Popcorn Culture - Throwback Tuesday: My Fair Lady

Wouldn't it be loverly? That's one of the central questions of the thoroughly loverly My Fair Lady, which tells a version of George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion, in the form of Eliza Dolittle and Henry Higgins and their sparkling back and forths. Starring Audrey Hepburn and Rex Harrison (reprising his role from the Broadway musical), and directed by George Cukor, this film has long been lauded as one of the greatest films and musicals. In this episode, we look back 57 years to see how My Fair Lady has stood the test of time.
