Private Notes
One of the results of George Bernard Shaw's long-standing feud with British over their misuse of the English language was "Pygmalion." Eliza Doolittle, the Cockney flower girl, yearns to work in a proper flower shop instead of peddling posies on the streets, and goes to the arrogant language expert, Professor Henry Higgins to learn how to speak. Higgins claims that he not only can improve her pronunciation, he can transform her into a real lady and even present her to society. Stars Julie Harris
