Pros: Great dancing and music. Cons: Really bad dialogue. shmaltzy.
When Lerner and Loewe changed George Bernard Shaw's Pygmailion into their musical My Fair Lady they kept much of the original dialogue. This was a good move on their part. One doesn't appreciate how good a move it was, however, until one...
