This angers Bianca because she is keen to date but Kat clearly isn’t. Bianca is the youngest daughter and Kat is the eldest. Notice in both films, the younger daughter is named Bianca. Also notice a small difference, In Tame Of The Shrew, they call the eldest sister Katharina or Kate, but in 10 Things I Hate About you,
“Laugh as much as you choose, but you will not laugh me out of my opinion.” Jane ch 17 -Charles Bingley- Easily influenced and a nice man.

Elizabeth’s mother who is obsessed with husbands for her daughters. Attempting to push Elizabeth into a marriage with Mr. Collins.
Love drives the heart of the story. Nicks love for his cousin and his new found friends. Gatsby’s love for Daisy, Toms love for Daisy as well as his woman on the side, Myrtle and of course Myrtle’s husbands love for her, which leads him to the tragic ending of the film. The Classism is clearly shown that Gatsby’s soul reason for desiring and acquiring wealth is solely to capture the woman of his dreams heart by means of showing he can continue the rich and lavish lifestyle she has grown used to while married to her rich polo player of a husband. Also shown by the poor car mechanic husband of Myrtle being happily married and in love with his woman while the rich Tom comes around to woo his wife away secretly on her desire for a more financially stable and available man in her life.
As you can imagine, the pressure to marry well is high. When Elizabeth is slighted with the opportunity to meet a ravishing young fellow named Mr. Darcy, she is drawn in by his wit and charm. Mr. Darcy is by far the passionate choice in the war between passion and responsibility. Elizabeth didn’t much like Darcy at the beginning of the novel but once he admits what he does for Elizabeth’s younger and older sisters, she realizes that he couldn’t possibly be a bad man. The conflict begins with Elizabeth’s parents.
When she receives the ring from Gerald, she is immediately 'excited', and Priestley shows this in her speech with the use of dashes as she asks 'Mummy - isn't it a beauty?'. She shows appreciation of the 'perfect' ring to Gerald which shows she really is 'pleased with life' but almost possessed by Gerald.Although the Mr and Mrs Birling have been portrayed as arrogant, Sheila is contrasted to show compassion towards the conditions of the workers immediately when she hears about her father's treatment of Eva Smith - when she says 'these girls aren't cheap labour - they're people'. This shows how at the start of the play she is the only character so far that is capable of change, after Mr Birling denies all responsibility of the death of Eva Smith. Sheila is devastated when she realises her part in Eva Smith's death, she feels full of guilt for
Logan is Janie’s first stop to becoming a strong, independent woman. She stands up to him when she leaves with Joe, taking another step to a better life. Joe’s forcing of Janie to be just an object and symbol of his political power causes Janie to rebel and spring up from her lowly position. This prepares Janie for her next husband, Tea Cake, whom she will eventually not be completely dependent on. This, in my opinion, is one of her greatest achievement.
We also find out in chapter one that she wants her daughter to be a “beautiful little fool” cause according to her that’s the only thing a female can actually be, just look beautiful and be a ‘little fool’ not be smart on an intellectual level. Her face was described as sad yet “full of bright little things” which leads me to my next point which is her relationship with her husband, the only reason why she married Tom was because he’s a bourgeoisie and he is well known and as she said “rich girls can’t marry poor boys” this quote emphasises her materialistic

Hedda Gabler Study Guide Questions Act I 1. In the opening pages, Mr. Tesman (George) seems to be a very bright intellectual. He strives to become a professor (specifically studies history) and was raised by his loving aunt. The action of George allowing his aunt to mortgage her annuity to provide security on the expensive new house does not lead me to believe that he is “selfish”, but more appreciative of his aunt’s sacrifices ("Oh, Auntie, will you never be tired of making sacrifices for me!"). It also leads me to believe that he is not the best well off (money wise).
She excited Gatsby in the way that “... many men had already loved Daisy- it increased her value in his eyes”(149); she was untouchable . Myrtle Wilson is another character who desired a life far from the one she was living. She married George Wilson, a hardworking car mechanic who loved her, yet pursued Tom Buchanan, a narcissistic, married, violent man. Tom offered Myrtle an escape from her simplistic lifestyle and provided her with the luxuries that Wilson could not give her. Myrtle yearned to be the epitome of Tom’s desires by wearing fancy dresses and deeming herself as higher than her class (31).
