I watched both versions in the same week and while this one is… okay, the Audrey Hepburn/Humphrey Bogart version is better. The performances are good, and they gently update and modernize the story, but if the other version didn’t exist this one would just be a fine-but-forgetable romantic comedy.

Oddly enough, they’re both period films now. I was in middle school when the remake was made, and I kept wincing at the clothes and hairstyles…
