Re: dubbing in My Fair Lady and Camelot. It wasn’t the singing that is the problem, but the bad casting of “stars” over talent.

Seeing an aristocratic Belgian (Hepburne) pretend to be a poor cockney didn’t fit (albeit she was glowing as usual). Her singing made me wince, but the main problem is that she was miscast period.

As for Camelot, I simply can’t watch Vanessa Redgrave mugging and overacting in the film.

The singing in both cases was nonsense, but not the main problem.

I'm going to have to disagree with you (and others) about My Fair Lady. Hepburne was perfectly cast and the film remains one of my favorites.

Looking forward to seeing Le Mis. Everyone I know who has seen it raves about it. Apparently it's playing to packed theaters and the audience regularly applauds at the end.

“casting of stars over talent”

Indeed. I am in agreement with you.
