Sabrina There is nothing like a good old-fashioned love triangle to inspire love, jealousy and makeovers. Sabrina Fairchild (rightly named) played by Audrey Hepburn is the young, painfully shy, and adorably awkward daughter of a chauffeur. She is in love with a man who doesn't know she exists due to her lowly societal status. That is until she returns from Paris two years later as a gorgeous, sophisticated and elegantly dressed woman. She ends up falling for her previous desire's brother and drama, comedy and perfectly coiffed hairstyles ensue. There is no actual makeover montage in this movie per se, but the transformation from awkward teen to breathtaking beauty is magical. And c'mon, any makeover that ends up with two people sailing away together on a boat to Paris, you just have to love.
I'm not sure I like the premise of these "makeover" movies Total Beauty is featuring. Maybe the nerdy girl was happier in jeans and flannel shirts. You are promoting the stereotypical philosophy that somehow, pretty and well-dressed and well-coiffed go along with fitting in and happiness. IMO, this detracts from individualism and minimizes those who choose to march to the beat of a different drummer. A woman's worth shouldn't be measured in terms of the clothes she wears, but on her inner beauty.
