Italia, siglo XVI. Petrucchio, un pobre pero obstinado caballero de Verona, va a Padua en busca de una esposa rica. Allí conoce a la temperamental, iracunda e intratable Catalina, que le impone todo tipo de condiciones para casarse con él. Cuando por fin accede, él se las arregla para convertir la luna de miel en una auténtica pesadilla con el fin de dominarla. Cuando la pareja vuelve a Padua, Catalina ayuda a Petrucchio a ganar una apuesta que demuestra que ella es la más obediente de las esposas. (Filmin)

Recently, I was inspired by a production at the Vinohrady theater and I was intrigued by a critical debate that I would not have expected. I suppose with an author like Shakespeare, we don't wonder about many things. For example, we do not expect advanced emancipation and gender equality in a late 16th-century play. Women's suffrage slowly happened only at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. This Zeffirelli adaptation is one of the most famous and popular for many reasons. We have become accustomed to his adaptations of "Romeo and Juliet," "Hamlet," and finally Jane Eyre being among the best of what these texts have inspired. This version of "The Taming of the Shrew" is also a practical example of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton's marital acting performance. I don't like this couple any better than Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks, who played Katherine and Petruccio in 1929, but it's nice to be able to see so much color in their relationship.
