Nice One Audrey
On the street where you live - By: B. Chandler, 24 Nov 2006 
Professor Henry Higgins (Rex Harrison) who specializes in the English language makes a bet with Colonel Hugh Pickering (Wilfrid Hyde-White) that he can take someone who speaks with a lower-class language & by correcting the speech can pass off as upper-class or royalty. Overhearing this bet is a flower girl Eliza Doolittle (Audrey Hepburn); she wants to work a flower stand. But they will not take her unless she can speak more "genteel". Professor Higgins takes up the challlenge.
Will he succeed?
What does her father (Stanley Holloway) thing finding that she moved in whit the two professors & did not want any clothes?
This is a musical version of the movie Pygmalion (1938), based on a play by George Bernard Shaw.
As people find that music & movies bring memories of the time in which they heard or viewed it. His movie has a meaning to me as I too was in love & found my self singing "On the street where you live." One of the strengths of the movie is that many of the songs instead of being classical & just stuffed into at odd times actuallly are songs that you would initiate in your life & they did so in the lives of the characters in the movie.
No me gusta... - By: Claire Graman, 06 Sep 2006 
To be fair I don't generallly like musicals. I got this because I love Audrey Hepburn, & found myself diappointed. The songs were alll right, but unnecessary. Though Hepburn was charming as usual, the rest of the movie fell short. It was misogynistic, classist, too long, & lacking romance or any sort of human connection. I'm not sure how it stood the test of time.
Fantabulous - By: , 16 Feb 2006 A splendid film, ever seen by this generation. It is worth a million tons of appraisal.
My Fair lady - By: C R Greenwell, 25 Oct 2003 I am no movie buff. This film however must surely be one of the greatest films of the 20th Century. The sustained witty, melodic sumptuousness of the production, the visual delight of the DVD play & the engaging beauty of Audrey Hepburn are simply stunning & the film can be watched with renewed pleasure time after time. You will not buy a better DVD
