<p>CATEGORY: THOU HADST ME AT GOOD MORROW</p><br><p>This week we are kicking off our new Shakespeare bucket of rom-coms with the 1999 teen classic, <em>10 Things I Hate About You </em>starring Heath Ledger, Julia Stiles, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Larisa Oleynik, David Krumholtz, Allison Janney, Gabrielle Union and Andrew Keegan! This movie is a modern reimagining of the classic Shakespeare play <em>The Taming of The Shrew </em>and the writers were inspired to modernize a classic after they saw Clueless and its immense success. We'll discuss how at times this movie feels a bit TOO similar to Clueless, but mostly we rave about the fashion and the immense influence it had on us, the brilliant cast, and how the paddleboat date was perhaps a mis-step. Plus Elena gets sad about the late great Heath Ledger and realizes she's been avoiding this pain for far too long. Enjoy! </p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
