Italy, 16th century. Petruchio, a choleric, lying and poor rural landowner from Verona, arrives in Padua in search of fortune and a wife, while Baptista, a wealthy merchant, announces that he will not allow Bianca, his youngest daughter, to marry until the temperamental and unruly Katherina, his eldest daughter, does.

This film takes a little too much time setting up the story, but once Taylor's Kate and Burton's Petruchio meet, almost 40 minutes into the film, it goes into the entertainment stratosphere.
