Transcript of Featured Review

Hi I'm Megan and I wanted to tell you about My Fair Lady. This is a really good musical starring Audrey Hepburn. She does an absolutely amazing job bringing this character to life. This is originally a Broadway play and it starred Julie Andrews. When they did the film they opted to do Audrey Hepburn but Julie Andrews still does all of the singing for the film. They just dubbed it over Audrey Hepburn. It's an absolutely breathtaking portrayal of the film I mean of the play and film version. I really really love it. Eliza and Henry Higgins are absolutely amazing together. The chemistry between the actors is great. The cinematography is beautiful as are the musical numbers. It's just so intricately done. The detail that goes into these huge musical scenes is absolutely amazing and I fell in love with it when I saw it as a child and love it even more as an adult. So I had to pick it up for my film collection and I recommend that you do too (Video playing).

Summary

Hollywood's legendary "woman's director," George Cukor ( The Women , The Philadelphia Story ), transformed Audrey Hepburn into street-urchin-turned-proper-lady Eliza Doolittle in this film version of the Lerner and Loewe musical. Based on George Bernard Shaw's play Pygmalion , My Fair Lady stars Rex Harrison as linguist Henry Higgins (Harrison also played the role, opposite Julie Andrews, on stage), who draws Eliza into a social experiment that works almost too well. The letterbox edition of this film on video certainly pays tribute to the pageantry of Cukor's set, but it also underscores a certain visual stiffness that can slow viewer enthusiasm just a tad. But it's really star wattage that keeps this film exciting, that and such great songs as "On the Street Where You Live" and "I Could Have Danced All Night." Actor Jeremy Brett, who gained a huge following later in life portraying Sherlock Holmes, is quite electric as Eliza's determined suitor. --Tom Keogh
