    Storyline

    Edit
    Adapted from William Shakespeare's play "The Taming of the Shrew," 10 Things I Hate About You starts off with Cameron, new student at Padua High, sitting in the office of the quirky guidance counselor Ms. Perky. He is then shown around the school by Michael, who will become his best friend. During his tour is when Cameron first sees Bianca Stratford, a beautiful sophomore with one problem: she isn't allowed to date. And neither is her "shrew" sister, Katarina, a senior who loves indie rock and feminist prose and hates conformity. But Kat and Bianca's father alters his house rule: now, Bianca can date... as long as Kat has a date, too. Now, in order for Cameron to date Bianca, he has to find someone to date Kat. So Michael helps him enlist the help of pretty-boy/jerk/model Joey Donner, tricking him into thinking that *he* will get to take Bianca out if he pays someone to take out Kat. His choice: Patrick Verona, a bad-boy with a mysterious reputation--some say he ate a live duck once, others that he lit a state trooper on fire, and even more claim that he had a brief porn career. Will Patrick win Kat's heart? Will Cameron win Bianca's? Or will everything hit the fan...? —Erica Baffa

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The scene in which Kat reads the "10 Things" poem was the first and only take, according to the DVD extras. Kat's tears towards the end of the poem were real and not planned.
    • Goofs
      When Bianca takes Cameron to Kat's room, she opens the third drawer. In the next shot, it's the second drawer that's opened.
    • Quotes

      Mr. Morgan: All right... I assume everyone's found time to complete their poem... except... for Mr. Donner.

      [starts laughing]

      Mr. Morgan: Who has an excuse

      [laughs even harder, then stops]

      Mr. Morgan: . Shaft! Lose the glasses.

      [Joey removes his sunglasses, revealing his bruised nose from his earlier confrontation with Bianca]

      Mr. Morgan: All right... anyone brave enough to read theirs aloud?

      [Everyone looks at each other, waiting to see who goes first, Kat finally raises her hand]

      Kat Stratford: I will.

      Mr. Morgan: [rolls his eyes and sighs] Lord, here we go.

      Kat Stratford: I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair. I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare. I hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind. I hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme.

      [sighs]

      Kat Stratford: I hate it, I hate the way you're always right. I hate it when you lie. I hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry.

      [Kat's voice breaks and she looks at Patrick]

      Kat Stratford: I hate it when you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call.

      [starts to cry]

      Kat Stratford: But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you. Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.

      [Kat walks out the classroom]

    • Crazy credits
      During the credits there are practical jokes made by cast and crew and also goofs - including scenes that didn't make the final cut.
    • Alternate versions
      The first UK releases were cut by 1 second to achieve a "12" rating and removed a brief shot of a butterfly knife being flipped open. The cut was waived for the 2010 DVD.

    9/10
    It was very good
    A movie like this doesn't exactly hit you over the head with its originality, and can only be as good as the actors. They must convince you that you've never seen anything like this before. In this case every single member of the cast is so good that they sold me on the movie from minute one. Heath Ledger & Julia Stiles make a great couple and his rendition of "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" was one of the highlights. When Julia listed the "10 Things" she was crying and I was, too - extremely unusual for me in a movie like this. Everyone else was just as good and this movie is a keeper.
