Two biographies in one If you're going into this book expecting a comprehensive look into Hepburn and Holden's love affair then you must not know much about them. Their affair was brief and at the beginning of Hepburn's career, not nearly enough material for a whole book. What you get. "but it would never be like it was when they filmed Sabrina" according to Jennifer Thompson-Thalasinos. This book was really two biographies in oneone on Audrey Hepburn & one on William Holden. Occasionally their paths crossed, but it would never be like it was when they filmed Sabrina. This book also focused on when stars were under long term contract by a studio. Kymm said Disappointing.
