The Taming of the Shrew
ELIZABETH TAYLOR and RICHARD BURTON are at their comedic best (Janet Maslin, The New York Times) in FRANCO ZEFFIRELLI's zesty film adaptation of William Shakespeare's THE TAMING OF THE SHREW – a comic look at male chauvinism and women's lib in the 16th century. Not just a filmed version of the Bards beloved romp, this lively cinematic event features an outstanding support cast, gorgeous sets and photography plus a magical musical score by NINO ROTA. A sumptuous production on every level, THE TAMING OF THE SHREW easily ranks as one of the finest Shakespeare adaptations ever filmed.
