	The shining world of my fair lady
This fall one of the most talked about screen p1ays opened at the Palace Theatre in Chicago. People are pouring into the theatre from the city, towns, and suburbs to see this magnificent theatrical production. This Warner Brothers motion picture presentation is the dazzling climax of the magic success story, My Fair Lady. The motion picture was personally produced by the president of Warner Brothers Studio, Mr. Jack Warner. It was directed by Mr. George Cukor, a distinguished veteran of the Hollywood scene. Lerner and Loewe team up again to make the screenplay and music of this $17,000,000 production unforgettably spectacular. The radiant talents of Audrey Hepburn and the magnetic personality of Rex Harrison are joined to give the screen an unforgettable Eliza Doolittle, who		starts in tatters and violets and ends in knowing splendor, and an equally unforgettable Henry Higgins, the inconsiderate professor but a most human man who really does grow accustomed to her face. No one can say it was one person who made this motion picture worthy of an Academy Award nomination. They all did it-the production crew of hundreds and the acting crew of thousands. The wonderful and haunting melodies written by Frederick Loewe will keep the greatness of the most romantic screen play ever produced always with us. All things told this spectacular screen play magnificently reflects the lyrical excitement of Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion. No one should miss seeing the shining world of My Fair Lady.
