Compare taming of the shrew 1967 to 10 things you hate about you in 1999?

The Taming of the Shrew had dialogue by William Shakespeare. The other movie did not. Their plots are similar, but the Shakespeare play was about the serious business of becoming permanently married and the other movie is about who will go with who to the dance. The motivations for Katherine's behaviour is totally different in the two movies.

How can you get a more recent film of The Taming of the Shrew?

I guess the first question is: more recent than what? The 1967 Franco Zeffirelli film is more recent than the 1929 Mary Pickford film. A film of the real play using Shakespeare's dialogue (not a different play with a vaguely similar plot like 10 things I hate about you) was made by the Stratford Shakespeare Festival in 2016.

Who is the shrew in The Taming of the Shrew and why?

The "shrew's" name is Katharina Minola. However, her sister Bianca and Petruchio refer to her as Kate. Hence, the famous line, "Kiss me Kate." Katherine is the oldest daughter of Baptista, Bianca's older sister, and later the wife of Petruchio. She is very ill tempered and very loud (shrew means nagging woman so it really fits Katherine's personality), and as a result nobody wants to court her or ask her hand in marriage until Petruchio comes. In the 1967 movie, Kate was Elizabeth Taylor's character.Another PerspectiveAlthough it seems as if Kate is the shrew, Bianca is the true shrew of the story. Kate is unloved, unwanted, and rejected by those around her which causes her to be bitter towards everyone. Bianca on the other hand is used to getting her way, pretends to be an angel, and is her father's favorite daughter. At the end of the book, both Bianca and Kate are summoned by their husbands - Kate obediently comes while Bianca refuses to answer his summon proving herself the true shrew of this Shakespearian play.

What are some modern movies made from Macbeth Taming of the Shrew and Othello?

I depends on how modern you are looking for. Some of the most well-known versions of the plays are already 50 years old or older. The most cinematic treatment of Macbeth is the 1971 movie directed by Roman Polanski, which still looks good. In a recent TV production in 2010, Patrick Stewart plays Macbeth. In addition, Michael Bogdanov directed a version of Macbeth in 1997. Both of these use modern costumes and sets with Shakespeare's dialogue. The most cinematic Taming of the Shrew is Zefirelli's 1967 movie with Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor. Again, it is still gorgeous, with period costumes and the original dialogue. Othello was made into a film in 1995 with Lawrence Fishburne as Othello and Kenneth Branagh as Iago. It's not bad. There have been some others since. Although it probably doesn't count as modern, the most striking cinematography in an Othello film is in Orson Welles' 1952 film. These films use Shakespeare's dialogue and have the same plots as Shakespeare's plays. There are others which borrow one plot element and a radically altered name, and still claim to be based on Shakespeare's plays, such as "O" or "Ten Things I Hate About You". Whether or not you find these films to be entertaining, they will certainly be of no assistance in understanding Shakespeare's plays, since their plot resolutions, character motivations, dialogue and dramatised incidents are totally different from those in the Shakespeare plays. They are really totally different stories. You may as well try to understand The Gospel of John by watching The Lord of the Rings.
