Revisiting "My Fair Lady"

Old-fashioned movies that focus so much on theatricality that occasionally there is a sense of irony in some freeze-frame footage

Favorite line "I'm going to have a drink on the street where she lives"

How to say it, probably can not completely say that human emotions do not communicate with each other, and occasionally there will be moments of emotional communication at this time of the world.

In fact, I really like this story. Although it is old-fashioned, it is still enough to move people's hearts.

It's a semi-open ending.

And, I have to say, this film is worthy of being used by the English teacher as a model to play in the classroom. There are various British pronunciations mixed in it, some pure and beautiful, some crude and ridiculous, but the whole film The choice of words and sentences is enough for non-native learners to study it.

The one thing I can't help but complain about is probably...why are you always singing? I really can't stand it [covers face]

My Fair Lady quotes

  • Professor Henry Higgins: Eliza, you are to stay here for the next six months, learning to speak beautifully, like a lady in a florist's shop. If you work hard and do as you're told, you shall sleep in a proper bedroom, have lots to eat, and money to buy chocolates and go for rides in taxis. But if you are naughty and idle, you shall sleep in the back kitchen amongst the black beetles, and be walloped by Mrs. Pearce with a broomstick. At the end of six months you will be taken to Buckingham Palace, in a carriage, beautifully dressed. If the king finds out you are not a lady, you will be taken to the Tower of London, where your head will be cut off as a warning to other presumptuous flower girls! But if you are not found out, you shall have a present... of, ah... seven and six to start life with as a lady in a shop. If you refuse this offer, you will be the most ungrateful, wicked girl, and the angels will weep for you.

  • Eliza Doolittle: [singing] Lots of chocolate for me to eat! / Lots of coal makin' lots of heat / Warm face, warm hands, warm feet / Oh, wouldn't it be loverly?
