Haha I did this one! I have to admit I hate the movie but I prefer the it’s characters to that of those in The Taming of the Shrew. What I would suggest though would be to anylize Heath Ledger's character and that of and don't compare them to each other but compare how the characters were viewed by the two very different generations that enjoyed this saga and focus on how it was adapted for the 20th century. Also focus on how (in the film) they portrayed Kate as being the freethinking, liberated, misunderstood heroine as opposed to the cantankerous, brash female Shakespeare had created.
The movie was obviously made to target the frustrated teen crowd. Something that is easy to see through the character of Bianca, who, instead of being the ideal, attractive, sweet, submissive female, was portrayed as the stereotype, goody-two-shoes younger sister.

But that's just my opinion. Hope I've been of some help.
