This episode takes a deep dive into two of the most well known film adaptations of The Taming of the Shrew, 10 Things I Hate About You and Deliver Us from Eva. After a whole episode, I still feel like there's so much more that could be said. Hit me up #GabrielleUnion! I discuss how these two films compare to Shakespeare's Shrew and other Shrew stories as well as to each other. Their underlying themes emerge, showing how The Shrew still resonates today, even as far and wide as the current uprisings in Iran. #WomanLifeFreedom
