1. A good story never dies: the original Pygmalion has since been updated in the hit movie Pretty Woman (1990) starring Richard Gere and Julia Roberts.

好故事绝不会被遗忘：《Pygmalion》原剧之后又以现代的表演方式呈现在理察‧吉尔和朱莉娅‧罗伯兹主演的卖座电影《麻雀变凤凰》(1990)中。

2. The name comes from the play by George Bernard Shaw Pygmalion, and the quote here is "The difference between a lady and a flower girl is not how she behaves but how she's treated.

这个名字来源于一出戏剧,萧伯纳写的《卖花女》,我引用里面的一句话,“淑女与卖花女之间的区别,并不在于她的举止，而在于别人是否待她如淑女。

3. If this story sounds familiar, it should: Pygmalion was later filmed winning an Oscar for Shaw and later again transformed into the highly popular Broadway musical My Fair Lady (1956).

如果这故事听来耳熟，那并不奇怪：《Pygmalion》稍后被拍成电影为萧赢得了一座奥斯卡奖；后来又被改编成极受欢迎的百老汇音乐剧“真善美”(1956)。
