A little insight about professors

I finally know why the show is called Pygmalion. The professor gave the flower girl a chance to be reborn, just like Pygmalion carved a statue of a woman and gave her life, but the professor's social status and knowledge made his machismo inflated, he did not understand love, despised love, He is afraid of love, and terrifies the interaction between people, so that when love comes, he will not know how to express it, and he will not look at her with the right eyes. I won't look at her equally, and I won't give her dignity, so I prefer Bernard Shaw's original ending. In the end, the flower girl didn't return to the professor. If I were a flower girl, I wouldn't return to such a low emotional intelligence person. Around

Why did Eliza come back at the end? I don't like this ending so much! Audrey Hepburn is still too beautiful, and every time he sings, he knows that he is lip-syncing. It's a good play. During the process of watching, I often wondered what would happen if Julie Andrews came to play, and I really wanted to watch the musical version of that year. Rex Harrison played very well, no wonder he can take the golden man, exuding a kind of macho mystery self-confidence from beginning to end, mean and unreasonable, and acting very well! The stage set is very gorgeous and beautiful, but at a glance it is a studio shot. When I think of the Lincoln Center revival I watched in 2019, the entire set was re-engraved from the movie, and it felt more suitable and better-looking when it was put on the stage.

Fortunately, it is rare to see such a vulgar character of Hepburn. I think it is not easy for her to practice such pronunciation. Men like elegant ladies. It is difficult to fall in love with vulgar flower girls. When that Spanish sentence or something appeared, I had an epiphany. It turns out that Blair's dream in GG is The rain in Spain here....

Professor Henry Higgins: By George, she's got it! By George, she's got it! Now once again, where does it rain?
Eliza Doolittle: [sings] On the plain, on the plain.
Professor Henry Higgins: And where's that soggy plain?
Eliza Doolittle: [sings] In Spain, in Spain!
