Kat Stratford (Julia Stiles) is beautiful, smart and decidedly abrasive to most of her fellow teens, with no time or patience for love. Unfortunately for her younger sister, Bianca (Larisa Oleynik), house rules say that she can’t date until Kat has a boyfriend, so strings are pulled to set the dour damsel up for a romance. Soon Kat crosses paths with handsome new arrival Patrick Verona (Heath Ledger). Will Kat let her guard down enough to fall for the effortlessly charming Patrick?

Relive the irresistible, generation-defining 90s rom-com favourite which smartly reimagined Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew as a teen comedy, featuring an iconic pairing you simply can’t take your eyes off – Julia Stiles and the late Heath Ledger.
