My Fair Lady (1964)

In George Cukor's Best Picture-winning screen musical (from the Lerner & Loewe Broadway play of George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion):

• the character of arrogant linguistic professor Henry Higgins (Oscar-winning Rex Harrison) with tremendous style and wit as he both talked and sang his lines, especially in his first song: "Why Can't the English Learn to Speak"
• Cockney flower vendor Eliza Doolittle's (Audrey Hepburn) initial reaction to Higgins' statement that her birthplace was in "Lisson Grove": "I'm a good girl, I am!"
• Professor Higgins' wager with Colonel Pickering (Wilfrid Hyde-White): "Well, sir, in six months, I could pass her off as a duchess at an Embassy Ball" - he bet that he could transform Eliza from a disheveled flower seller to a well-dressed and refined lady with proper diction in only six months
• with her interest piqued in becoming a lady and leaving behind her untutored manners, Eliza sang and danced about her dreams in "Wouldn't It Be Loverly?"
• the screams of protest when Eliza was dragged upstairs to the bathroom by Higgins' maid Mrs. Pearce (Mona Washbourne) and forced to take a steaming hot bath ("You know, you can't be a nice girl inside if you're dirty outside")
• spiteful and hateful toward her harsh teacher Henry Higgins, Eliza vengefully sang: "Just You Wait" - a fantasy about her asking the King on Eliza Doolittle Day for Henry Higgins' head (and execution)
• the diction lessons in the laboratory, when Higgins delivered training to Eliza and laboriously forced her to repeat from a book the immortal words: "The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain" - and the joyous celebration when she finally made a real breakthrough, singing the duet with Higgins: "The Rain In Spain/I Think She's Got It"
• the Ascot Race Track scene when Eliza appeared dressed in a white gown and hat with an accent or splash of red - but her dignified English lapsed into colorful street language ("Done her in") - and it was humorously interpreted as the "new small talk" - but then during the second race, she excitedly shouted out as a faltering horse passed: "Come on, Dover! Move yer bloomin' arse!", causing other horrified patrons to faint or gasp
• the high-society ball scene of Eliza's coming out sequence in a beautiful white evening gown, looking like a princess; Eliza's successful attendance at the ball caused socialite Freddy Eynsford-Hill (Jeremy Brett) to become infatuated with Eliza (he danced with her), and afterwards, he sang a reprise of: "On the Street Where You Live"; Eliza responded frustratedly with: "Show Me" - needing to be shown demonstrative love instead of sappy words ("...Tell me no dreams filled with desire. If you're on fire, show me!...")

• the next morning, Higgins was baffled by Eliza's disappearance:: "Women are irrational, that's all there is to that! Their heads are full of cotton, hay, and rags! They're nothing but exasperating, irritating, vacillating, calculating, agitating, maddening and infuriating hags" - Higgins sang-talked to Pickering: "Why Can't A Woman" - wondering why women didn't have the same "honest, so thoroughly square, eternally noble, historically fair...so pleasant, so easy to please...so friendly, good-natured and kind...so decent" qualities that men have
• Eliza's telling-off and spiteful rejection of Higgins - she surprised him with her decision to marry Freddy - after she had had enough of his bullying and big talk, in the song "Without You" ("There'll be spring every year without you. England still will be here without you"); afterwards, when seriously thinking of letting Eliza go, Higgins begrudgingly acknowledged his love for her presence in "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face" while walking home: "I've grown accustomed to her face...She almost makes the day begin..."
• the film's concluding sequence, when Eliza suddenly reappeared in Higgins' study, and told him in her Cockney accent: ("I washed my face and hands before I come, I did"); and then he delivered the final, contrary, misogynistic closing line to her: "Eliza? Where the devil are my slippers?" as he leaned back and pushed his hat forward onto his forehead

The Ending: Higgins and Eliza Back Together
"I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face"	"I washed my face and hands before I come, I did"	"Eliza? Where the devil are my slippers?"
