Pygmalion

When I first watch this movie, I really like it. it was a movie about a flower girl whose from the lower class society who transform herself to mingle with the upper class society. Liza, the flower girl seems to challenge Henry Higgins, s professor to teach her how to speak standard English and how to become a lady. Henry took the challenge and did manage to teach her everything that she asks for. Through the process of teaching Liza, Henry grows fond of her and eventually falls for her. Luckily, Liza seems to love him back. As for me, the important message of the story is that when you learn a language, is does not mean you only learn the language. It also mean you learn the culture of the language. As we can see in the movie, Liza feels awkward and out of place when she visited her old neighbourhood. Now that she is a lady, she feels that she doesn’t belong there anymore.
