Pygmalion review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 12/03/11
A Henry Higgins (Howard) is an upper class phonetics professo bets with Colonel Pickering (Scott Sunderland) that he can teach a lower-class girl Eliza Doolittle (Hiller) to speak proper English have proper etiquette and thus be taken for a lady. Numerous methods were applied to Eliza to transform into a classy lady in which the results were sensational since she was accepted as a princess in the Ambassador's Ball. Freddie Eynsford-Hill (David Tree) courts Eliza. Film had a witty screenplay, stunning performances from Hiller and Howard, which compliments. The aura of the movie reminded me All About Eve and Sunset Blvd. Pygmalion is a social satire filled with intellectual humor and a fitting end.
