Pygmalion 1938 - "Not bloody likely - I'm going in a taxi"
 |
||
It must have been shocking to hear the b word in the more respectable era of the 1930s. Leslie Howard is quite sinister and misanthropic in this movie and Wendy Hiller is hilarious as the cockney girl trying to become a lady. This is the classic speech where she tries to sound posh but just ends up using a posh voice and common vocabulary to regale the vicar's tea party with tales of her dissolute family life:"It was them who pinched it what done her in"...

Very funny clip. Better than My Fair Lady. Had me in hysterics the first time I saw it.

This is one of my favourite films! Eliza is great, Pickering's so kind, and naturally Higgins is unbelievably arrogant, intelligent and a singular character! Pygmalion, in my opinion, is far better than My Fair Lady - Rex Harrison freaks me out. But I didn't like the ending of Pygmalion - they appealed to the audience with a romantic ending instead of using the original ending of the play.But yeah, Leslie Howard is cute :)

Yes but I haven't got the time or bandwidth to upload it - it would require about twelve uploads. So sorry!

Brilliant...Freddie was such a moron. He's like one of the Upper Class Twits from Monty Python. Great story (though I've yet to see the film)

i didn't mean any negative thing!!! I love him but it is so funny, that he wasn't really a real-birn Englishman, although many people consider him as a real English gentleman. i love him and his talent: he is the only actor from that era whose films I always watch..
