Petruchio Proposes to Katharina

Petruchio's proposal to Katharina in The Taming of the Shrew
For one of my courses, Shakespeare on RUclips, we were split into groups and told to create a website page to help explain whatever play we were assigned. My group was given Taming of the Shrew. Check out the page! sunyshakespeare...

An ancient trailer for this film said "They were born to play these roles" and it is sooo spot on

[@janeiagildne2750]

can we just appreciate every moment Katharina is savage af

"Let him who moved you hither, RE-move you hence!"
LOL you have to love Shakespeare's turn of phrase.

[@count_bodies_like_sheep9296]

This is basically what Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton’s relationship was like in real life.

[@bravesoul5743]

Yeah they are so toxic!!

[@nina1522]

​@@bravesoul5743 They were ultimately toxic because they both had substance abuse problems, at least from what I've read about them. They truly did love each other, though, all their lives.

Katharina needed -- and got! -- someone who not only would not be intimidated by her but who was every bit as passionate and quick-witted as she is and who probably would have been bored silly with anyone who was not like her. They both needed someone who could keep them on their toes and keep up with them -- and I suspect that once they become better acquainted with each other, they loved each other every bit as fiercely and passionately as they initially fought with each other.

[@nina1522]

@OreadNYC I think you pretty much hit that right on the head.

[@mohamedmostafa2471]

I laughed , when (Taylor) kicked (Burton) down😂 . I liked Shakespeare's play and i like to watch this movie .

[@englerrose]

you would find a good deal on Amazon for this movie, that's where I got mine.

[@TheBlackLakeSiren]

I loved Meryl Streep as Katherine in Kiss Me Petruchio with Raul Julia.

[@tesscrelli783]

Hahahaha they suit each other so well.

[@kristagreen6752]

I love this movie

[@jasonhurd4379]

This movie's a lot of fun to watch, but Shakespeare is all about the text. If you want to hear it spoken cleverly and with a sense of character and subtlety, try the BBC radio production starring Peter O' Toole and Siân Phillips. It's in four parts here on RUclips.

[@OneTrueVikingbard]

Omg that exists? Two dramatic giants on the same stage performing Shakespeare together? Excuse me I must find this henceforth!

[@ir8free]

Mooooved?

[@Lucythebackstreetgirl]

I can relate to the character because she's very strong and I can be that way to and I know what it's like.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊

[@sharad2935]

Richard Burton ❤️😄

[@kareno7848]

Has anyone else noticed that Petruchio is a peanut butter and jelly boy? He's a drunk, with holes in his stockings who demands money of a woman he despises. Kate is no prize to be sure but this surely is no love story. It's comedy where we watch the Land of Misfit Toys.

[@arnoldstollar5375]

Great. Acting.

[@vudi2103]

Oh honey you have a big storm comin..

[@liraven7676]

I mean, that IS the correct response 😄😄

[@bbdc1977-sg8dc]

WHAT A MASTERPIECE THIS FILM IS ! BOTH WERE AMAZING ! EVERYONE WAS "SO" JEALOUS. THEY JUST CAME OFF OF THE ENORMOUS SUCCESS OF "WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOLF?" ONE TRADE PAPER ACTUALLY REVIEWED THE FILM WITH THE HEADLINE, "THE BURTON'S HAVE DONE IT AGAIN!" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@mikeseigle5560]

If done correctly both are shrews and they tame each other.

[@heathermorton254]

[@jaythe90skyd49]

Well damn
