25.01.2022 Hello Film Club memebers, get ready for another set of awesome movies to catch in the next few weeks! This Wednesday! Film: 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU When: 19th of August 5PM... A cult classic and modern interpretation of Shakespeare's play Taming of the Shrew, starring Heath Ledger and Julia Styles. Retold in a late 1990's American High School setting, the story takes us through the dating troubles Bianca and Kat, whom are strictly not allowed to date by order of their father, until he lifts this rule on Bianca (desperately falling for new boy Cameron) to be allowed to date, but only if her shrewdish, ill-tempered sister Kat will also dates.
