The deliciously witty back-and-forth banter between Darcy and Elizabeth is what makes Pride and Prejudice such a standout, and it's that same quality that makes this beloved teen comedy totally iconic. Loosely based on Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew, it's got many of the same elements as Pride and Prejudice: two very different sisters who both have romantic problems, romantic leads who loathe each other at first sight, an arrogant playboy, and a happy ending after some troubles. The crux of the plot is bad boy Patrick agreeing to try to woo the fiercely independent Kat, all so that her sister, Bianca, has a chance to date, too. The lies and half-truths all tumble out eventually, and everyone has some self-growth to do before they can find (and accept) love.
