So, Pygmalion (2022) directed by Jozef Banyák presents a fresh take on that classic transformation trope. You've got Higgins, this phonetics professor, who makes a gamble to turn a street flower seller, Lisa, into high society. But it’s not just about the bet; it delves into the nuances of identity and gender roles. The tone is playful yet has this underlying tension that keeps you engaged. The pacing feels just right, balancing the comedic moments with those heavier themes. The performances are solid, especially the chemistry between the leads, which really brings the material to life. Plus, the practical effects used to represent their changing worlds add a nice touch of authenticity to the overall feel of the film.
