The one difference about these two plays that are pretty obvious is that both of the play were made at different times like in the movie “10 things I hate about you” the characters are dating and not into anything to serious but in “The taming of the shrew” when all the characters met they, one fell in love right away, two they did sex and got married not to long before they met.

At the beginning of the film Michael walks through the courtyard with Cameron and informs him about the different social groups at Padua High School. The examples of Kat and Patrick show us that people can be different compared to how they first appeared to you. The movie wants us to learn that we should get to know someone, because if we judge on appearance only we could miss out on a great friendship or
