 * There is no race problems in "Taming of the shrew" but there is in "Guess Who". The Father in "Taming of the shrew" is more of a king and has not just order over his daughters but also other people. The kind usually arranges the weddings. but in guess who it is modern day and people do not have arranged marriages anymore so the daughter picks who she falls in love with. not because of money or of how popular a guy is. Just because the father does not arrange the marriage does not mean he is happy with it. He is more upset then baptista is.**
