IMDb profile

Sabrina is a 1995 film adapted by Barbara Benedek and David Rayfiel, based on the 1954 screenplay, which in turn was based upon a play entitled Sabrina Fair. It was directed by Sydney Pollack, and stars Harrison Ford as Linus Larrabee, Julia Ormond as Sabrina and Greg Kinnear as David Larrabee. It also features Angie Dickinson, Richard Crenna, Nancy Marchand, Lauren Holly, J. Smith-Cameron, and French actress Fanny Ardant.

In the 1995 version, the protagonist, Linus Larrabee, is described by Sabrina (quoting what she has heard from others) as "the world's only living heart donor. He thinks that morals are paintings on walls and scruples are money in Russia."

[edit] Critical Reception

The film was one of Harrison Ford's few financial flops and took a critical drubbing, primarily because it suffered from inevitable comparisons to the 1954 version with its high-voltage trio of stars, Audrey Hepburn, Humphrey Bogart, and William Holden.
