Pygmalion Entry 2
Well, my prediction that Higgins would fall for Liza did not come true, but the second half of this play still managed to craft a good story. I liked the ending quite a lot, even though it didn't really clear anything up or give any of the characters conclusions. I like open endings, as they let me imagine what happened to the characters after the story ended, one of the best things about reading stories or watching movies, in my opinion. One thing I did not understand, however, was what the real point of the play was. Perhaps it would be more obvious if I saw it performed, but I never really saw a real message, other than perhaps a bit of a criticism of the class system and some veiled feminism. Both of these seemed like vague themes, but not enough to be a true meaning of the play.
