Some thoughts on the role of Sabina

I almost fell into an online scolding war two days ago, the subject of which was "Audrey Hepburn's Acting Skills". Someone mentioned that she has a low IQ in "The Match of Dragon and Phoenix". First of all, I have no intention of delving into your performance skills or something (but I believe that several Oscars and Amy are not water), but just related to the recently watched "Dragon and Phoenix", by the way, I review Hepburn, and the role of Sabina One point of view: The
audience can interpret the character Sabina from multiple angles, too much has happened to her!
She had a crush on David for many years, and later changed her love after spending a few days with Linus. The speed shocked her herself. From this perspective, Sabina has the potential of a green tea table.
But she is also a victim, and the family has partnered to deceive relationships, and she is deeply caught in it without knowing it. The audience is easily moved by the image of Sabina's unscheming and innocent girl, which is also the most consistent and most revealing aspect of Hepburn's image.
Looking deeper, Sabina has always insisted on her feelings, ignoring all class identities, and has the consciousness of resisting authority. Regardless of whether the directors consciously or not, she has the shadow of the independent thinking of early feminists.
So, although Hepburn played Sabina as a pure and even stupid character, not as bright as a feminist pioneer, at least at the very least, she did not act as a green tea watch.
(In other words, quite satisfactory, at least not annoying the audience)

    1. It may be that the culture and aesthetics are really different. The part when the Bao family went to the tennis court with champagne was like an old hooligan, both in behavior and appearance. The latter is slightly better, but I don't know how Hepburn fell in love with this kind of person. 2. Hepburn's part-time job is very beautiful, and the temperament is different before and after the performance. Movies under the big star system also have great advantages! Several paragraphs are so beautiful! 3. The speed of the plot entering the main topic is a little slow, and the plot behind is not too novel, but the classic method is used skillfully and correctly, which is reassuring and comfortable. Focus on the chemistry of the two actors and appreciate each passage. 4 is very imaginative, creating some small comedy spots, light and casual. Wilder's comedy is really good!

    One of Wilder's films is more general, mainly because the layout is relatively small. But the lines are still great. Hepburn is also quite suitable for the role, and it is not annoying to play such a silly girl at all; although the setting of Bogart's CEO's handsome man's plan is a bit of a second and moral judgment is a bit hehe, but he actually plays it well. Not dirty at all, which is the magic of this movie. In the end, I actually felt sympathy for Huahua's younger son. What's going on? ! To be able to make this kind of nonsense film so beautifully, Old Wilder is too strong. The lines are also word-by-word, and they play all kinds of puns, which has always been very cool. The supporting roles are excellent. It would have been better to use more of the parody of French food. The part of Bogart on the boat was too imposing. This kind of star was born for this kind of pose, but the two did not match up a bit, but there was an inexplicable sense of mild joy.

Sabrina quotes

  • Baron St. Fontanel: A woman happily in love, she burns the soufflé. A woman unhappily in love, she forgets to turn on the oven.

  • The Professor: Bonjour, mesdames et monsiuers. Yesterday we have learned the correct way how to boil water. Today we will learn the correct way how to crack an egg. Voilà! An egg. Now, an egg is not a stone; it is not made of wood, it is a living thing. It has a heart. So when we crack it, we must not torment it. We must be merciful and execute it quickly, like with the guillotine.
