginning *g*)
What makes Sabrina so great is not the (really generic) storyline itself, but the lovely characters, the stylish and funny setting and the gorgeously witty dialogues. It’s a pity that I didn’t blog about this earlier, because I have forgotten all the funny quotes I wanted to talk about XD Whatever.
Oh by the way, I was very pleased with Audrey Hepburn’s garderobe this time (like always, actually, but this time she really stood out). She has that incredibly slim waist that looks absolutely splendid in dresses. She even looks good in leggings! Aaah *___*
It was pretty annoying to write this post while listening to my mother phoning, so sorry for the, err, lack of content. Just a little side note on the “schedule”:
There is
* Breakfast at Tiffany’s
* The Children’s Hour and
* War and Piece
from my little REC-list left. Aside from these, I also want to watch “Charade”, which looks pretty interesting.
We will most probably begin with “The Children’s Hour”, because it is HARD YURI, even though they have the other movies at our videotheque.
PS. There is a Lubitsch special at the Babylon movie theater in Berlin. Maybe we will go and watch “Ninotschka” and/or “To Be Or Not To Be”. *_*
