- The full version of Katharina's final speech from The Taming of the Shrew
For one of my courses, Shakespeare on TH-cam, we were split into groups and told to cerate a website page to help explain whatever play we were assigned. My group was given Taming of the Shrew. Check out the page! sunyshakespeare.weebly.com/shr... - บันเทิง
Good Lord that woman could act...
One of Elizabeth Taylor’s best performances.
I beg to differ! Shakespeare was not her forte.
Her Dad's all shocked: "Never thought i would see the day!"😂
All those other men too.
😂😂😂
The supporting actors of this movie were really amazing. The men during this speech look completely enchanted.
Superb acting from one of the most gifted actresses of our time. This scene gives me chills every time I watch it. Shakespeare is the test of true talent.
My mum made me watch it with her, she had seen this when she was 15. Probably the best movie/play I've ever seen. In so many ways this could be interpreted.
Wow. I guess I really am a rare breed. This speech is spot on to me. To me this speech is about how a man and woman should treat each other. My husband and I both work but I work from home and take care of the home. He works physically very hard and has to deal with a lot of negative people. That weighs greatly on a man. I make our home a sanctuary for him. He comes home and relaxes. That’s it unless we renovate, something needs repaired, or something physically I cannot do. Otherwise, he rests. I cook all meals. It’s my joy. He is the head of our household but he seeks and values my opinion. I often make decisions because he doesn’t want to. He deserves my smiles, my joy, my affection, and support. Because I treat him this way, he treats me like a queen. We’ve been married 14 years. Must be doing something right. “My hand is ready. May it do him ease.”
And that's the way it should be, that's so inspiring!
Beautiful. This is a true marriage. ❤
In my mind, Kate's just acting, and she'll murder him after the play is over. That would truly be a happy ending.
Because you’re a bitter hateful angry shrew yourself.
@@stephensmith4025 oh piss off
In this version of the play. I bought Meryl Streep's version in Kiss Me, Petruchio
Good lord! The blasphemy!
It’s unreal how you fantasize about the death and murder of people you disagree with. You vile vile troglodyte.
Watching the background people see the transformation in her. It's great.
Lol, Petruchio is as surprised as anyone how far she went.
KATE: Fie, fie, unknit that threat'ning unkind brow
And dart not scornful glances from those eyes
To wound thy lord, thy king, thy governor.
It blots thy beauty as frosts do bite the meads,
Confounds thy fame as whirlwinds shake fair buds,
And in no sense is meet or amiable.
A woman moved is like a fountain troubled,
Muddy, ill-seeming, thick, bereft of beauty,
And while it is so, none so dry or thirsty
Will deign to sip or touch one drop of it.
Thy husband is thy lord, thy life, thy keeper,
Thy head, thy sovereign; one that cares for thee
And for thy maintenance; commits his body
To painful labor both by sea and land,
To watch the night in storms, the day in cold,
Whilst thou li'st warm at home, secure and safe;
And craves no other tribute at thy hands
But love, fair looks, and true obedience--
Too little payment for so great a debt.
Such duty as the subject owes the prince,
Even such a woman oweth to her husband;
And when she is froward, peevish, sullen, sour,
And not obedient to his honest will,
What is she but a foul contending rebel
And graceless traitor to her loving lord?
I am ashamed that women are so simple
To offer war where they should kneel for peace,
Or seek for rule, supremacy, and sway,
Whey they are bound to serve, love, and obey.
Why are our bodies soft and weak and smooth,
Unapt to toil and trouble in the world,
But that our soft conditions and our hearts
Should well agree with our external parts?
Come, come, you froward and unable worms,
My mind hath been as big as one of yours,
My heart as great, my reason haply more,
To bandy word for word and frown for frown.
But now I see our lances are but straws,
Our strength as weak, our weakness past compare,
That seeming to be most which we indeed least are.
Then vail your stomachs, for it is no boot,
And place your hands below your husband's foot,
In token of which duty, if he please,
My hand is ready, may it do him ease.
I had to recite this monologue from memory in my 10th grade English class

What act and scene is this from
My opinion on this play has changed since I read it it highschool. Rather than looking at Kate as a distinct looser in a battle, she learned that men and women play two distinct roles in a marriage. The husband deals with external challenges, while the wife deals with the internal. Acquiring money, working long hours, repairs, etc, was the domain of the husbands. Wives would be the focal point of dealing with how their family is perceived by society (community on a smaller scale). Well dressed, educated, and healthy children were a strong indicator of a strong family. It was written a long time ago, so time has changed, but you can see that it will still hold true in the poorest parts of the world.
Still holds true anywhere. The red pill is real.
It's true even in the richest parts, family is our last citadel against the madness of the world and men and women should contribute, though stay-at-home dad now is as normal as a high paid wife working 'at land and at sea'. Priceless piece.
Completely agree with you. My husband and I have been married 26 years. It takes two people understanding their roles and willing to work together. Husbands crave respect and wives crave love. Giving what the other needs creates what you need in them.
For my acting course, I have to do this monologue so it’s helpful to watch how other people do it. It’s also helpful to analyse this and see how to go about acting it.
Excellent!!!
Richard Burton's reaction is "priceless" ; )
I think this was the moment it stopped being about winning a bet for him, and he actually fell in love with Katherine. I think she needed a man who would stand up to her and not take any of her bullying. She met her match in Petruchio and once she had tested him and saw he was as strong and smart as she was, she respected him, when she had never really respected anyone before.
She could make reading the phone book powerful and inspiring.
What people are losing is that she is playing this speech ironically directly after this she winks at Bianca and runs away from Petruchio proving that she will never submit to him completely thereby rendering everything she has said as a least partially insincere.
IMO for me the speech is at its best when it's not playing the polar extremes that of either being the speech of a broken woman who has been abused into submission or an uncoforming woman being ironic. There's a in between which is that she is telling Petrichio that she loves him and this speech is regarding him as an equal to her. The "taming" is a way of making Katherine realises how her behaviour affects others. Let's be honest Katherine is not a pleasant person her behaviour even today would cause her to at the least be given court mandated anger management or at worst have her sectioned or in jail. She literally breaks instruments over people's heads, ties up her sister, throws chairs and the like around and bullies everyone around her. That to me isn't the mark of a strong woman but a woman who has been continually broken by a society that yes is patriachal and so seeks or repress her which she fights against but with the added wealth and status the mark of someone too spoilt and indulged. By giving her a mirror or her cruel behaviour it forces her to change and become a genuinely nicer person while still retaining her strong will and personality. Her speech is her acknowledging how her love for Petruchio has started the change in her and how she is willing to be in a relationship with someone where she is willing to compromise and not always put her own needs first.
And as the play acknowledges out of the three couples Petruchio and Kat have the strongest marriage. They've seen the worst and best of each other and love each other still. They have never been more than what they are and are completely honest with each other from the get go. Bianca and Hortensio's relationship is based on deception from the get go. From his deception of pretending to be a tutor to her deception of him she is not the innocent doe eyes lamb she has been pretending to be we see moments of that real self in her private interaction with Kate but this proves it. They have started a marriage without really knowing each other and are likely going to make each other miserable in the long run. Kate and Petruchio will be openly and passionately in love even when they are disagreeing. They will be in love with each other the others are in love with the idea of each other not the reality.
Wow very well put! This is why o
I love this movie so much!
Katherina isn't broken or tamed, not by a long shot! She has her man wrapped around her finger. She OWNS him! Ever hear the phrase, you catch more flies with honey. All she had to do was change her approach. He thinks he's in charge, but she'll have him jumping through hoops, mark my words.
Odile Jones
“.....isn’t the mark of a strong woman...”!
Exactly!!!
Since when (even) now is arrogance, harshness and disrespect qualities demonstrating “strength”?
Also, her speech expresses
“her recognition” of the “natural” differences between men and women.
Instead of a “confession” of love, she expresses that
“she has learned” the importance of “gratitude”!
@Odile
👌🏾
Beautifully said and so true. I also think, she was having a little inside joke going on with her husband, by subtly holding the mirror up to the people that mocked them both. She greatly insulted her sister and brother in law with her speech, and they can’t say anything back because they were so adamant about what a wife’s duty is to her husband. They both used Petruchio and Katherine for their own ends. To be called out by Katherine of all people must have stung, and I live for it. I also think she realized that she can’t continue to fight against windmills and has to play the game to get ahead. I think she loves Petruchio and that a marriage is a give and take and that she has to employ more subtle means to get what she wants.
Fukcing LOVE this movies...one of the greatest speeches in a Hollywood movie
Ashraf Anam Kate's speech basically means girls are just meaningless toys!
But she does love him🤵🏻❤️👰🏻
Catherine Cao thanks i need this for hw aha
I don't understand, she was abused and then has to say that she is just an object that is owned by her husband
cave_crystal I think this is a sarcastic speech
Hate the content in the speech, love Elizabeth Taylor's performance.
I love this version of Mr Shakespeare’s wonderful play!!!
The stunning Liz Taylor
The real flaw of this speech is not that women are expected to care for their husbands, but that women are defined as weak and expected to be living a life of ease and that is why they owe comfort to their husband. So does that mean those of us who endure the danger and pain of childbirth (many of us more than once), and who live with the daily strain of raising our kids while he gets to clock in and out of his tasks and have plenty of rest, or who aren't being given the kind of lavish treatment Kate seems accustomed to, should be "shrewish"? Each partner owes the other kindness, love, and respect purely because they're our family. Both partners sacrifice and struggle and labor, so both ought to cherish the other.
Such a great movie. I must been really really young. I learnt a lot from my maternal grandfather. Wished he was still alive 😢
Elizabeth Taylor fine actress and Richard Burton both are perfect for this role👏🏻👏🏻
Besides the I numerous understandings and concepts of Education and cultural beliefs, Shakespeare simple put what in life is called Love . Obedience and submission is only terms if one point of view are limited by rules the society imposed. Katherine from all the other women learn the difference and she was Happy .
She nailed it.
The guy in the silver hat looks like Prince Valium, lol
Fuck ur feelings I knew I wasn’t the only one that thought of this
Taming of the shrew. A favourite of mine.
I love this movie, super magnet between Taylor And Burton. Thanks to this it is so famous.
Yes you may disagree with these characters and how they were written but these were the times they lived in, to be brutally honest I would like to see a male version of this movie Taming of the Beast, the wife that marries her husband is Solia, and the Beast she needs to tame is a rebellious and spoiled Prince Keyden of a mighty Rich family. Kayden has gotten drunk so he'll be able to marry his wife and when he finally finds that when he wakes up and he's in the basement like dungeon and the house that his wife Solia owns, it's up to solia to teach him about how to be a proper gentleman and be obedient to his wife. So basically Kayden will learn what Kate learned about not biting the hand who cares for you, accept obedience and selflessness. I would love to see Hollywood in today's Century Do a reverse story like this.
A different time? Who ran the government during this age? (Don't google it, it was Elizabeth the first)
Actually a play like that was already written in the early 17th century in response to William Shakespeare’s play where the women ends up taming her husband. It also encouraged equality between the sexes in marriage and it was quite popular and even more well liked in the early 17th century. It was called the women’s prize or tamer tamed. Here you go: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Woman%27s_Prize
Solia must be hot for that, men dont go and fall for any random bitches, I dont think male version works like that..instead most women just fall for this kind of beast..
It takes very little to make a man happy, so this speech rings true.
A good meal and some loving & you can have anything; women are so stupid not to know this.....
Margret Sims women are so stupid bc they aren’t being obedient submissive wives? Good for them for taking on positions of power,
coralarch Not true. I know from personal observations growing up in fundamentalist churches, that men with submissive wives are NEVER happy long and always want more and more control, never satisfied with what she gives.
Margret Sims a bit of loving is her saying why women r possessions to their husbands and they can be as abusive as they want to 😒 wow so loving.
@@ihatecomingupwithusernames2891 and are women happy who are given full reins in the house and society? absolutely not. they want to get divorced. women are lost today. and very, very sad.
So many feminists in the comments that don't understand the message of this play. Husband and Wife should respect each other, not give each other grief. You offer me love, I offer you love. He works hard to support her, She gives him comfort to support him. Equal balance of stability in a relationship. Just respect each other!
Why people have such a hard time understanding this is beyond me
Respecting each other is fine. Didn't look like Petruccio was respectful to her. Ever. In this whole play.
...Didn't Petruchio starve her, deny her sleep, and basically made her life miserable unless she obeyed him?
...and THAT is how it ought to be.
That rare magical moment on stage, when fellow cast members and crew metamorphise into a spellbound audience of a Butterfky emerging in their midst. 🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🦋
ok ok ok i get that everyone-- and seriously. everyone.-- is gonna be fighting in the comments section about if Kate was right or not about women, but can we all just appreciate how well written the character Kate is??? And maybe about the play/movie itself??? I'm trying to score the role of Kate for my school production, and legitimately i have figured out the exact tone i like for each line and how i want to portray the character (sarcastic, a bit juvenile, petty), but what i cannot figure out is this exact scene. Or rather her entire transformation. I personally love the theory that she has been actually brainwashed with what is practically torture. I mean, ya'll can talk about how you think Petruchio was right about women or something, but you cant deny the fact that he starved Kate and deprived her of sleep. that's torture. you cant deny that. i don't think it's unlikely that she has fallen under Stockholm Syndrome, but frankly, as an actress, that's really hard to portray. so instead, i think i'll end up portraying the character as if she still believes in having rights as a women deep down, but she just gives in. she hasn't eaten or slept in a week and she just wants it all to be over. Maybe she's trying to convince herself that she should be obedient, but she still doesn't truly believe it. She's a smart girl.
And i just want to ask, if anyone has played Kate before or just has an opinion on how she should be portrayed in this change, could you please give me some advice? I'm completely stuck. Her transformation can be portrayed so. many. ways. and it is so tiring. Any help would be awesome :)
I think is this scene, and certainly in this adaptation, Kate is pretending that her "shrewish" ways have been "tamed" by Petruchio. This speech is mere acting, and she is attempting to convince Petruchio to trust her and let his guard down. At the end of the movie she leaves the room and forces him to run after her. Rather than being "tamed" she has found a better way to get back at him for his cruel treatment. By acting as though she has been changed she has increased her hold and sway over Petruchio and has in fact become the dominant partner. I don't think such a strong character as Kate would truly give in like this (though, as you said, she might just want it to be over). I believe her intelligence allowed her to come to a realisation on how to improve her situation. She hasn't been tamed, she is still the same Kate, but far more subtle about it.
Icabel Cai i would try to accept it was completely different era with different values and priorities. i would say the transformation she went through was because that torture (as you call it) she was exposed to worked as a mirror. he was intentionally treating her with no respect as she had no respect for anyone. so she kinda tasted her own medicine. he made her understand he needs her to build a home where he can rest after hard day, to worship him so he would feel important and loved, to have her unconditional support so even if he's wrong there is someone who would be on his side no matter what so she would understand her role as a woman and as a wife (at that time). he wasn't really trying to hurt her (skipping a dinner never killed anyone and how many sleepless nights we go through because of love? ). he was teaching her respect, humility and what he really wants from her. and that's love, support and yes obedience. however i believe he pushed it to the extreme so she would hit the rock bottom as he knew she was a strong woman who can handle it. he basically gave her a chance to grow and mature as a human and she really did. i hope it helped i'm no actress so i can only offer my understanding of the character
I dont think Kate decided to simply be obedient. In her case, she needed to realise that she was extremely ungrateful. She needed to learn:
1.Men and women are different.
2.Appreciate others if you want to be appreciated and vice versa.
Consider this, there are many things that women can do that men can do, but women do things that men "can't" do!
(and vice versa!)
I hope this is helpful! ; )
How did it go with your portrayal?If you still need some insight, I#m happy to offer some if I can.
Hey, I’m also trying to get the role for Katherine in my school play so if you have any tips it would be great.
really this is the best story that how petruchio tame the shrew katherine
1:39
Love that! Wish I had gotten it when I was younger.
The greatest speech by female ever. If they woman today only knew
Some do, I know and completely and utterly agree with you.
For anyone who's actually read this speech, this speech is not about unwavering submission to their husbands. It's about stroking the male ego and manipulating their husbands.
Complete nonsense. This is what happens when you let modern fools interpret a play from a time they don't understand... lmao.
@@TheNabOwnzz Well, anyone that has a racist slave owner as their avatar doesn't know what the hell they're talking about, to begin with.
@@theylied1776 Really? You're gonna have to explain to me how that works, boyo, because it doesn't make a lot of sense. If anything, it should better illustrate the knowledge of that person relating to more archaic times. And i guarantee you Shakespeare was not very interested in your woke nonsense.
@@TheNabOwnzz Really, racist? Have you ever read Othello?
@@theylied1776 We weren't really talking about race, were we, boyo? We were talking of gender. But it seems to be your talent to miscontrue history in a most modern fashion. In any case, the Taming of the Shrew is clearly meant to emphasize masculine superiority and feminine obedience, which were really rather self-evident things in those days.
Got a BIT of a crush on Liz Taylor in this movie. And this movie was made 23 years before I was even born and I didn't see it until I was about sixteen.
I just want to point out the cinematography. Zefirelli's movies are just visually sumptious.
The Taming of the Shrew was the precursor to Romeo and Juliet which bagged Zefirelli an Oscar for cinematography. He was the master of the visual. In R and J he exploited that with Hussey and Whiting to make up for their lack of acting experience; it was visually stunning and audiences can be forgiven for placing this film so high in the annals of Shakespeare to the big screen; his version covers up several critical plot omissions by the skillful technics of distraction and I daresay, lack of knowledge of the text. Everyone too busy falling in love with Hussey and Whiting to notice that the killing of Paris by Romeo is omitted. "Taming of the Shrew" is in the same vein. Elizabeth Taylor's looks jump out, and she is so much of a 'larger than life' actress that the part of Katherine was made for her. It did help of course that Burton and she were husband and wife at the time. Ever seen, "Who afraid of Virginia Wolf?"
@@rohansrider Yes I have seen Virginia Woolf, great performances by everyone in that. I only saw Romeo and Juliet once, many years ago, I don't remember it much. Zefferelli's production of Jane Eyre, starring William Hurt and Charlotte Gainsburgh, is really good, have you seen that?
@@nina1522 Yes, and also Hamlet with Mel Gibson, Glen Close, Alan Bates and Kate Winslet. Try and see R and J again, it's well worth a view.
People might think this is sexist but this is but a different time... women weren’t allowed to do anything and were brought up to believe thy couldn’t do many things to survive. So their husbands were technically their caregivers. This play is telling us to respect and cherish those who look after and care for us. More directing towards respect. So when you see this think of her more like being a child talking to other children about obeying and being convenient and polite to their parents, instead of rebelling, rule over, order around, and being sulky towards people who care for them out of love. Like a child, who is under their parents’ rules, command and roof. A child that should obey and be good for their parents, the people who provide and care for them purely out of love. And they owe them so much for that, is what Kate is saying.
Not biting the hand that feeds you. Not disrespecting the one who cares for you. So it’s not sexist... but don’t worry, it is easy to be disillusioned by looking at it without really thinking into it. Kate simply realized that she should be a supportive force for the person who chooses to love and take care of her, just like a child who realizes what their parents have done for them. Most people have that revelation, growing up. I had mine at eight. I did a 180 and begun to see my mother as my loving mother who has blessed me with so much care and love and consideration, I wanted to do anything I could for her, any way I could help her, because I know saw what she had done for me. That’s the lesson Kate learned.
And Shakespeare is only responsible for what he writes, not what you take from it.
Rebekah Wolkiewicz
Very well put and I totally agree with your perspective of what the story is all about.
Rusty Gipson I had to listen to the script over 10 times at least. (I was stage manager.)
I developed an appreciation for it. And I really listened... 🤷🏼♀️
Konrad von Hötzendorf And all you’re showing your worth to be right now is trolling the Internet, looking for reactions by posting unpopular opinions and insults... like a 12 year old mad with the ability to make anonymous comments while hiding behind a screen. And the fruitless and unjustified claims of what an ignorant and disagreeable person may produce.
Konrad von Hötzendorf And you pretty much just admitted that you’re a sexist pig... so that’s a double strike on yourself...
"without really thinking into it".......exactly!
Studying this in year 9.
Whales seething and coping
Im in 7th grade and i have an assignment-to make a book review on this, does anyone know a comic strip ideas with a title?
Ohhhh this was a giant "FUCK YOU!" to the other wedding guests who had never thought that Petruchio or Katharina could be a good couple.
Haha essentially showed the rest that these two could work together, and well. One of my favorite scenes, hands down.
Yeah great couple, where the man viciously abuses his wife into submission. Truly relationship goals XD
Elizabeth really wanted to be this submissive wife to Richard. This is from the book Furious Love:
“After the speech was given the cameras stopped rolling, Elizabeth looked around the crowded banquet set, then at Richard, who was ‘deeply moved’ by her delivery of Shakespeare's speech, telling her, ‘All right, my girl, I wish you'd put that into practice.’
Elizabeth responded, ‘I can't say it in words like that, but my heart is there.’”
Multumim
My love!
i like seeing this troubling play as social commentary as much of Shakespeare’s plays are and if you dont leave the play thinking i never want that to happen to another women i dont think you get it or atleast you dont see it they way i see it as a call out to Misogynistic, horrendous, Manipulating men who gaslight and abuse women. kinda like Shakespeare is saying this is a problem in this time and will be a problem till you see that its a problem and not everyone had seen that its a problem
It's a good movie but GOD! The story is so messed up! The dude literally starves and tricks the woman to become an obedient wife that agrees to everything he says, even things everyone know isn't true like his dad being a virgin young woman! He breaks her to lose herself and becomes his desired pet
I think you miss the point. Petruchio reacts to Kate's incessant and needless rages by showing her WHO feeds, shelters and clothes her. What's the point of being a total bitch to someone who looks after you? It accomplishes nothing.
Petruchio never assaults Kate- he just gives her a lesson in the reality of domestic economics.
And it is still true that to this day ( in civilised countries) the hardest, dirtiest, most dangerous jobs are done by men, in order to protect the sex which bears children.
Besides, isn't it possible that Kate has realised that SHE is actually the boss? SHE is the one who is being cared for- doesn't that mean that the power dynamics actually reside in her, and not him? All she has to do is be pleasant, and everything she wants will be given to her. It's not much to ask.
Sound more like a women having her freedom to choose and think taken away from her. The story sound more like a fetish or kink put into a “professional” atmosphere. N no dominance over the other sex should be a thing of the past
As I said, why be a total bitch to someone who's willing to give her everything she wants? Remember- this was written long before Women's Lib, at a time when most of the female population would have been only too glad to have nice clothes, decent food and a life of ease. What was the average life span of the average peasant woman in those days? Probably in her early 30s. Being wealthy strengthened a woman's chances of living a longer and more enjoyable life.
Katerina's speech , as Shakespeare probably intended, can be very calculating- she realises that it is SHE in whom the power dynamics truly reside and has decided to play the marital game to HER advantage. Shakespeare was well aware of the power which women can wield over their husbands, after all, he married when he was only 18, so he had a lot of experience:).
A version I saw many years ago had the actress deliver in lines in seemingly very humble and contrite tones, but at the very end, she grinned and winked conspiratorially at the audience, - the subtext being "I've got him where I want him!" -and that is how I've always interpreted this scene.
Coralarch, I know your last comment was from two months before, but thank you very much for making this clear. Back when I read this in Sophomore year, despite what my teacher said I could not think of a way to somehow think of this last monologue as anything but Katherine being broken to Petruchio. I never thought that she would be doing something like this for her own benefit.
Thanks for answering a question I've always had!

I had to listen to this script over 12 TIMES (I was stage manager), eventually I really started listening and began to understand what is really meant by this and how we may learn from this literature today. I learned to appreciate the script... I think I still have a copy of it somewhere...
Elizabeth would have made a good Scarlet in Gone with the Wind.
There's only one scarlet and that's Vivien Leigh 🙂

woof
Quando la 'SERENISSIMA' era una potenza mondiale..
Miss Taylor never seemed to learn from this role -
Miss Buckland class anyone ?
🙌🏾, Give your lives to Christ 💓
While I truly admire Ms. Taylor's performance in this, the ideas constituting the speech itself are a bit repugnant. Such submission is exactly what has staled woman's intelligence and brilliance. To hear a once fiercely independent female fighting against every aspect of her surrounding patriarchal environment makes for great admiration. Although expected during his time, it is truly a shame that to see a colossal historical figure as Mr. Shakespeare write on the place of women in the world.
The sad thing is most people don't know she left her husband in the end, basically, she was never tamed by him at all, no matter how much she was pushed
Is it in the story? If not, please don't embellish it... We're supposed to be Adults...Lies do not become us.
People foolishly mistake "strong" for "shrew" and even in these days they do this.
There are things Women are built properly for.
There are things Men are the same.
There are pieces of a relationship wherein there IS a power dynamic. To deny this is to lie to yourself and others.
This movie highlights a reality that has absolutely nothing to do with, "the day," and everything to do with Human Nature...if you'd only stop to think about it for a moment.
nothing repugnant about truth. If you want to be the ideal wife, that are the rules to obey. IF not, you are not the ideal wife.
There’s a lot of dimensions to the whole thing. Despite what a lot of people say the play is still considered misogynistic even for the time it was written. It was framed as its being told to a drunk whose been fooled into thinking he’s a nobleman. Even for this age the play is a parody of actual love and the realistic relationship dynamic of a marriage.
Even still this end speech isn’t just simply her being broken depending on the portrayal or the production you find yourself watching. My main perception is despite how backward Petruchios whole “taming plan” is this end monologue more or less signals that he’s found a way to make Catherine channel her rage which at the start of this play was all consuming into a more measured and timed part of her personality. No one is fool enough to believe that Catherine has become a docile dotting woman but are moreso shocked that anyone could channel her fury into any kind of productive or protective marital love. They still view her as a shrew and him as drunk but are shocked that she’s actually become a good wife to Pertruccio at least at face value. For all we know it could be at best a very convincing disguise which a lot of people view her walking out without him as a symbol of.
How many men killed themselves coming back from the war to angry feminists before they made this movie?
Petrucio ligit my least favorite character in all of shakespeare
Mariando Walker Not sure if ANY of Shakespeare’s characters are written in a way suggesting we should like them. With exception to the real life royalty he writes about of course.
@@bradensorensen966 rufus sewell playing Petrucio is my favourite of all time

This is one of my favorite monologues, but, sorry Liz, you don't do iy justice. Fame does not mean the best.

I wish Patrice O'Neal was still alive to do analysis of the movie and the the underlying context, viewed through his philosophy.
He was misogynistic and abusive towards women so isn't it clear what he'd think?
@@ihatecomingupwithusernames2891 Curious, were Saints Paul and Peter misogynistic in your view?

I've often thought that, considering all the hostility between men and women that never seems to end, no matter what time period we're in, maybe we'd all be better off as gays and lesbians?
No.
@@TheNabOwnzz One word answer, short and to the point! (To be honest, I just threw that out there, don't really believe it.)
:)))

The Bible says a good woman is as a precious jewel...... It doesn't say however the fact that jewels are easier to find
bryce cook An obedient woman is a good woman...... not.

I agree 100% with her speech and I’m a 20-something year old woman…feminism has ruined us and she figured that out.
Ok kinky ass likes being degraded woman.
Twenty two angry feminists disliked this.
That´s the way to do it.
Equal Rights is just a euphemism for Manly Women and Womanly Men. Neither of which are fashionable or admired.
Thank the Gods somebody said it!!!its just getting worse!
Indeed.
I want some obedient wife like this, where will I find those womme nowadays lol 🤣
I dunno, depends on what you have to offer in return, pal. Works both ways.
@@lisalu910 man I can obviously have to return, I know, it's not like I'm billionaire but i am gonna take control of relationship and I'm ready to pay the bill and all, it's not like i want her to obey all the time but understanding is needed
Ugh! The failings of taming of the shrew.
Feminist's today would have an anurism at this scene.
