Critics applauded Hepburn's performance. Crowther wrote that, "The happiest thing about ["My Fair Lady"] is that Audrey Hepburn superbly justifies the decision of Jack Warner to get her to play the title role." Gene Ringgold of "Soundstage" also commented that, "Audrey Hepburn is magnificent. She is Eliza for the ages", while adding, "Everyone agreed that if Julie Andrews was not to be in the film, Audrey Hepburn was the perfect choice." The reviewer in "Time" magazine said her "graceful, glamorous performance" was "the best of her career". Andrews won an Academy Award for "Mary Poppins" at the 37th Academy Awards, but Hepburn was not even nominated. On the other hand, Hepburn did receive Best Actress nominations for both Golden Globe and New York Film Critics Circle awards.
