Synopsis Cranky Professor Henry Higgins (Leslie Howard) takes a bet that he can turn Cockney guttersnipe Eliza Doolittle (Wendy Hiller) into a "proper lady" in a mere six months in this delightful comedy of bad manners based on the play by George Bernard Shaw. This Academy Award-winning inspiration for Lerner and Loewe's My Fair Lady was directed by Anthony Asquith and star Howard, edited by David Lean, and scripted by Shaw himself. Criterion presents Pygmalion in a beautifully restored digital transfer.

Empire Review PYGMALION - 2.25 out of 5  (9/26/2002) Leslie Howard was one of the big screen's early great stars and he was savvy enough to not only star in the first film version of George Bernard Shaw's PYGMALION (1938), but he co-directed with Anthony Asquith! The film was remade as the big-screen 70mm hit adaptation of the hit stage musical MY FAIR LADY by George Cukor in 1964, but this version is still a cut above even that one. Howard is the arrogant Henry Higgins, an expert on diction and other matters of the voice and accents. When h   more >>
