dbpprop:abstract
  • Gabriel Pascal (4 June 1894 – 6 July 1954) was a Hungarian film producer and director. Born in Arad, Transylvania, Austria–Hungary in 1894, Pascal was the first film producer to bring the plays of George Bernard Shaw successfully to the screen. His most famous production was Pygmalion, which was later adapted by Lerner and Loewe into the musical My Fair Lady. Pascal had tried to convince Shaw to let Pygmalion be turned into a musical, but the outraged Shaw explicitly forbade it, having had a bad experience with the operetta The Chocolate Soldier, based on Shaw's Arms and the Man. Pascal died in 1954, and it was not until 1956 that Pygmalion became My Fair Lady.
  • Gabriel Pascal war ein ungarischer Produzent, Regisseur, Drehbuchautor und Schauspieler, der sich besonders durch Verfilmungen von Werken George Bernard Shaws einen Namen machte.
