Audrey Hepburn & Rex Harrison - At Mrs. Higgins's House - My Fair Lady

[@eviannafaye5269]

I just adore Mrs Higgins. A no-nonsense mother.

[@daviddempsay4930]

Mrs. Higgins' character is wonderfully presented with her very first line, when she sees her son as Ascot, "Why Henry, what a disagreeable surprise!"

“I want a little kindness.” That’s it. The eternal message from women to men - most of whom don’t take it seriously. If they only knew how powerful that little kindness could be.

[@ioup5875]

Yes,men say they love women, but they don't know the kindness between two human beings, the sweet little kindness.

[@calvinbethea3369]

When I was in high school reading Pygmalion we watched this film as a treat. I always confused the type of love this scene represented as romantic. Eliza wanted validation, Higgins prided himself on his education and methods, they were the only things he held in high regard. Eliza became the physical embodiment of that teaching and he still refused to respect or value her because as he said he treated everyone the same. He only saw value in himself. Seeing and treating Eliza meant he had to acknowledge the value of others by seeing aspects of himself in them. I’m sure that shook his world. 36 years out of school and I’m willingly writing an “English paper.” Life is strange.

[@DiegoBosch90]

there is not any kind of romance between both, I really cant udnerstand most of the people dont see it, maybe cause they think all super productions must include this no sense...in this scene they just deny this kind of feeligns...they said "friendly", cmon... how can it be expressed clearer than that? I could have danced all night is not about the love for him (which doesnt exist) but a celebration of the language skills she gained, and also that she gained the respect of the professor who was cold and treated her.

[@marcopolo9446]

Eliza has him by the total and absolute balls and since he's never been in love, him and his 140 + IQ doesn't realize it. Jack Nicholson in "As good as it gets" was created after this movie. Mr Udall can't live without Carol the waitress and he doesn't know why.

[@lauriebriggs9705]

He’s a total narcissist.

[@nathaniellampman2052]

When Eliza is telling Ms. Higgins about throwing his slippers at his son she said I would have thrown the fire irons at him. I think it's funny Ms Higgins reaction about throwing things at her son and not thinking it was wrong. At the end of Ms higgins she says bravo Eliza for walking out on him. LOL

Best part of the musical! When his mother gives Eliza permission to throw her ill-behaving son out of the house!

[@jasminealex7212]

Higgins has always been an ass to her and I believed that Eliza was right to be angry. The girl had tried her hardest to look elegant, sound elegant, and act elegant and tried her hardest to please Pickering who treated her with the highest respect and Higgins who treated her like a guttersnype. Even after she succeeded, they didn’t even acknowledge her achievements and when Eliza pointed it out, he just acted like a total ass and took credit and then when she left, tried to force her to live with him. If I were a director and I wanted to create a remake, I’d keep everything except for her coming back to him. In fact, I want Higgins to apologize and beg on his knees for her

[@junnipur6360]

This movie is based on a book, and in the book that is exactly how it goes! The move creators were so sexist, and they thought the public was just as sexist. They changed it. You can look it up if you like.

La mejor película que vi My Fair Lady. PIGMALION .GRANDIOSA Y EL MEJOR INGLÉS QUE ESCUCHÉ .

[@shawncarroll5255]

Saying Sweeney Todd had a sad ending is like calling Hiroshima a big explosion - while both statements are technically correct, I believe that would also be a textbook case of "understatement." A quintessential British trait, at least to us Colonials across the sea. BTW having had a controlling, fault finding father who couldn't acknowledge any of his children's ability to succeed in life without him, I have always found the ending of My Fair Lady disturbing. I remember it's first broadcast on television as a kid, and adored it otherwise. I still have it on Laser Disc. I had always avoided Pygmalion because of the ending of My Fair Lady, so now I will have to catch the next production that comes to our River City. My suggestion for the ending is a touch different. Have him fall asleep listening to her recording, hat to the audience, gradually plunging into total darkness after the dust-up at his mothers. Then the recording changes to a different one, and you hear the door open and slam shut. It's Pickering, he walks up to the chair where you still see just Higgins hat. He reaches over and turns down the record player, and then reaches into the chair and shakes who we presume is Higgins awake. It is, and he looks a little bit rumpled and apologizes to Pickering for falling asleep. He looks down and his lapel flower is broken. He makes some comment about blast it, he doesn't have any time to replace it. Pickering tells him there's a new flower shop near the Opera itself. Cut to them stepping out of the taxi, and going into into the flower shop. There's a shop girl, and when Pickering asks for a lapel flower, she explains because of the opera they are completely out. Higgins starts to raise his voice and complain. She runs to the back to fetch owner of the establishment, and Higgins walks up to the large service counter and goes to break a rose off of a beautiful red rose boquet. He reaches and as his hand reaches out, and you here a gentle "Let me" and Eliza's hand stops his. She takes a flower out of her own corsage and arranges it on his lapel. Higgins asks how much with a voice more like the tentative version of an ending Higgins. She smiles, says I can't charge you for a flower I've already used. Pickering pulls out his watch and says the opera starting in minutes, and they step out. Pickering goes to get into the cab, and Higgins standing on the sidewalk tells him I need a breath fresh air. You go on without me. He starts walking along a fence line, singing "I grew accustomed to her face". As the scene ends with him either walking to the exit, or to the front, and as he sings the last phrases, he takes out his notebook, a small spotlight or close-up centers on it and as he finally finishes "... Accustomed...to her...face". He smiles a melancholy smile and places the flower she pinned on his lapel in the middle of the book closing it as the stage goes black.

[@VWYL900802]

There is one thing that is right in this scene. Colonel Pickering. When she said that Colonel Pickering treated her like a lady regardless of her being a flower girl or a duchess, because a lady is a lady when she is being treated like a lady, regardless of how she behaves. When she’s being treated like a lady, you’re giving her a chance without expectations, to return the same respect as everyone else.

[@bwtawny]

I love the music, sets, costumes, and Audrey Hepburn. I absolutely hate the sexist attitude of the story. Eliza achieved so much but was constantly belittled and taken for granted. This was not a love story but a story of abuse with comedy overtones. She should have left them all. They did not deserve her.

[@DiegoBosch90]

exactly finally somebody who saw it...most of people saw a romance between both? wtf...are we seeing the same film, she clearly denies it and he also denies it...its paternalistic feelings to her... thats why he misses her, "her creation", more like a daughter or a friend...really I cant believe how people find a romance relation... not even I could have danced is a love song lol... how can it be if she denied this type of feelings.

[@marcopolo9446]

Harry Nielson's song best describes Henry's situation: "I can't live if living is without you" Eliza has him by the total and absolute balls and since he's never been in love, him and his 140 + IQ doesn't realize it. Jack Nicholson in "As good as it gets" was created after this movie. Mr Udall can't live without Carol the waitress and he doesn't know why. Mrs Higgins, Henry's mom has already accepted Eliza as her daughter in law. In her brilliant mind she has foreseen this game of chess type of love through and Henry isn't in check, he's in check mate.

[@VWYL900802]

You can tell from the dialogue that Higgins and Eliza had an abusive relationship, both physical and emotional. There’s kicking and punching mentioned during the times of training, which wasn’t even aired (if so, the movie would be longer than it already was). Also, there’s jewelry that Higgins bought for her and Freddie pining over her. When highs and lows are so extreme, it’s abuse. Higgins treats her like an object, she wants him to treat her more like a human. But he won’t. He clearly doesn’t think he did anything wrong. The system (like his servants) condones him to be misogynistic and entitled, like how he treats his mother.

[@odysseusrex5908]

What has never quite made sense to me about this scene is that she starts off complaining about how both Higgins *and* Pickering had been boorish to her the night before, and then spends the rest of the scene talking about how well Pickering has always treated her. If he had always been so kind and well mannered towards her, then he should have been that way last night, yet he wasn't. I know Shaw wrote the original scenes in Pygmalion the same way, he should have given them more thought, or Lerner and Lowe should have improved on what he wrote.

[@samhayet4286]

I was always confused by that as well. Esp. Pickering's boorish behaviour that night... I guess Eliza gave him grace because she didn't love him like she loved Henry and she didn't want to burn *all* her bridges...
