From the moment she went to school, what Eliza pursued was an equal relationship. She stubbornly had to pay for her tuition, naively thinking that she would get a little more respect. She never thought that she was just a bet or a plaything of a high-class figure.
In my opinion, Higgins has never loved Eliza. What he has shown is nothing more than jealousy, possessiveness and vanity. He gave Eliza five pounds to her father without knowing it, thinking that Eliza belonged to him; he couldn't see the difference between him and Freddy's attitude towards women, and talked about the ridiculous things like a kid who was robbed of toys. He treats Eliza very harshly, just to win a bet, oh, he won, he cheered and celebrated with his friends, and only noticed Eliza in the corner with his fists clenched when he left. He needs her to help him turn off the lights and remind him of what the maid should do the next morning; even when Eliza is unbearable and furious, he doesn't take it seriously, just treats it as a small temper that women hate; he thinks men are honest and upright. , Noble, troublesome women, love to pan Gaozhi, have all the shortcomings that he hates. I don't see the naivety that is unique to men, only a straight male cancer in capital. After looking at it for three hours, I couldn't find any good points in this person.
Finally, are Eliza and Higgins together? At least the last shot didn't tell us clearly. I don't understand. Since this version is to highlight the heroine, why did she return to Higgins' house in the end? If the final meaning of the movie version is to keep them together, then its label should not be "comedy." Unless Eliza Stockholm syndrome, they can't get along.
According to Bernard Shaw, it must be Eliza who resolutely left Higgins and became an independent and self-reliant woman. An upper-class linguist wants to transform a lower-class flower girl into an elegant noble lady for a bet, but he is a vulgar language, perverse behavior, extremely narcissistic, and no gentleman. , Isn't it ironic? However, the movie gave such an ending, which is really contrary to the original.
