      women love the taming of the shrew

             I'm a woman, and when I read The Taming of the Shrew, I laughed dumbfounded at first, and then laughed out loud.
          First of all, I praise Taylor. Although her handling of Shakespeare's lines is still a little too polite and unnatural, as Woody Allen said, actresses can only be born. Her first shot, a close-up of the eyes, shows her ability to express complex human emotions. She has a fiery human desire, an understanding of complex human nature, and the ability to empathize with...

      This kiss is enough

      I have to say that in the last scene of the 67th edition of "The Taming of the Shrew", Tyler knelt and looked up, looking up at Burton, and when he reached out his hand expectantly and respectfully, the emotion and love in Burton's eyes was like a spring tide on the coast. , overwhelming, surging. Only true love from the heart can have such a touching effect. Next, he slowly walked towards Tyler with a smile, bent down and took Tyler's hand, and the moment he kissed Tyler, I suddenly...

      "She came and went like a tide"

      Compared to Anthony and Cleopatra in Cleopatra, I actually prefer Petruchio and Catherine in The Taming of the Shrew.

      Burton is a very interesting person in emotional drama, and only when he is really in love with his heroine will he show real emotion. This point can be understood by comparing the emotional scenes between him and Claire Bloom in "Looking Back On Anger" and "Berlin Spy". When the love is gone, there is no longer any affectionate affection in his eyes.

      When...

      Two hopeful shots:

      1. He learned the news of his upcoming marriage from the stained glass above the door frame, and showed a knowing smile.

      2. On the wedding day, I walked down the steps and saw the flowers, and happily picked them up.

      At the same time, the second end was followed by everyone's teasing, which made Kaiterina show a fierce look to scare everyone away. This is her mask to protect herself. Back at the beginning of the movie, she threw something and hit...

      Taming the Shrew, see how Catherine was tamed step by step, from an assertive woman to a man's slave, while helping other men to complete the domestication of women. It's too real, because women are isolated and helpless, unable to fight, compromise and will until they become vassals or even accomplices. We always talk about women's rights and say what to do with men, but it is women themselves who should be awakened. This movie is actually very...

    "The Taming of the Shrew" is one of Shakespeare's most popular dramas , which was adapted into a movie by Griffith as early as 1908. And Zeverley's 1967 version of "The Taming of the Shrew," made even better by Elizabeth Rosemond Taylor and Richard Burton.
    Zeverley is the best at picking actors. Who is best suited to play this rude, violent couple from Shakespeare? Certainly the craziest couple in Hollywood: Richard Burton and Elizabeth...
