Everyone has those certain movies that have a special place in our heart. We are undeniably biased towards it for whatever reason. Whether it came out and related to us at that time in our life, or the love was like our current love, but for me with this film, it was released when I was a senior in high school. This was such a huge hit with me and everyone in my class at the time. It just clicked. It was so relatable to us, as high schoolers trying to figure it all out. This movie did such a good job of segregating the classes high schoolers still face to this day. You've got the jocks, geeks, stoners, preps, male models, and neutrals. The neutral's really don't have a specific place in any group, but they can wander between several groups with no one noticing whether they belong there at that time. Our Hero, yea I said Hero, played by the awesome Joseph Gordon Levitt is in love with a girl, Bianca, that is "out of his class". Does that keep him from trying? NOPE. Hero qualities. He is smart enough to devise a plan not only to get noticed, but also score a bit of a pity date with his princess. She, on the other hand, just uses him as so many women do to the nice guys in their lives. Heath Ledger's first big screen film released in the U.S. He is so great as the brooding, dark, mysterious, transfer student. This does not stop Cameron (J G Levitt) from approaching him with a business deal. The Deal? Well, Bianca's father, a gynecologist, will not let her date unless her older sister dates. His plan is quite smart, because he knows her older sister hates to go out and party, and she never has any boyfriends. Cameron hires Patrick (Ledger) to court Bianca's big sister, Kat. She is undateable, according to her classmates. Not because she against it, she just does not want to conform to what is "normal", and she's a bit of a bitch. Two completely different people on the scene. Bianca and Kat really don't mesh as siblings, and they act it so well. Does our Hero get the girl? Do the douche bags pay for their sins? Watch and see. Like I said, I am biased, but I'm sure there are a few films out there, that you feel the same way about.
