My Fair Lady 1-Disc Box Set DVD

My Fair Lady adapts the celebrated stage musical based on the source Pygmalion play, following the Cockney flower seller Eliza Doolittle who reluctantly accepts the offer of phonetics professor Henry Higgins to transform her into someone who can pass for a duchess, with the resulting transformation testing both characters in unexpected ways. The CBS broadcast preserves the wider stage-musical tradition through television presentation, with each act stacking the central transformation stakes against the proper musical-theater character work that anchors the source.
