Great acting, I had read the play years ago for a class. Good romantic comedy.
Absolutely amazing adaptation of the play. It had me howling with laughter constantly, and I would entirely recommend it.
I might’ve called this a perfect adaptation if they’d kept Shaw’s original ending. Hate this ending. Otherwise, very well done.
As a big fan of musicals and My Fair Lady, I enjoyed finally seeing Pygmalion. Great story/characters even without a big musical production.
Smart, charming, funny, and incredibly well acted. One of those older movies that still feels lively and easy to enjoy.
Though weakened by the ending, it's still sharply written and supremely acted by both leads.
I honestly preferred my fair lady however this was not bad at all and I enjoyed the performances
I’ve never really cared for the lead performances in My Fair Lady despite adoring that film. I think the actors are better cast here.
Hands down best adaptation. Makes sense since Shaw was directly involved. Hiller dominates every scene she's in.
It’s a great story, the Shaw play on which ‘My Fair Lady’ was based, and it’s an excellent filmed version.
