Synopsis

Stuck-up language professor Henry Higgins makes a bet that he can take Eliza and turn her from a vulgar working class girl into a high society lady, by teaching her how to speak correctly and act properly. As they work together, the two start to fall for each other - but there are plenty of obstacles standing in the way of true love. The marvellous, eternally popular soundtrack features such classics as "Get Me To The Church On Time" and "I Could Have Danced All Night".
