Shakespeare's romantic comedy Taming the Shrew comes alive in the modernized, teen-friendly version 10 Things I Hate About You.
A new student to Padua High School, Cameron sit in the office of the odd guidance councilor, Ms. Perky. Another boy named Michael is assigned to show him around campus where we can see all the different clicks--cowboys, future BA's, the populars. That's when he see's Bianca Stadford, a beautiful sophomore. She only has one problem. She's not allowed to date neither is her rampaging, moody sister Kat who has a cynical outlook on life and doesn't care what others think about her.
So this post just brought flashing memories of sittting in your living room, eating Nona's heavenly cookies and sharing tidbits of our week apart. Those Saturday nights remain etched in my memory as vividly as if I were still there. To put it simply, this movie is one of my favorites! Not just because it is an excellently executed example of an adaptation, but because it reminds me of the KiKaKa =)
