Synopsis by Sandra Brennan. In this comedy drama based on Shaw's play Pygmalion, and set in the 1800s, a wealthy playwright rescues a beautiful street urchin from the cruel city streets to use her as an authentic source of street language for his newest play. His whole family gets in an uproar when she comes to stay, but this does not deter him.
I recently watched and enjoyed GIRL FROM AVENUE A. As usual Jane Withers gives us 110% performance. As the over enthusiastic 16 year old orphan that worked in show business. This film can not but help remind you of FOX'S 1960s film MY FAIR LADY. The plots are similar both set in the 1900s, a poor girl taken home to a rich mans house.
