Released on March 31, 1999, 10 Things I Hate About You is a high-energy modernization of William Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. Set against the backdrop of a late-90s Seattle high school, the story follows Cameron James (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) as he attempts to circumvent a strict dating rule set by the overprotective father of his crush, Bianca Stratford (Larisa Oleynik). The plan involves hiring the school's mysterious "bad boy," Patrick Verona (Heath Ledger), to woo Bianca's abrasive and fiercely independent older sister, Kat (Julia Stiles). Known for its sharp script and iconic soundtrack, the film became a definitive teen classic of the decade.
