My Fair Lady, 1964
“Any ol dame will do.”
I watched this April, 2006
Plot Summary
Well, it’s a musical see, so the plot must flow from one song to another. Onery ol coot decides he can turn a cockney cussy into a lady with his techniques. He does so, but does not know how to handle it. Strange romance, but obviously it has stood the test of time.
What I Disliked
l I am not overly fond of turning Broadway successes into Hollywood successes, though this one seemed to work.
l Why did they make Henry Higgins so “old” looking? Seems to fit part of the plot, but not the other.
What I Liked
l Great music
l Audrey Hepburn always steals my heart.
Would I recommend it and to whom?
For those who like musicals, this is a must.
