We’re about three quarters through Sabrina right now. Early on, Sarah noted: “Audrey Hepburn has the body of an eleven year old boy.” I believe I concur. I’ve decided I’m not overly fond of her or her movies. She just doesn’t do it for me. I think she’s a beauty of her time, not ours. She’s not on anyone’s Top Five Freebies list, if you know what I’m saying.
That is all.
That is all.

Although, right now, one advantage of being single is that EVERYONE is a freebie. That's really exciting, come to think of it. Think of all the beautiful people I could have.
Maybe I should make a 'No-bies' list instead. Comprised of all those lame-asses who I wouldn't even take donations to fuck.
;)
Courtney: 'No-bies'? Genius.
The sure-fire winner that night:
Sleepless in Seattle.
I am going to cite My Fair Lady as consummate evidence that she was a very fine and very under-appreciated actress. No, she didn't do her own singing. Neither did Natalie Wood. Yes, the cockney is phony, but it's rock solid, and, besides, that (or the inverse) is what the story is about.
But I'll concede that Wait Until Dark is an overrated clunker, in spite of a watertight plot, a believable performance as a blind woman, and Alan Arkin.
It's one of those movies that always makes me smile, no matter how bad my mood is.
Bill -- I did think Audrey was charming in "My Fair Lady", though.
Yes, but it is also well known that you like eleven year old boys.

Much like an unconcious eleven year old boy?
Breakfast at Tiffany's* - I didn't buy Audrey Heburn in that role for a second. It did, however, give me a big fat man crush on a young George Peppard.
Sabrina - Sarah nailed it. There was nothing remotely redeeming or appealing about William Holden's character.
My Fair Lady - Haven't seen it, but I'll need a little Hepburn break before I get to that one.
*And can't we all admit that Deep Blue Something ruined this movie for the entire world back in 1996?
Todd Pipes (vocals, bass) was fired from his job as an English teacher at a private Christian school when the song began to get local radio play and parents complained that their children were being taught by a rock & roller.
Ha!
