Пигмалион
Scenario Writer
Этот фильм - первая экранизация пьесы Бернарда Шоу о превращении вульгарной цветочницы Элизы Дулиттл в изысканную светскую даму под чутким руководством профессора фонетики Генри Хиггинса и полковника Пикеринга. Бернард Шоу написал свою пьесу под вдохновением древнегреческого мифа о скульпторе Пигмалионе, который создал статую Галатеи — девушки до того прекрасной, что он влюбился в нее и стал просить Афродиту оживить свое создание. Богиня любви вдохнула жизнь в Галатею, и Пигмалион женился на ней.

In 1931, Sir Malcolm Sargent – then a rising young conductor – acted as musical director for this first filmed musical version of Prosper Mérimée’s classic story of passion and fatal jealousy, Carmen. With a score based on Bizet’s opera, Gipsy Blood features celebrated American soprano Marguerite Namara as the capricious gypsy girl from the cigarette factory; her co-performers include Thomas Burke as Carmen’s tormented lover, Don José, and New Zealand-born baritone Lance Fairfax as his rival, the toreador Escamillo.
