** Taming of the Kung Fu Shrew **
__ Taming of the Shrew and Kung Fu Hustle __

–The play Taming of the Shrew, and the movie Kung Fu Hustle. The characters I would like to analyze are Bianca and Lucentio from Taming of the Shrew. from Kung Fu Hutle I will be analyzing Sing and Fong. Sing and Fong were Childhood friends And she was picked on by some older kids who wanted to take her lollipop and he wanted to defend her. However He was then beat up and urinated on by the same people. So he tried to better himself so that he could and make her like him. In taming of the Shrew Lucentio wanted to marry Bianca but she didn't like or know him at first. He had to better their relationship before she accepted the marriage and they were wed. In a relationship men need to be less egotistical in order to gain the respect and love of the woman they are attempting to woo.

// After you have the intro, it's up to you how you organize your film stills and quotes. I chose to alternate between the play and the movie, starting off with the play. Put the play quotes in BIG FONT to give the reader something to latch on to. And remember to give enough CONTEXT in your captions for each quote and picture, or else the reader will be confused! //

// Here are sample formats you can use. For the play, start with a direct quote in a bigger font: //

**"I told you before** **I am Lucentio son unto Vincentio of Pisa** **disguised as thus to get your love** **and that lucentio that comes a-wooing** **is my man tranio** **bearingmy port** **that we might beguile the old platoon"**

--Act 3, Sc. 1, Lines 33-48


 * Lucentio confessing his feelings to Bianca.**

(Act x, Scene x, line numbers)

// A few sentences go after quote, including sufficient CONTEXT that tells the reader what's going on in "Shrew," and also a bit of ANALYSIS linking to your thesis. //

You then TRANSITION into your comparative scene from a movie. Include a transition sentence and then put in the screen shot:



//After the screen shot, you need to do the same thing that you did for the quote from "Shrew" -- sufficient context that describes what's happening in that scene, and analysis that connects back to your thesis (and states what the comparison and/or contrast is to "Shrew.)//

Then, you need a second (and possibly a third) set of comparisons: play, movie. Play, movie. Don't forget to use a larger font!

// Finally, you need your CONCLUSION. This paragraph should specifically mention BOTH the play and the movie, and touch on the central question of the assignment: // What do these portrayals show us about society's attitudes towards courtship/dating?
