We’re in the home stretch of Musicals Month before the film holiday hits us hard and we go back to the classics with a crowd pleasing adaptation of a George Bernard Shaw novel for the musical stage. I do believe this is our first discussion of an Audrey Hepburn film. Hollywood was all about the turn of the century English doing song and dance back in the 60s. Between this, Mary Poppins and Oliver! It’s no wonder that generations of Americans thought of the English as dirty cockney that say “Garn” all obnoxious-like. There are much worse stereotypes for the English, I suppose. We’re talking George Cukor’s nicely crafted adaptation of “MY FAIR LADY” from 1964 starring Audrey Hepburn, Rex Harrison and several more. Can Professor Higgins win his bet and make some dirty street urchin presentable to royalty? When you get past the screeching there are some laughs and some fun characters. Also, some fantastic staging and costumes. Check it out: https://archive.org/details/my-fair-lady_202401
