The Taming of the Shrew

1967 · 117 min

A boisterous, sunlit battle of wills where the sparring is as physical as it is verbal, and the romance simmers under the shouting.

Tagline: The motion picture they were made for!
Overview: Italy, 16th century. Petruchio, a choleric, lying and poor rural landowner from Verona, arrives in Padua in search of fortune and a wife, while Baptista, a wealthy merchant, announces that he will not allow Bianca, his youngest daughter, to marry until the temperamental and unruly Katherina, his eldest daughter, does.
How it feels: Whimsical, romantic, absurd and earnest. Brisk and needs your attention.
About: Love, gender, family, power
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
