Thanks for your analysis, Laura. You're abso-bloomin'-lutely wonderful to share those ''Loverly'' posts about ''Pygmalion.''
You might be interested to know that Turner Classic Movies will be re-examining ''My Fair Lady'' on its ''Reframed'' series.
According to the Associated Press: ''During the “My Fair Lady” conversation on March 25, [the TCM hosts] talk about why the film adaptation has a less feminist ending than the stage play, and Henry Higgins’ physical and psychological abuse of Eliza Dolittle. Not feeding her and stuffing marbles in her mouth are played for cute laughs in the film. Is it a commentary on misogyny or just plain misogyny?'' |
