2. My Fair Lady - AFI Catalog - American Film Institute
My Fair Lady was adapted from the stage musical of the same name, which was based on the George Bernard Shaw play, Pygmalion (1914).
Phonetics professor Henry Higgins gets involved in an altercation with Cockney flowergirl Eliza Doolittle as he is taking notes on her accent outside of London's Covent Garden in 1912. Colonel Pickering, another language enthusiast, quiets the argument, and Higgins boasts to him that after training Eliza for 3 months he could pass her off as a duchess. The next day Eliza arrives at Higgins' house, prepared to pay for diction lessons so that she may realize her dream of obtaining a position in a shop. With Pickering's help, Higgins begins a complete transformation of Eliza. Her first public appearance at the Ascot horseraces is a dubious success. A few months later, Eliza is a greater success at the season's biggest social event. After the affair, Higgins and Pickering congratulate each other on Eliza's transformation, completely ignoring her and her part in the process. She leaves Higgins' house in anger. Finding her father preparing to marry, Eliza seeks refuge with Higgins' mother. S

Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle is selling her flowers to theater goers when she is warned by friends that a policeman is writing down everything she says. After confronting the man, she learns that he is not a policeman, but Professor Henry Higgins, a phonetics scholar. As it turns out, one of the theater goers is Colonel Pickering, a fellow scholar. Higgins lectures the group that their speech pattern is the only thing separating them from the upper classes in England and that he could pass off a poor flower girl like Eliza as a princess with a mere six months of training. The next day, Eliza arrives at Higgins' home, offering to pay for speech lessons. Pickering challenges Higgins to make good on his boast and Higgins takes the bet. While at first hesitant about Higgins' intentions, Eliza agrees to move into the professor's home and begins her intensive instruction. Her father, dustman Alfred Doolittle, comes to Higgins' home, seeking a financial agreement with the profes

At the end of George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion, Eliza has come into her own, emerging as a real woman. The question is what, exactly, that means. To the author, I contend, the intention was that she has become an independent being, free of Higgins's influence, ready to find her own destiny. To many actors, critics, and audiences since the play was first performed, it's meant that she has become a worthy partner for Higgins; finally his equal, the two are now able to marry. The play's history, from this beginning, is one of failed attempts by Shaw to get people to accept his intended theme, or at least some version of it. In my opinion, it may be possible for this aim to be achieved now, and the result would be an empowering play, unlike the film versions (and many stage versions) produced until now.
