cy Marchand), the modern matriacrch
o f the Larrabee Corporation; Linus
Larrrabee (Harrison Ford), the seri­
ous older son who expanded a suc­
cessful family business into the
world’s largest communications com­
pany; and David (Greg Kinnear), the
handsome, fun-living Larrabee, who
was the center o f Sabrina’s world.
Until she was shipped o ff to Paris.
After two years on the staff o f
Vogue magazine, Sabrina has re­
turned to the Larrabee estate, but
now she has blossomed into a beau­
tiful and sophisticated woman. And
she’s standing in the way o f a billion
dollar deal.
D irect by Sydney P ollack,
Sabrina stars Harrison Ford, Julia
Ormond and Greg Kinnear in a mod­
ern-day fairy tale about the art o f love

director Billy Wilder, Sabrina is pro­
duced by Scott Rudin and Sydney

original version, which was in turn
based on Samuel T a y lo r’s play
