10 Things I Hate About You
This film is fantastic on so many levels: firstly, it has a stellar soundtrack. Secondly, it has Heath Ledger and Joseph Gordon-Levitt starring. Thirdly, it’s sarcastic protagonist, Kat, is everything I aspire to be in life. This modernised adaptation of Shakespeare’s ‘Taming of the Shrew’ is packed full of clever literary references which were fun to pick out, being the geek that I am. The script is full of witty one liners and when I first watched it, I found myself genuinely cracking up with laughter. Although I’ve probably worn my DVD copy out by watching it so many times, it remains to this day a feel-good film which has just the right level of happy-ever-after for a cynic like me.
