pygmalion my fair lady
The play Pygmalion and My Fair Lady, the musical, are the same story. The only major difference between the two, is that My Fair Lady has songs added to the dialogue. I believe the musical version is more enjoyable because the music adds more feeling to the story. The opening scene is after an opera. The higher class people spill out into the streets. It is here that Eliza is selling her flowers. Eliza is a poor girl with a very thick accent. She is a respectable girl, which she insist throughout the movie, saying to Mr. Higgins, “I’m a good girl”. She’s had a hard life, her father being a drunk and therefore she and her mother had no money. It is hard for her to get a job because of her accent, so she resorts to selling flowers. She is always wishing for more out of life. Professor Higgins hears her talking and starts taking notes of her speech. Eliza assumes that she is in trouble and causes a commotion, professing that she did nothing wrong.
