of the TCM Big Screen Classics Series, in Time for the Film’s 55th Anniversary,
February 17 and 20 Only
WHAT: Eliza Doolittle (Academy Award® winner Audrey
Hepburn, Breakfast at Tiffany’s) and Professor Henry Higgins
(Academy Award winner Rex Harrison) match wits while singing and dancing
their way through one of the most visually magnificent and transcendent
musicals of all time in My Fair Lady. Remastered for the
ultimate visual and audio experience, the hit musical will return to movie

Winner of eight
Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor (Harrison), Best Director (George

Fair Lady continues to dazzle the eyes, ears and hearts of
audiences everywhere with its captivating story of a poor London flower girl,
Eliza Doolittle, who is plucked out of obscurity and remade into a glamorous
socialite. Based on the Broadway musical by Jay Lerner and Frederick
Loewe, My Fair Lady contains such indelible songs as “I Could
Have Danced All Night,” “The Rain in Spain,” “Wouldn’t It Be Loverly?” and “On
the Street Where You Live.”
