Tone changes lives

The biggest puzzle is, from the village girl to the celebrity, what changed Eliza?
Develop the correct accent and elegant demeanor, is that enough to make your self-awareness awaken? Can you become eloquent and eloquent, refuting linguistics professors like a mother?
Although it is said that external etiquette has a edifying effect on the heart, but disposition and intelligence have transformed into such a new look, does this still have basic personality identity?
Of course, it can be said that the script is precisely questioning the elegant standards of the so-called high society behind it, but how did Eliza learn the spirituality and reasoning displayed by her "after awakening" from her instrumental training? And this kind of spirituality and reason is exactly what we hope to praise for the "shaved women at the bottom".
Of course you can answer, isn't this acting? Who is more serious with you about Emile?
But to me, this is clearly an important question of life and world outlook.

Man is form, woman is matter. Men are rational, women are emotional.
In Greek mythology, Pygmalion was fascinated and fascinated by the beauty he carved. Later, the statue of the beautiful woman turned into a real person and fell in love with him.
A happy Greek, form and material are in harmony, and reason and sensibility are not in conflict.
Professor Higgins shaped Eliza, but he was hostile to sensibility. Eliza is leaving? Just let her go, I have my own divine fire.
But the professor was lost after all. Fortunately, he could honestly express his feelings.
At the end of the film, Eliza returned to the professor's house, and the professor returned to her lovely arrogance, lay down on the sofa, and asked: Where are my slippers?
The end, the story of Hollywood, the end of Hollywood. But what happens when Eliza comes back?

Looking forward to the "My Fair Lady" sequel, "The Days Eliza Comes Back".

    It's too verbose... some of the shots are pretty good, and the lines are okay. But the story is so powerless and empty.

My Fair Lady quotes

  • [last lines]

    Professor Henry Higgins: Eliza? Where the devil are my slippers?

  • Professor Henry Higgins: You might marry, you know. You see, Eliza, all men are not confirmed old bachelors like myself and the Colonel. Most men are the marrying sort, poor devils. And you're not bad-looking; you're really quite a pleasure to look at sometimes. Not now, of course, when you've been crying, you look like the very devil; but when you're all right, and quite yourself, you're what I would call... attractive.
