He was known as the quintessential "women's director"
for decades--but that doesn't begin to describe the range of emotions
George
Cukor achieved in his films. The works ranged from biting
satire (The Women) to glossy love stories (The Philadelphia Story)
to one of the most splendid musicals ever filmed (My Fair Lady).
Throw in rollicking screwball comedy, moving period drama, and
out-and-out melodrama, and you begin to get a sense of Cukor's
range. And always at the center of his films are women: arch,
articulate, savvy, assured, or tragic, but with one thing in common:
they are never consigned to the background.
