This beloved adaptation of the Broadway stage hit stars Audrey Hepburn as Eliza Doolittle, a sassy, working-class London street vendor, and Rex Harrison as the elitist Professor Higgins, who attempts to turn Eliza into a sophisticated lady through proper tutoring. When the humble flower girl blossoms into the toast of London society, Higgins finds he may have a lesson or two to learn himself. (Paramount Home Entertainment)
