Synopsis
Ever since the 1914 production of George Bernard Shaw's play Pygmalion (based on Greek myth), the story of Eliza Doolittle's transformation from Cockney flower girl to society lady has fascinated readers and audiences. And of all the versions, none has been more popular than the 1964 movie musical My Fair Lady, starring Audrey Hepburn and Rex Harrison. As the stage musical starring former EastEnder Martine McCutcheon prepares for opening night, this film celebrates the phenomenon that is My Fair Lady.
