My Fair Lady

"Slim Lady" is my favorite actress Hepburn's masterpiece. Before watching this film, I can hardly imagine that Hepburn, who is as noble and beautiful as a princess, can also act as a flower girl at the bottom of society. I don't know what she's talking about without reading the subtitles, and the rude manners made me stunned. Of course, after successful enlightenment, Hepburn's pretending princess image is still impeccable. Hehe, Hepburn is a natural princess. He doesn't like to teach this old man very much. He is arrogant and doesn't put women like creatures in his eyes. It's irritating. However, sometimes I feel that the professor is like an unreasonable and confused child. I don't know if I am in love with a girl, and I don't want to admit it. People can't help but punch him a few times to wake him up. Eli'za has been compelling to force herself to change her words and deeds, being coaxed by the professor to learn the so-called civilization, and in the end he finds that he doesn't know how to cherish the change of this man. The one I like is the song she sang when she left in anger and met a boy who had a crush on herself on the road: I don’t want any so-called sweet words, I know those things clearly, if you like it, just tell me and hug me... late at night It's not when you are talking, you should know what you are going to do... Then directly and frankly talk to your heart, I like her sincerity at this moment. Why do you want to pretend to be happy, why do you have to be reserved in front of others, why do you want to become unable to find yourself for a man? Watching her cleverly fend off the courtship of the little boys, singing her heart's song loudly, joyfully and joyfully. The final ending is naturally that the lovers finally come together. The only dissatisfaction is that since the old man finally realizes the importance of Eli'za, why should she take the initiative to come back and accept the implicit apology? Until the last scene, even though the old man admitted that he had lost his heart, he still looked like a male chauvinist who would not easily fall for it, and the girl actually followed his wishes. I really don’t know what the screenwriter is thinking about? Heh, Hepburn should stick to the end and teach the old man a deep lesson.

My Fair Lady quotes

  • Professor Henry Higgins: She's an owl, sickened by a few days of *my* sunshine.

  • Professor Henry Higgins: Mother!

    Mrs. Higgins: What is it, Henry? What's happened?

    Professor Henry Higgins: [quietly, bewildered] She's gone.

    Mrs. Higgins: Well, of course, dear, what did you expect?

    Professor Henry Higgins: What... what am I to do?

    Mrs. Higgins: Do without, I suppose.

    [pause]

    Professor Henry Higgins: And so I shall! If the Higgins oxygen burns up her little lungs, let her seek some stuffiness that suits her. She's an owl sickened by a few days of my sunshine. Very well, let her go, I can do without her. I can do without anyone. I have my own soul! My own spark of divine fire!

    [storms outs]

    Mrs. Higgins: Bravo, Eliza.
