Professor Higgins was gay as hell

Higgins & Pickering didn't "live" together. Pickering was a guest in the Higgins household. When they meet, Pickering tells Higgins what hotel he's staying at and Higgins tells him he can pack his bags and move to his house. I always assumed that once the Liza issue was settled, Pickering would go back to India or wherever his permanent residence was.

"We're fighting for this woman's honor, which is more than she ever did."

Right... Thank you! Once he said "I like you this way..." to Eliza, that's where it becomes apparent that he loves her (in a romantic sense).

I also think Eliza was in part denial when she said the bit about "not wanting him to make love to her and she wanted the kindness and friendly relationship." Intitally, I think she wanted Higgins in any capacity (friend, mentor, etc.) but her actions show that she's clearly in love with him. Because of his nature throughout the film, she felt like couldn't have a romantic relationship with a woman, so she fought for the friendship. The course of the friendship changed the night of the ball and its afterwards. IMHO, Eliza became confused and wondered if she truly wanted Higgins as a friend or lover. The ending of the film clearly implies that Eliza and Higgins are in love with each other and will embark on a romantic relationship. MFL is different that Pygliaion sincer Lerner and Lowe believed in the Higgins and Eliza love story. Higgins and Eliza are soulmates who truly understand each other, regardless of class and age. ALL the songs that Eliza sang were about Higgins and her feelings for me. Though Eliza goes back to Higgins, it's Higgins who will need to say "I love you" first.

Yes. Because everyone knows that a guy watching a movie with a female is typical gay behavior.

Clown.

"So thats it? After twenty years, so long good luck?"
"I don't recall saying good luck"

I agree.

I guess I just fine the whole conversation a little odd. I don't get why he is viewed as gay by anyone. Our society is so focused on sex that it seems no one can think about anything in terms other than sexual terms. I guess I just assumed when I saw the film as a young person that Eliza and Henry ended up together. Now that I am older it doesn't seem that cut and dry. I have always viewed writing as art that has a lot of aspects. There is the way that they author means for it to be taken and then there is the way that the audience takes it or completes it and fills in the blanks themselves. Also, if a director is involved and the story is put to screen, then there is the way the director presents the story and the way the viewing audience takes the story. So many people, so many points of view. I could write a story and hand it to 5 different people to read and I without a doubt believe that there would be five different opinions on the story all based on the experiences and preferences of the readers.

We take away from the film/story what we see. For instance, I have long loved Gone With The Wind and never thought of Scarlett as a "bitch". I thought of her as a survivor. Many people completely disagree with me on that. It's all in our point of view. There is also a lot of room for interpretations in film, more so than books because there is a limited time and a lot gets left out generally.

My point is that if you look for something you might see it.

"Mr Corleone is a man who insists on hearing bad news at once."

Yoooooooooouuuuuu clever shrew. ;)

At least there will be plenty implied.
