Gloriously witty adaptation of the Broadway musical about Professor Henry Higgins,who takes a bet from Colonel Pickering that he can transform unrefined,dirty Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle into a lady,and fool everyone into thinking she really is one,too!He does,and thus young aristocrat Freddy Eynsford-Hill falls madly in love with her.But when Higgins takes all the credit and forgets to acknowledge her efforts,Eliza angrily leaves him for Freddy,and suddenly Higgins realizes he's grown accustomed to her face and can't really live without it.
I have read in a great many places that Henry Higgins is a misogynist.It has also been said that the film is a misogynist's fairy tale.Anyone saying this has clearly not watched this film too closely.
First,Higgins is not a misogynist.A misogynist hates women.What Higgins is,in reality,is a misanthrope.A misanthrope basically dislikes and distrusts everyone!Pickering,Eliza's father,his own mother-everyone receives his rather cynical disdain.Some of the minor characters come off being treated worse than the principals do.It's simply more noticeable with Eliza because it's more frequent,it's newer with Eliza because the other principal characters have known Higgins longer and thus take it in stride.The myth that Higgins is a misogynist is perpetuated by the song,"Why Can't A Woman Be More Like a Man?".
Second,it can hardly be called a misogynist's fairy tale.If that were the case,I doubt Alfred Doolittle would have cause to sing,"Get Me To the Church On Time",as he'd hardly be getting married.His life is just as "ruined" as Eliza's by his encounters with Higgins,just as altered as her life has been.
This is a great musical,a good movie and it was even better as the original play by Shaw.Well worth seeing.Recommended.
