My Fair Lady 1964

7.51

Aikamme suurimpia musiikkiklassikkoja Hollywoodista. My Fair Lady perustuu tunnettuun Pygmalion -teemaan. Kielitieteilijä Higgins tapaa cockneyn murteella puhuvan kukkamyyjän Lizan. Higgins päättää tehdä Lizasta hienon ladyn, joka puhuu hienostuneesti ja käyttäytyy hillitysti. Lizan etikettikoulutus on jännittävää ja hauskaa. Eräästä kohtauksesta, jossa Higgins opettaa Lizalle, että "the rain in Spain" äännetään "the rejn in Spejn" eikä "the rajn in Spajn" on tullut todellinen klassikko. My Fair Lady on kallis amerikkalainen suurelokuva, jossa on paljon kuuluisia filmitähtiä päärooleissa.

Sense and Sensibility

Sense and Sensibility 2008

7.51

Sense and Sensibility is a 2008 British television drama, based on Jane Austen's 1811 novel of the same name. The screenplay was written by Andrew Davies, who said that the aim of the series was to make viewers forget Ang Lee's 1995 film version. As such, this series was more overtly sexual than previous Austen adaptations, and Davies included scenes featuring a seduction and a duel that are suggested in Austen's novel but absent from the feature film. A story of two sisters attempting to find happiness in the tightly structured society of 18th century England. Elinor, disciplined, restrained and very conscious of the manners of the day, represents sense. Outspoken, impetuous, emotional Marianne represents sensibility.
