Additional InformationA priceless classic, MY FAIR LADY has become one of the most popular musicals of all time. Based on George Bernard Shaw's 1913 play PYGMALION, the film swept the Academy Awards. Cecil Beaton's lavish sets and costumes and Lerner and Loewe's winning score became the background for George Cukor's striking mix of styles that ranged from the fantastic to the abstract in his telling of the tale of a waif who's educated into being a lady. Egotistical linguist Professor Henry Higgins (Oscar-winning Rex Harrison) bets his friend, Colonel Hugh Pickering (Wilfrid Hyde-White), that he can transform Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle (Audrey Hepburn) in time for an important society ball. His gamble could pay off--but the spirited Eliza is more of a handful than the Professor could have predicted. As she slowly becomes more refined, and less reliant upon him, Higgins realizes, to his confusion, that he can't live without her. The film was nominated for 12 Oscars and won eight, including Best Picture and Director.
I've watched this film so many times and never get bored of it it is so entertaining I would recommend any one to watch this film. It will give you a fantastic. Boost. So put on the kettle get the chocolate biscuits out. And look forward to some fantastic. Entertainment
The quality of the DVD was perfect which was important to me since I had searched everywhere for the DVD as a gift for my mother. We already know the film and love Audrey's heart warming acting, along with her jaw dropping dresses.
I have known this film for many years an all time favourite perfect evening glass of wine a few nibbles excellent entertainment from every one
