My Fair Lady 1967

Reviews

The classic, multi Oscar-winning, Broadway adaptation about egotistical linguist Professor Henry Higgins (Harrison) who bets his friend, Colonel Hugh Pickering (Hyde-White), that he can transform Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle (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.

A wonderfully stylish and witty movie classic... Full review.

The New York Times

All things considered, it is the brilliance of Miss Hepburn as the Cockney waif who is transformed by Prof. Henry Higgins into an elegant female facade that gives an extra touch of subtle magic and individuality to the film... Full review.
