 great October 17, 2008
This is one of the great movie musicals. I received it in good condition and on time.
Two thumbs way up October 15, 2008
This has always been a family favorite. I loved it as a little girl and now that we have the dvd my family can continue to enjoy it. Wonderfully fun.
 Lovely October 5, 2008
I like this as a classic musical. The songs fit well with the dialogue and story. The costumes are incredible. This has always been a favorite remake of Pygmalion set to music.
Fabulous movie September 24, 2008
Absolutely beautiful. Rex Harrison steals the show. "Why can't a woman be more like a man?" Indeed.

Years ago I saw the original Broadway stage version with Rex Harrison and Julie Andrews. This film version is more complex, with more in-depth characterization, and is impeccably filmed with many imaginative and original touches. Audrey Hepburn was an attractive Liza, but her singing was done by Marnie Nixon, and her cockney speech at the very beginning of the movie was needlessly incomprehensible. It was a classic Hollywood mistake not to use Julie Andrews in the screen version.
Harrison is brilliant as Henry Higgins, and the supporting cast is first-rate. The musical numbers are well-structured with a flair and zest which shows George Cukor's taste and sensibilities. The movie deservedly won eight Oscars.
The widescreen, letter-box version I found annoying as I usually do. The movie's sumptuous sets seemed to lose out by this process.
The movie is enlightening about the British class system which persists to this day. Higgin's mansion is artfully rendered, and the scenes in which the servants sing are captivating.
This film captures the spirit, the style, and the genius of the musical and provides us with an archival record of the show.
