Movies and TvShows featuring "teacher-of-phonetics" theme.
In 1910s London, snobbish phonetics professor Henry Higgins agrees to a wager that he can make crude flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, presentable in high society. With the help of Colonel Pickering, Higgins takes on the challenge and starts training Eliza in speech and manners. As Eliza goes through the rigorous training, she starts to make progress and eventually speaks with an impeccable upper-class accent. However, Higgins' callous treatment and indifference towards her future prospects lead Eliza to walk out on him. But when Higgins realizes his feelings for Eliza, he tries to win her back.
