Porter's last big Broadway hit was ''Kiss Me, Kate,'' which was made into a motion picture (in 3D, although it is now rarely shown that way) and has had many revivals. It is a sort of adaptation of [[William Shakespeare|William Shakespeare's]] ''[[The Taming of the Shrew]],'' in which characters in a production of that play have experiences in their own lives that parallel those in the play. It includes one song, "I Am Ashamed That Women Are So Simple," in which Porter uses a passage from Shakespeare's play, without alteration, as the lyrics for the song.
