    Have you ever seen the film 10 Things I Hate about You? It is actually a modern take on the Taming of the Shrew.

    In order to date the younger sister, a boy must first convince the mean older sister to fall in love (their father has said that the younger sister can only date when her older sister does,). The boy must then find a potential suitor for the older sister and make them fall in love ... or at least that is the version in 10 Things I Hate About You.

    Timothy has already accurately described Taming of the Shrew, so I am not going to duplicate that information.
