Directed by George Cukor, the film depicts arrogant phonetics professor Henry Higgins as he wagers that he can take flower girl Eliza Doolittle and turn her Cockney accent into a proper English one, thereby making her presentable in high society of Edwardian London.
The film won eight Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best Director.
