20 Most Oscar Nominated Movies Ever - Ranked From Worst To Best
12. My Fair Lady (1964)
Nominations: 12
Wins: 8 (Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction, Best Costume Design, Best Sound, Best Original Score)
My Fair Lady is based on George Bernard Shaw's play Pygmalion, which has spun a number of contemporary adaptations, perhaps most famously 1999's romantic comedy She's All That.
This Audrey Hepburn-starring classic is a mostly excellent musical that brings a wealth of dramatic substance to the table, especially when it comes to satirising London's class struggle.
The ending is undeniably weak and unsatisfying and it's rather on the overlong side, but when it charms, it really charms. Audrey Hepburn is just irresistible in this.
