Ten things I hate about you VS. Taming of the Shrew.

Ten things I hate about you vs. Taming of the Shrew.
The movie ten things I Hate about You, successfully captures the essence of the novel Taming of the Shrew. To start off, they make the characters fit the description very well. Katherine is absolutely perfectly matched with the character in the book. She is bitter and won’t let boys in her life. “I’ faith, sir, you shall never need to fear. I Wis it is not halfway to her heart. But if it were, doubt not her care should be To comb your noodle with a three-legged stool And paint your face and use you like a fool.” (Act1, Scene1) shows how much hatred she already has for Petruchio who says he is going to woo her. She wants nothing to do with him, much alike in the movie when Patrick is trying to take out Katherine. Neither of them wanted anything to do with their wanting to be lovers, eventually caving in and loving their partners. Or so we think they do. Both Petruchio and Patrick are in it at first for the money, they aren’t necessarily interested in the women. Throughout both the story and the movie Katherine’s younger sister Bianca wants to be able to marry/date a boy, but are not allowed because of Katherine’s stubborn desire to be without a man in her life. Also, as time passes it seems to reveal in the book and movie that the women start to fall for their wooers it seems.  As Katherine makes a speech in front of a whole dinner saying; “Thy husband is thy lord, thy life, thy keeper,Thy head, thy sovereign; one that cares for thee,  for thy maintenance commits his  body
To painful labour both by sea and land, To watch the night in storms, the day in cold,
Whilst thou liest warm at home, secure and safe; And craves no other tribute at thy hands
But love, fair looks and true obedience;” it definitely relates to the poem that Katherine reads out in front of her class about her love for Patrick.
